Unable to make master project containing sub-projects using Project Online PWA (Cloud)

Can anybody help? I tried a lot of navigations in Project Online PWA (not project server) but still unable to make master project containing sub-projects using Project Online PWA (Cloud)

Hi John,
It isn't possible to do this in the Project Web App either in Project Online or Project Server - you will need to use Project Professional 2013 and connect to your Project Online instance, or the subscription version, Project Pro for Office 365.
Best regards,
Brian Smith

HT1918 I'm unable to make iTune purchases from my phone using my iTune gift card

I'm unable to make iTune purchases from my phone using my iTune gift card, the gift card information is entered on the phone and I can see the credit amount.

I am having the same problem and it is REALLY frustrating.
Exact setup that you have, COMCAST, PayPal, etc....
I have reviewed my account three times with my PayPal info and received confirmation from my PayPal Account but it still won't let me log in. Let me know if you hear anything.
This is a REAL PAIN.

Hello,
Unfortunately Project Professional 2010 will not connect to Project Online / Project Server 2013. You will need to use Project Professional 2013 to connect to Project Online / Project Server 2013. Project Pro 2010 will only connect to Project Server 2010.

Error opening Project 2007 file after using project 2010

This is the second time I'm experiencing this problem.
Created a file (say Rev 1) in Project 2007 at work and took it home and updated it using Project 2010. When I finished updating using Project 2010, I saved the file in Project 2007 format. Came to work the next day, opened the file using
Project 2007 and did a "Save As" so that I have another revision of the file (Rev 2).
After updating Rev 2 in Project 2007 I closed it but when I came to work the next day I couldn't open Rev 2 file again either in Project 2007 or 2010. This has happened to me with 2 different files.
The error message I get is
An unexpected error occured during command execution.
Try the following:
Verify that all argumen names and values are correct and are of the correct type.
You may have run out of memory. To free up available memory, close programs, projects, or windows that you aren't using.

It seems to me that it has to do something with invalid characters in the file name of the timeline. Or it could be anything from an '&' to two concurrent spaces, mulitple '.' or even a dash (-). Stick with single spaces, letter and
number combinations and you should be fine. The problems arise based on how the file has been opened. Here’s one thread like yours. It could be useful for your, read http://www.filerepairforum.com/forum/microsoft/microsoft-aa/project/625-project-error-“an-import-error-occurred”

Unable to Split pdf form containing Digital Signature using Assembler

Hi All,
I am trying to split a pdf form into multiple forms using Assembler service provided by Adobe LiveCycle. Normal pdf's are getting splitted but facing issues with pdf's containing Digital Signature is there any way to split those forms please suggest ?????
Regards,
Ali

Hello,
We have a livecycle form that allows people to save an image with an image field and other data in some text fields.
The users having problems are using Acrobat Pro XI. They seem to be able to open the form, fill in some data and save the data just fine except for this image.
The image does not display when the user re-opens the form. However, if another user opens that saved form then that user can see the image OK.
Any ideas what might be happening?
Thank you.

Unable to connect Project Professional (dekstop) 2010 to Project online cloud enviornment

How do you use projects?

I am an old hand at LabVIEW, but new to LabVIEW projects.
I've used projects in other languages, and understand them fine.
But I'm having real trouble making LV projects work FOR me.
The ONE good thing I found is that I can place a VI into the HOST target or the PXI target, and LV knows to run it on the host, or run it on the PXI,
Great.
Beyond that, what do they do FOR you?
If I double click on my main LLB file, the LOADING box comes up after about 420 VIs, and shows progress up to about 950, then PRESTO, my main window is there, ready to go.
If the PROJECT that contains this VI is open, though, after the LOADING is done, I get 10-12 seconds of an empty window frame (the size and title of my main VI), before it draws the front panel and is ready.
If that's a benefit, then somebody explain it to me, because I just don't get it.
If I drag an LLB into the project, I don't understand what happens. I get a FOLDER with the current CONTENTS of the LLB in it. But if I put something new into the LLB, it does NOT show up in the project folder for that LLB. Isn't it obvious that I want to put the whole library into the project?
If my MAIN vi is in the project, and it calls subVIs A,B, and C, what benefit is there to putting "A" into the project, versus leaving it out? Everything still works, as far as I can tell.
In what circumstances should I leave OUT subVI "A"?
Do I have to put all 950+ VIs into the project to enjoy a benefit? Since it's unable to follow libraries properly, that becomes a giant PITA.
Basically, how do you make them work FOR you?

Blog for (mostly LabVIEW) programmers: Tips And Tricks

I'm quite a fan of the project (maybe because I naive (?) thought if NI thinks we need it, I'll probably need it)
The shift you have to make to embrace the project is that it is a storage room for everything related to your code. It's not a mirror of your desktop (for that we have explorer).
Just like every new feature it has its bugs....
One of the things I love, is the ability to have one installer for several executables!
The ability to have good tweakable bld file for distributions, easily adjust external routines for different tasks.
The project itself is quite accesible from within LV, the only thing I miss is a 'get current project' method for VIs, but I can see why this is not available.

Projects not showing up between project pro and project web app

I have projects that I created using project standard. Now that I have a subscription to project pro for office 365 and project online, I wanted to import these projects. If I use project pro and save a project to office365, it doesn't show up on
the project web app side. Yet I know it is there because if I try and save with the same name it says it can't because it already exists. Similarly, if I create a project on the project web app side and then try and open it using project pro, it
errors out and won't open it.

Hi,
If I understand well, you had standalone projects that you'd like to import on Project Online?
Then you just have to open MS Project (connnected to your project server) then SAVE AND PUBLISH it. Be sure to fill any required information such as project custom fields.
What is the error you get while opening Project Pro? Has the project been correctly published from PWA (not just saved, and no error message in the queue)? Then is Project Pro connected to your project server?
Hope this helps.

Unable to Open Project Site Access Denied Issue Project 2013

This issue is happening to select projects and select project managers, they can view certain project sites but receive the error on other projects. After some extensive testing
it looks like if the PM is the owner of the project plan they are not getting added to any of the synced groups for the project site. I can change the project owner to any another PM and it processes correctly and adds them to the PM synced group on
the Project site. As soon as I make the original PM the Project plan owner again the previous PM gets removed from the PM synced group and added to the Team member synced group, the way its supposed to work. However the PM with the problem never
gets added to any group. I have to manually add them to the non-synced Owner group on the project site so they don't get removed from the synced PM group the next time the sync runs at midnight.
As I stated it is happening on select project plans and select PMs. I have tried replublishing the project plan via Project professional and the web and the results are the same.
If I create a new project plan and assign one of the PMs with the issue to the plan everything works correctly. We noticed the issue a few weeks ago; most of the plans with the issue are several months to a year old so they were working correctly until
recently. They had also made PM owner changes prior to the issue on most of those plans and everything worked correctly.
If anyone is experiencing this issue and has a fix please let me know. I am trying not to open an MS support ticket if possible.
Frank Miranda Florida Hospital MIS

I believe I've found the fix for this issue. After opening a ticket with MS support and not getting anywhere with this issue I decided to do an in-depth review of all the Project and SharePoint 2013 CU's starting with December 2013 to September 2014.
To my amazement buried inside the July 2014 CU was a hotfix for this issue described almost word for word. (I will list all the relevant KB's at the end) I contacted my support engineer inquiring about this hotfix and he stated it wasn't relevant because
the "Synchronize Project Web App permissions to Project Site" was not failing or even generating any warnings in our Prod or Test environments. I stated that is not always an indicator as ULS doesn't always catch all relevant errors.
I informed him that I also found a second hotfix pertaining to the same issue released August 2014, apparently the first hotfix in July didn't totally resolve the issue and a second hotfix was released. He was adamant that this would not resolve
our issue and he requested or production databases because he was unable to replicate the issue in his test environment. The reason, you may wonder, is because he was at a higher patch level that our farm.... Obviously! His farm had the most current
CU which included the hotfixes from July and August. Apparently he didn't see the flaw in his logic.
I decided to install the September CU on our test farm. Low and behold that fixed the problem, even though MS support stated the hotfix was not relevant to our issue. I learned a long time ago to take MS support comments as suggestions instead
of gospel truth, this isn't the first time they have confidently given me erroneous information.
We are currently doing further testing to verify that this CU didn't break something else. Unfortunately these rollups are not GA and Microsoft is very clear that you should only install them if the hotfixes pertain directly to your issue.
Finding the hotfixes was a chore as Microsoft loves to create multiple KB's for the same thing and then nest (bury) them so you have to dig through four or five KB's to find the relevant fix. I'll save you the trouble and list them below.
Watch the
September CU Webcast Brian Smith and team go into depth explaining why this issue has been happening and how they fixed it.

Change a Sub-Project to be a "standalone" project

I have searched but cannot find an easy answer to this.
I am working with someone who created a Master Project and sub-projects using Project Server 2010 and then deleted the master project, the sub-projects can now only be accessed in PWA if the sub-project tick box is checked.
I know that Project uses a numeric identifier to distinguish between, master, sub-project, standalone and "Resource Pool" in a .mpp file based use of the tool. I assume that a similar numeric identifier exists in the Project Server database. Does
anyone know how to edit this value to change the status of a "sub-project" to a "standalone" project?
I saw a previous post from Marc Soester about opening the "orphaned" sub-projects and making a nominal change and then re-publishing the project, can it really be as simple as that to fix this issue?

I am trying to render a movie in ilife 11. Error appears: Unable to prepare project for publishing. The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occured. (project is too large). It is only 1:39:00. Any ideas? Thanks! Marv

this error occurs. Unable to prepare project for publishing. The project could not be prepared for publishing because an error occured. (Project is too Long)
I know this isn't true, as it is only 1:39:31. I have a mac with 160mb and 160 gb available. Could this be the problem? If so how can I remove some things to make room? Thanks!!

By exporting to the right format a movie of an hour and forty minutes could potentially use up 160 GB, exactly what format are you exporting to. additionally I'm not clear what you mean when you say your mac has 160 MB and 160 GB available.

Sub-contracting through Project system.

Hi
Can some one please help me in understanding how Project system (PS) is supporting sub-contracting scenarios.
I am looking for activity sub-contracting and also sub-contracting with Project stock materials.
I am aware of normal sub-contracting through production order and also sub-contracting through MM. I am specifically looking for sub-contracting in PS.
Thanks and warm regards,
Jagadeesh

Hi,
If requirements for subcontract items (or services) are generated automatically from PS just make sure that the right document category is used (subcontract) then any requisitions or planned orders etc. will have the right category.
There is no difference between PP, PS and PM effectively, they all use subcontracting in the same way it is just how the requirement is triggered that is slightly different.
If you need details on how to trigger the right type of requirement through PS then you may need to use one of teh financial forums that cover PS? (is there one?)

How to make the 'Finish Date' field Editable in Project server 2013

Hi All,
In Project server 2013 on premises deployment, When I try to create a new enterprise project [Also in case of new custom project type], Only the 'Start Date' field is available. The 'Finish Date' field is by default taking the value of the 'start Date' itself.
I am unable to make this 'Finish Date' field editable.
Any pointers on this would be very helpful,
Thanks
Shanky

Shanky --
When you create a new project in either Microsoft Project Professional or Project Online, the system does not allow you to enter both a Start date and a Finish date for the project. Here is how the software works:
You enter the Start date of the project.
You completely plan the project with tasks, task dependencies, task Durations, and assigning resources to tasks.
Based on the Start date you provide, plus all of the task information, the software calculates the Finish date of the project for you. So, you cannot provide both the Start date and the Finish date, nor is they any way to force the system to allow
you to do this. Hope this helps.

Main Projects and Sub Projects

Guys,
This is my scenario.
The projects that we are going to work has got a lot of activities and needs to be brought in to Project System. Since there will be a regular changes in the project and rescheduling to be done, the person who is responsible for the whole project will not be able to do the process regularly.
We have come up with the thought of distributing the work to different departments such as PED , RND, PURCH, QLTY etc... such that, each deaprtment Project* their work with different WBS elements (hopefully using CJ11) and finally all these wbs elements being connected to the Project definition which is created by the project manager. If there are any changes made to the WBS element the dates should be automatically rescheduled, which is available in SAP PS.
This can be a sub project kind of an idea. Minor projects under One main Major Project.
Or for eg.. Multiple projects of a department under the Departments' Project definition.
So guys, let me know if this concept could be done in PS.
Any kind of help will be really appretiated.
Pls reply if you have any doubts in the scenario.
Thx.
Sbks.

Nitin,
Hope that you understood my scenario, and as I could do it partially with your reply.
To be more clear from my side. Our plan crosses department wise rather that the projet plan flow. You can find the eg below.
1. The Project manager would create the project definition and would communicate this to all the dept heads and wait for them to create the WBS elements.
2. The dept heads would Project* their plan in to the system individually, entering the duration for each activity. This process is done by the cross functioning departments working on the same project.
3. The dept plan would later be linked to the Project definition by the project manager himself, and as the duration is already given scheduling would be carried out subsequently by the project manager.
Current Plan.
Design
Complete drawing - RND
Flow analysis - Design Dept
Design Approval process - PED and MKTG
Machines
Identify Supplier - PED
Get plan from machine manufacturer - PED
Getting quotation - PED
Negotiate & finalise - PURCH
Raise a Procurement Requisition - PURCH
Manufacturing - SUPPLIER
Receipt - PED
Installation & commissioning - PED & QLTY
Tools
Identify tool - PED
Prepare tool list - PED
Decide make / supplier - PED
Get quotation for standard tool - PURCH
Raise a Procurement Requisition - PURCH
Receipt and Calibration - PED & QLTY
The Plan goes on....
As you can see the activities that are given above involves inter-dept employees.
This is the plan what we have in mind..
Plan from Marketing
Plan from Design
Plan from AEG
Plan from RND
Plan from Purchase
Plan from Quality.
Instead of following the Activity Flow we were thinking of a Department wise flow.
Could this be done in Project system.
Pls Help.
Regrds
Sbks.

Can I make multiple set of Quiz in one project ?

My project is a computer multimedia lesson , It's contain 12
Units and there are 12 exams and 12 test ,
Can I make 12+12 Quiz and there individual result pages...
or another way i can manage It ,,, in off-line base.
thank you...

A simple approach would be to create a single 1-slide menu
project that has buttons/click boxes that link to your other
projects using the "open in new window" option.
You can also create multi-unit "modules" by linking together
multiple projects using the "Open other project" option in the
Project preferences. This allows you to string together any
combination of files, such as:
lesson -> quiz -> another lesson -> another quiz
-> test
If you open the materials in a new window from the "menu",
you don't have to worry about linking back. The menu is always open
underneath whatever content the user is looking at. If you go into
the Project properties of the last lesson in a "module", you can
set the "Project end" option to "Close project" and the user will
effectively be shown the menu when the project closes.
