Webforms with Microsoft Project

Hello,
Our requirement is, we need to open Microsoft Project with a link in webforms. The microsoft project (.mpp) file will be placed in a folder on the network drive. We are using Forms 6i running on UNIX environment and MS project 2002 professional edition.
If possible what libraries do I need to use within webforms?
I will be happy to provide more information if asked.
Thanks in advance,
Arun.

Arun,
you don't need to do antything in Forms. Just define a MIME type on the client browser to open MS Projects each time a file of type mpp gets downloaded. A similar MIME type needs to be defined on the server to determine the client application that should be launched.

Hi,
It all depends of what you want to accomplish, but both MS Project and SAP B1 have SDK's so yes, it's possible to integrate both the applications.

Using Flex with Microsoft Project

I am absolutely brand new to FLEX. What I saw on the Adobe
site was a data chart that could be drilled down to expose
additional layers of "contriburory detail" for the master graph.
What I am wondering is if it is possible to do something
similar using Micrsoft Project Data as the basis. MS Project will
allow users to save the file as XML. So, all the data should be
available in a form understandable to FLEX.
Here's the tricky part (and I can add more detail if needed).
Project will create a summary line (at some level of indentue) and
show you a calculated %Complete such as 47%. So, level of indenture
1 I have the major summary tasks of the project at various status
of %Complete. I believe FLEX can make some type of bar or pie chart
out of that for me. What I want to do is click on a "Level1"
indenture and have it expose the Level2 indure that contributes to
that 47%. Then drill on one of the Level2's to Level3 .... to Level
"n".
This needs to be accomplished in "stand alone" fashion so the
ultimate user can launch a desktop application and tell the
application the name of the Microsoft Project XML file. We will not
be able to use Client/Server ... client side only with the file
located either locally or at least on a network drive.
Can this be done? Has anyone looked at a MS Project XML
schema to see if there is sufficeint information available?
OK, now the blunt truth. It ain't %Complete that I care
about. What I care about is BCWS, BCWP, ACWP, %Complete, and a few
other parameters. These are the "Earned Value Fields". If you do
not know what they are, don't worry about it just now .... it is
really all just time phased data.
Can anyone give me some advice or an opinion? TIA.

Integration with Microsoft project

Hi
I am trying to create a ECC project from MSP(using OPENPS). However one of the field in SAP is mandatory at project definition(ex Company code). But I cant see the same field in MSP hence system does not create any project and showing a message enter the Company Code.
I created a column in microsoft project as "Company code" but it did'nt work. Please suggest how to create project in this case.
Thanks & Regards
Aby

Hi,
OPENPS can not handle different company codes. It takes company code mentioned in the project profile.
You can try different project profiles for each company code.
You can also make the company code field as input field and then make changes manually after uploading from OPENPS. Can make a BDC or LSMW for this also.
Try MPS tool, but it is not free tool, it works on top of OPENPS so you still need OPENPS installed on your system but MPS gives many more options to work with; download its free version and test if it can fulfill your requirement.

Has anyone Connected a Crystal Report directly to a Microsoft Project file (MPP)?

Post Author: Brian Morris
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Iu2019m aware I can save Microsoft Project Files (MPP) to an Access Database, Excel document etc. and there are ways to connect to a Microsoft Project Server.
I wanted to know if anyone has managed to connect directly to one though. Currently we use MPPs to report project status and other deliverables, and itu2019s been an annoyance to have to save the project file then export the data over into a new excel document when ever we have changes (since not all users have project or need all the data in the file).
Preferably, a user should be able to save that project file and anyone that has the Crystal report should be able to run the report against the MPP file. In addition to this, it would be extremely helpful in getting a formalized and nicely formatted report when running reports against rational and MMP files, thus giving an alternative from SODA reports in Microsoft word, which doesnu2019t always work well.
Thanks!

CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
Ok, I answered my own question on the connection issue, but I'm having issues with the predefined fields that enter into the report. The Database Expert shows the correct table names, but when I select them and look at the fields, they are all showing fields that are part of the "Project" table. when I use "Add Command" and use SQL to do a "Select * From TableName" ,where TableName is the name of the respective table, I get the data I'm looking for. Has anyone else run into this error? Is the error on Crystal Reports side or the Data provider's OLE DB driver? Has anyone with a fully patched system encountered the same errors?
Current SetupCrystal Version: 11.0.0.1282CR Professional; Product Type:FullOLE DB Driver: Microsoft Project 10.0 OLE DB Provider
I have pasted my findings below, hopefully other people won't have the same issues I did trying to find this information. if anyone else wants to test and see if they get the same issues I did it would be greatly appreciated.
Connecting a Crystal Report XI to a Microsoft Project File (MPP)
Prerequisites (as I know them)
- Have an installation of Crystal Reports on the machine (a given)
- Have Microsoft Project 2000/2003 installed OR the Microsoft Project OLE DB provider which is installed with Microsoft Project (NOTE: Microsoft 2007 supposedly no longer supports OLE DB and requires an OLAP cube be made or a SOAP connection be used, which I donu2019t deal with personally)
Creating the connection
Start Crystal Reports
Click u201CBlank Reportu201D on the start page
in the u201CDatabase Expertu201D window, under u201CAvailable Data Sourcesu201D, Select u201C+u201D next to u201CCreate New Connectionu201D
Select the u201C+u201D beside u201COLE DB(ADO)u201D
If a u201COLE DB (ADO)u201D window does not come up, double click u201CMake New Connectionu201D
In the u201Cprovider:u201D box Select the u201CMicrosoft Project 10.0 OLE DB Provideru201D
The name may be different depending on the version of project you install and the patch you have on the machine
Select u201CNext >u201D
Under u201CDatabase:u201D copy/paste in the path and project file name
I donu2019t believe the other fields u201CData Source:u201D, u201CUser ID:u201D, or u201CPasswordu201D need to be filled out, and in fact, I got an error when entering in data into them
Example: u201CC:\Projects\Project Name\Current Schedule.mppu201D
Select u201CNext >u201D
In the Advaned information window, verify the project Name is the path of the project.
I have not found the use of u201CEnterprise Modeu201D (default: 0), u201CAlways Loadu201D (default: 0), u201COLE DB Servicesu201D(default: -5), or u201CEnterprise RUID Listu201D (default: blank), removing them or changing them did cause errors though.
Click u201CFinishu201D
Adding in Tables and extracting data
You now have a connection to the project File you listed. There is an issue Iu2019ve found though that all the tables you see listed are filling their fields in from the u201CProjectu201D Table, rather then their respective tables (Example: u201CAssignmentsu201D is pointing at u201CProjectu201D rather then the obvious connection u201CAssignmentsu201D). You can, however, use the u201CAdd Commandu201D and select the table you want with just a little SQL code:
Select *
From Assignments
After creating the command, highlight it and hit u201CF2u201D. You should be able to edit the name and change it from u201CCommandu201D to something more meaningful. At the current time Iu2019m unsure if the issue with the default tables all pointing toward the project table is an error on the provider side or Crystal Reports end, and if one of the new patches will fix it. I will update this document accordingly when I have more information and do more testing. I will note however, there is no way to change which table these preset fields point to.
Thank you for your time.

Microsoft Project Standard vs. Microsoft Project Professional

Hey gang,
I always thought that the difference between Standard and Professional could be summed up this way:
One of them (Professional) permits you to connect to Microsoft® Project Server (particularly now in version 2013).
However, in reading this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc750929.aspx
It states:
" ... Microsoft Project Standard can be used stand-alone, or in combination with Microsoft Project Server for more advanced team collaboration..."
Is this true/ correct? Can Project Standalone 2013 connect to Project Server???
\Spiro Theopoulos PMP, MCITP. Montreal, QC (Canada)

Hi Spiro, This article applied to 2002 version. I do not have enough experience with Project 2002 to confirm it, but at least since Project 2003, you do need MS Project Pro in order to create an account and connect to Project Server.
Hope this helps,

Incorrect Duration while integrating MSP with Oracle Projects (OP)

Please help with regard to the below mentioned issue:
1. Created a WBS in MSP file. (Task T1.1 Duration = 5d in MSP)
2. Created a project from MSP. The structure used is a partially shared structure.
3. The duration received in OP is not the same as that in MSP. (Task T1.1 Duration = 7d in OP)
4. Entered progress for the project in OP.
5. Received the workplan (WBS) from OP into the same MSP file, the duration was neither 5d nor 7d but 1.67 d.(Task T1.1 Duration = 1.67d in MSP)
The calendar used in MSP is a standard calendar 5 days * 8 hrs. Which calendar in OP is being used for calculating the duration? I've defined a schedule calendar that is attached to the project template in Additional Information. The schedule calendar is 6 days * 8 hrs.
Regards,
Sahoo

The Scheduled Start and/or Finish dates in Oracle Projects are not used by MSP to schedule a project if task level Scheduling Options have been populated in Oracle Projects. Constraint Type/Date, Scheduled Duration and Slack fields are used to schedule the project in MSP, not the Scheduled Dates.
To review the Scheduling Options for a task:-
Projects: Delivery -> Search Projects [Find project and open it]
Go to the Workplan tab
Update the current working version of the workplan
Update a task (using the pencil icon) in the workplan
In the Task Details page, select the Schedule sub-tab
Expand the Options section at the bottom of the page
To sumamrise, if you schedule a project in MSP then you should continue to use MSP for all scheduling activity on that project. Updates to the scheduled dates in Oracle Projects will be ignored when the plan is downloaded to MSP. MSP will build the plan based on the following fields:-
Constraint Type
Constraint Date
Free Slack
Total Slack
Task Type (Schedule task type, not to be confused with Oracle task type)
Scheduled Duration (not to be confused with the difference between the Scheduled Start and Finish dates in Oracle Projects)
Actual Duration
Remaining Duration
Effort Driven Flag
Level Assignments Flag
This is all not documented very well in the Oracle Projects manuals, and comes as a surprise to most users. Some useful additional reading can be found on MOS:-
