The publish option is only active for a resource plan once the project has been published. I know I need to publish my resource plan – but the publish option is greyed out?Ī. Usually you should see the resource plans migrate by the following day. We migrate the resource plans in Project Online in low activity periods so this does not affect the normal operation of the service. I’ve activated – but my Additional Server Settings page still says 0 resource plans migrated – what is happening?Ī. You can do this in another test PWA instance at the same time that you continue with existing behavior if you have any portfolio analysis to do – for example. We aren’t asking you to test the new feature to see if it works – we have done that – but we realize that the new feature handles resource management in a different way than Project Online has previously – so best that you try out the new stuff to understand how it works and how your organization will use it. Why do we need to test in another PWA instance? Haven’t you tested this anyway?Ī. Later in the post I will walk though an example.
We don’t carry the team over – just the rows with data. Similarly, if a resource plan contains resources with and without resource plan time-phased data then only those resources with data will get migrated as engagements. So if your resource plan is just a set of resources with no actual data for any time periods they will not get migrated.
The second reason they will not get migrated is if the resource plans do not contain any time-phased data. And publishing of a resource plan is a separate step to publishing the project plan – so be sure any resource plans you require to be migrated to resource engagements are published. We will only migrate PUBLISHED resource plans. There are a couple of reasons you may think this. Some of my resource plans do not appear to have been migrated?Ī. We will of course announce this before it happens. Also remember that you cannot put off the migration indefinitely for Project Online – this time next year (October 2016) we will be activating the feature for any sites that have not already activated. But it is only displayed for administrators in PWA – or more precisely those users with Manage Server Configuration global permissions. Can I get rid of the yellow banner? I don’t want to activate the feature yet.Ī. We have also had a few questions around the feature come through support so I’ll answer some of them here: We should now be at 100% in terms of the roll-out of the Resource Management feature to our Project Online customers – so all of you have the chance to activate the feature – and we do still recommend that you first do this on your non-production tenant (you have 7 PWA instances you can create – so add a new one if you need to) just so you can become familiar with the new feature.
