Project Online functionality
All, I started a new role with a company, and I have been a few years out of the saddle with MS Project. It seems that the newest version Project Online is set to replace the local version. My question is how well does Project Online integrate with MS Planner? The goal would be to publish a project and have the tasks populate in Planner, with completed tasks feeding back to Project Online. I heard this was true but seeking confirmation. Thanks for any input or suggestions on how best to accomplish this process.
Accessing Sharepoint Project (PWA) with Service principale
I have been trying to find a way to fetch all Tasks from an Enterprise Project on Sharepoint Project Online (PWA), using an app registration (clientId, secret). Current testing from a C# net6 console app (don't want to use .net framework). All the examples i have found using rest or csom uses username/passord, don't want to use that. Does any know if this is possible ?
MS Project Task Pane Add-in to use other browser than IE11
UPDATE: I just figured the root cause is due to office.js task pane add-ins is always using IE11. I'm updating this post title to see if anyone knows a way to switch the default browser being used by the office task pane to any other browser than IE? Hello all. I have some dev requirements that involves developing an office add-ins app for MS Project Desktop. I'm trying to utilize the MS Project task pane add-ins to load some sort of Grid/Table that will populate some data associated with the tasks in MS Project by calling an external web service/API. I also need to use the app so I can use the provided office.js library that allows reading/writing data to the project file. I have been following the development steps and template from this link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/project/project-add-ins I was able to achieved what the above link provided: So to achieve my requirements, I'm tweaking the template given from the link above and I try to utilize/add a framework (Sencha JS - our company's product line has been using this for consistency) that basically templatize the queried data in a grid/table. However, the task pane add-ins remain blank and doesn't show anything at all. But if I take the sideloaded html page into a browser, that works fine and shows what I wanted. Here is a snapshot of some dummy data with super basic grid that is successfully loaded when using browser: And here is the snapshot of the task pane that remains blank: I was wondering if anyone has ever done something that somewhat similar to this? I'm basically trying to load a custom web page in the task-pane for viewing purposes (Important - main requirement) on these data queried from an external sources and also the need to be able to read/write task data into the local project file. Therefore, I thought the app add-ins is the perfect combination. Any insight/advice is really appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Project Web App Timesheets Existing Assignments not showing all projects
Hi All, I'm new to the Project Web App but have set up the timesheets according to the MS guides. I'm having an issue on the timesheets where my colleague and I can only see the projects we own in the 'existing assignments' list. We have pooled resources here and we all work across multiple projects, so I need to be able to book time to projects I don't own and have team member be able to book time to my projects. I have assigned everyone as resources to all projects, so I assumed that that would make it possible to book to those projects, but that doesn't seem to be the case - how can I make it so that everyone can see all the projects they are resources for when completing their timesheets?
Gannt Chart - Planning for Delays
I own a residential construction company and am currently building a schedule for a project to start in a few weeks. My scheduling is typically pretty good; however, ever since COVID hit, it's been a wreck. Ex. I currently have a project that is 2 months behind (9 9-month build schedule). Due to this, I'm trying to be more realistic about my subs and vendors and plan in A LOT of float time. What methods do people use to build this much extra time into your Gantt chart? Ex. Do you take a 10-day electrical job and just plugin 20 days? Do you build in extra tasks called "delays" everywhere? Thanks for your thoughts.
