Resolution for Project Server 2002
You can add additional columns to your team members' timesheets, however, Project Server 2002 does not allow you to remove or reorder any of the default fields in the timesheet. To add fields for a specific project, complete the following steps:
1. Open Microsoft Project 2002 and log into Project Server
2. Open the first project in which you will publish additional columns (fields)
3. Click Tools - Customize - Published Fields
4. In the dialog, select the additional columns from the Available Fields list and copy them to the list on the right
5. Click OK
6. Click Collaborate - Publish - Republish Assignments and then click OK
7. Repeat this process for each project in which you want to publish additional fields
Warning: DO NOT skip step #6 above, as this step will actually "push" the additional columns onto the far right end of the task sheet portion of each team member's timesheet.
Tip: After you publish the additional fields to each user's timesheet in Project Web Access, the new fields will appear at the far right end of the columns in the task list on the left side of the timesheet. Users can move the fields anywhere in the table by dragging and dropping the column headers for each additional field.
Resolution for Project Server 2003
To additional columns to your team members' timesheets, the project managers and the Project Server administrator must work together. The Project Server administrator must first complete the following steps:
1. Log into Project Web Access with administrator permissions
2. Click Admin - Manage views
3. Select the Timesheet view and click the Modify View button
4. Add the new columns to the list on the right and position them in the correct order
5. Click the Save Changes button
Tip: To remove columns from each user's timesheet, the Project Server administrator must perform the same set of steps above, but must remove fields from the list on the right in step #4.
Each project manager must then complete the following steps:
1. Open Microsoft Project 2003 and log into Project Server
2. Open the first project in which you will publish additional columns (fields)
3. Click Tools - Customize - Published Fields
4. In the dialog, select the additional columns from the Available Fields list and copy them to the list on the right
5. Click OK
6. Click Collaborate - Publish - Republish Assignments and then click OK
7. Repeat this process for each project in which you want to publish additional fields
Warning: You must perform step #6 above, as this step will actually "push" the additional columns onto the far right end of the task sheet portion of each team member's timesheet.
