Cleaning up completed tasks through PWA

J

Jimmy

I am looking for a way to clean up completed tasks from the Project
Server database. If I log onto the PWA as administrator and go to the
Admin section and select 'Clean Up Project Server Database' and then
select the tasks option I receive a message confirming that the
selected tasks have been deleted. However, when I view the tasks in the
PWA they have not been deleted. Also, the amount of rows in msp_tasks
table does not change. I have also ran SQL Profiler while running the
command and the only SQL that is run against the database when I try to
delete rows through the PWA is the "Set No_Browsetable on". This is
consistent regardless of which options I choose for which tasks to
delete (e.g. all tasks, only complete tasks, tasks for specific
resource). Has anyone else had this problem or is there something I am
not understanding about how the function is supposed to work? Any help
with this would be appreciatted.

Cleaning up completed tasks removes the tasks from each user's timesheet in
PWA. Are you saying that team members continue to see completed tasks on
their timesheets? Let us know.

You are correct it does remove them from the PWA of the user. I didn't
understand that that was the purpose of it. I can't get the tasks to
show up in the PWA for the user ulness the user assigns it to
him/herself.
