Follow-up on migrated actual hours not coming over correct

[Aaron Miller]

Folks, we are on PS2007 SP2 with April CU. We are also using MS Project Pro 2007 with same SP levels.

We have just started migrating our projects from 2003 to 2007 and have discovered some of our tasks are showing "bizarre" actual hours splits.

I haven't seen this resolved anywhere else.

What was the cause or resolution here?

thanks,

Hi Rod ! I have recently discovered the same problem ! It is for MSEPM2007

Now I am trying to understand why timescaled actuals splited unpredictedly
between days. Timesheet does not matter, you may see such spliting in
Project 2007 Pro in timescaled assignment views (Task Usage for eaxmple

I was totally sure that actuals could not be changed after approving ones by
PM. But ...
I think it may depends on administrative time entered by user.
If I find something new I post .

Hours split in Project Pro 2007 when updating Project from PWA 200
We have a situation where the actual hours for several resources have
reverted to fractional hours in Project Professional and we are not sure why.
As just one example, a resource imports a timesheet containing whole (not
fractional) hours to update his tasks, and then submits the tasks update to
the project manager.

The project manager approves the task updates and then sees that the updated
hours are not sucked into the project as they were entered into the time
sheet

M T W T
5h 9h 6h 8h 5

in PWA becomes..

M T W T
2.5h 2.5h 9h 6h 8

in Project Professional - the 5 hours on Monday was split in two between
Monday and Tuesday and then the rest of the hours were all offset a day going
forward

Can anyone offer an explanation? Thank you.

are the users updating the field "Work Remaining" on the task updates ?
are the users updating the field "Work Remaining" on the task updates

e.g Task1 =
M T W T

but users updates 2.5 hrs work on M, so therefore the remaining works gets
pushed down the timelines which reflects

MSP will automatically do this for the task /resource ..when updates are
pushed thru at the PWA level..

Aaron:

I would strongly recommend that you upgrade your system to the December CU,
which contains all of the latest fixes for actual work issues. Eliminate
this source of potential problems and then post if you have continue to see
issues so that we can help you understand or work around them.
