generic resource in PS 2007

[Loreva]

Hi all,
I have a problem with my generic resource in PS 2007. I create a generic
resource for example: analyst, and associated with a RBS code. I assigned
this generic resource to a task in project plan, and I publish my plan in
project server. All the tasks are allocated to me, in "my tasks" in PWA, I
want that task to be visible in resource manager tasks not in my tasks. Is
possible that?..there is other way to do a link between generic resource and
a real resource (a manager) that can manage this generic resource?....I
specify that manager is in RBS in upper position then generic resource that I
create, and I can't put a default assignment owner for generic resource
because this option is not available once I check the generic option for a
resource.
I use Project Professional 2007 and Project Server 2007.
I hope that someone have an answer.

Thanks!

You can change the assignment owner in your plan. Open a task usage
view, display this column and you can reassign ownership to any other
resource in your plan.

Suggest also you review threads posted by Dale Howard regard "team"
resources

I know that I can change the assignment owner in my plan, but what can I do
if I have 1000 task? Really nasty...
Thanks for your reply and tip regarding "team" resource...I think is better
to use team resources, I will try and hope that works.
Thanks a lot Mike!
