I published a Master Plan!

[Bonny]

I published a master plan and now I have duplicates in my PWA view. Is there
anyway to undo this or do I simply need to go into each view and "hide" the
tasks?

Thanks,
Bonny

Bonny --

You are making a huge mistake with publishing a master project. The result
is duplicate task assignments on the timesheet of every team member assigned
to tasks in the subprojects of the master project. Your Project Server
administrator should immediately disable the permission that allows the
publishing of master projects and should also delete the master project from
the database. It is allowable to save a master project in the Project
Server database, but it is a definite "no no" to publish a master project.
Hope this helps.

I appreciate that I should not have done this as well as your suggestions to
dissable future publishing (thanks!) but my question was what is the best way
to clean up those affected plans?

I appreciate your help, Dale.

The best way to clean up the plans is to have the Project Server
administrator delete the master project. That will delete all of the
duplicate assignments from each user's timesheet in PWA. Hope this helps.
