leveling problem strange behavior in Project Server

[Akram Hussein]

I have a problem also with leveling that no one was able to resolve until
now, and i hope you can give it a shot. I am using leveling in MS
Professional and it is working perfect, however as soon as i connect to
Project Server the task allocation and durations starts to get crazy.

Here is an example:
John is Assigned to: T1,T2,T3 each task is 16 Hours
John is Only assigned to this project and no other projects he is involved
in

so after leveling:
Sun 8
Mon 0
Tues 0
Wed 6
Thurs 8

week after
Sun 0
Mon 0
Tues 5
Wed 8
Thurs 12

as you can see it is doing irrational behavior it doesn't allocate the
resource on certain days and even in others it only assigns 5 or less hours.

I have made sure of the following also:
1. Each resource is 100% utilization
2. using Fixed Work and also Fixed Unit and Fixed duration all produce same
result.
3. Using Manual Leveling
4. and not checking on any of the check boxes or even checking them all
doesn't make a different
5. I am leveling by ID Only.
