Hi Donna
I have also seen local resources inadvertently drawn into the resource pool. When you do an import project and use the wizard, you see a Map Resources dialog. Suppose you opt to keep the local resources and not map them to enterprise resources. When you finish with the Map Resources dialog, a Validate Resources screen is displayed. In the Import column, select No if you don't want the resources added to the Enterprise Pool. I had originally thought Import meant import resource with project, but it apparently means import to resource pool

Hi
I have had a few projects where Project Leads have entered some generic
resouces that were local to a project. Most recently ?? was listed for a few
tasks
When the project was published ?? got added to the enterprise pool
Has anyone seen this
Is there any setting that we can set to prevent this

Hi RaviSorry - we are on Project Server 2007I did look on the resource sheet
Hi Rav
Sorry - we are on Project Server 200
I did look on the resource sheet view - I double clicked as you suggested -
but I didn't see 'work group
We do have a security category for Project Leads / resource managers
(sometimes one and the same) -- this does allow them access into the resource
center - this is how they are to manage skill sets, setting working time
off,etc. I will check with IT to confirm if that also allow them to add new
resources. I am not sure
If you can provide me more guidance on the work group - I can see if I can
fix that setting
Appreciate the help

Project Leads are not allowed to enter New Resources.
Project Leads are not allowed to enter New Resources
So why would a publish of a new project - put local resources into the
enterprise pool
Are there any other configuration settings that we should check

Hi Donna
Two things I would check in this cas
1. Is the category of those project managers has the option calle
"New Resources" enabled
2. On the project schedule's resource sheet view, double click o
those resources and check if the workgroup is set to Default or M
Office Project Server. In this case I would change it to None
The first way would remove the capability of users creating
resource on resource pool, usually this would be enabled for admins
resource managers. But then if you do first case and don't do secon
case, this would throw spooler error when they publish the projec
plans. So try to do both these. Hope this helps
When specifying your queries please let us know what version o
Project Server you are using
Thanks
Ravi.

Did you ever resolve this, I seemingly have the same situation - where a
local resource is just being published along with the enterprise resources
(Project 2007 Server)?
