Hi All,
I've moved this post here in hopes that I can get help from somebody with
some knowledge of how Project Server generates and sends out emails. Here
is my previous post in another group which explains my problem:
=====================================
When requesting progress information using Project Professional 2003, there
are a few things that I would like to customize. I know how to customize
text at the top and bottom of the notification email, it is the main body of
the email I'm concerned with.
1) Task Fields
The task list shows the fields: Start, Finish, Work, Rem Work. Since we do
not track hourly work (we just use estimated durations and % complete for
tracking) I am not interested in Work or Rem. Work. The fields I would like
to display are Start, Finish, % complete.
2) Timesheet Link
The link generated in the email defaults to
http://<<myserver>>/Tasks/Taskpage.asp?AllTasks=1&FilterBy=9&GanttView=0
I would like to change that to remove the filter (FilterBy=0?) and to
default to the GanttView rather than Timesheet (GanttView=1?), again because
we are not tracking by the hour.
============================================
I was referred by MVP Dale to this Microsoft help page:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d.../en-us/pdr/PDR_Project_Server_E-mail_3348.asp
.... which, unfortunately, does not have all the information I need.
So far, I have simply replaced the Query fields in
MSP_WEB_NOTIFICATION_EVENTS and MSP_WEB_REMINDER_TYPES for the Work and Work
Remaining (I forget the actual field names) to WASSN_PCT_COMP (the field
that stores percent complete for each task). This has had the effect of
causing no notifications to be sent out. I need to find whatever it is that
generates the email and uses these notification tables so that I can correct
it.
Please help.. this doesn't seem like it should be too uncommon of an issue.
I would think that the ability to customize email notifications would be
standard faire.
Thanks,
Ryan
