MPS 2007 - Customizing Issue & Risk Log in WSS

[MSPLearner]

I have a customized Issue Log where a standard column "Priority" was changed
to "Severity". I have noticed that the WSS tables in the Reporting DB (from
where SRS Reports are run) still show "Priority". Is there a recommended/safe
way make a change so that this change is global.

Is there any documentation around customizing changing WSS Issue & Risk Logs
that also reflected back to the Reporting DB?

Any help appreciated.

There's no supported way to do this. The easiest way is to rename the
column in your SRS Reports and/or queries.

Thanks Stephen, this is helpful.

If I add a new column to say for example Issue Log, will this show up in the
Reporting DB?

BTW - I am a big fan of your Imple/Admin Orange Book (also known as Big
Orange Book or B.O.B. for short).

Unfortunately, this is not something that Project Server does out of the
box. However, you can do this through some customization.



I'm glad you've found our Admin guide helpful - I'll be sure to pass
your compliments along to Gary and Dale!
