Multiple Assignments in 2003 PWA

[David Luper]

Hi!

We have the issue of multiple assignments of the same task appearing in PWA
(Tasks and Adjust Actuals) but only appearing once in the plan in Project and
in PWA inthe Projects tab.

Anyone know why we would have all of these "ghost" tasks appearing in those
pages in PWA but not in the project file or in the Projects view in PWA?

Thanks!
David

Has anyone in your organization saved and published a master project? A
master project is a project consisting of other projects. By default,
Project Server 2003 does not allow anyone to save or publish master
projects, however, your Project Server administrator could have changed
those default permissions. Let us know.

Hi Dale -

Someone did do that by accident a few months ago, but it was deleted from
the database when noticed. And the master project did not include this
project.

Thanks!
David

It should show where the tasks are coming from. One place you might want to
check, from my personal experience, is to see if one of the PMs has insterted
a project into their project plan. Has the same effect as creating a master
project.

Food for thought.
