PDS AssignmentsGet Method

[Sam]

Hello all,

Currently, I am working with project server 2003, PDS API, and Sharepoint
2003 on windows server 2003 to create a time input application. I want to
recreate the Assign myself to an existing task that is in the web access.

Here is my problem.
I have a project in project server 2003. I want to assign a resource to the
project, assign the resource to a task and update time. To do this I am
doing the following porcess via the PDS

Check out the project
Execute Project Resource Create
Check in the project
Check Out the project
Execute Project Assignments Create
Check in the project
Execute Get assignment
Execute Save assignment

However, when i execute Get assignment i get nothing back. I then access
the project via the web access and see that I did create the resource,
assinged the resource however it does not show up in the time sheet view.

Additionally, if i open the project with the Microsoft Office Project
client, publish the project, close the client, the time sheet view gets
populated.

After researching this i found that I need to populate MSP_Web_Assignments
table before executing the Get assignments.

Is there a step i am missing or some way i can populate the
MSP_Web_Assignments so that the task will show up in the Timesheet view in
project web access?

Thanks,

Sam

You need to Publish the project or tasks that you made the assignment(s) on.
