Project Owner and OLAP Cube

[Robert]

Hi,

There is a field named Owner in the Summary view of the Project Center.
How can we add this Owner field as a Dimension in the OLAP Cube ? I only
found the Assignment Owner.
Thanks for your help

Have you tried creating a custom field with the formula [owner], then adding
it to cube you want to use ?

I don't mean to rain on your parade, but you can't use a custom field with a
formula for this purpose. You cannot use fields in the OLAP cube unless you
extend the cube, right?

Nobody said anything about 2007 in the original posts. I was assuming 2003.
If I'm wrong in that assumption, I apologize.

Dale,
Sorry for beeing imprecise. In fact, I do use the 2007 version.

NZ,

I tried creating a custom field with the following formulas:
[owner] : refused by PWA 2007
[Assignment Owner] : accepted but generate an ERROR value

Any idea ?

Just a NOTE on 'Owner' field, by the way. In 2003, Owner and Manager
of a project are 2 different fields. Owner first created the project,
and is editable in PWA; Manager is the one who last Published, and who
the Updates go to. Are you sure you want to display 'Owner'? Or is it
'Manager'? Dale Howard and company have an excellent write-up about
this at http://www.projectexperts.com. I don't know 2007, so can't
speak to that. Dale?
