PWA Task Updates not being reflected in Project Center

B

We're using Project 2007. Users have submitted thier Task status in PWA.
Also in PWA, PMs have accepted the updates and then gone to Applied Requests
and Errors, selected the relevent items, and Published the task updates.
However, those updates are not seen in PWA Project Center or in Project Pro
2007. What are we missing?

Thank you.

At this stage, your PM's should only publsih the Project in MS Project Pro.
The PWA publish option does not work, but hopefully will be fixed in SP1.

Try to republish the project in MS Project Pro, this should then make the
change visible in PWA.

Hope this helps

Thanks for steering us in the right direction. Unfortunately, we're still
having an issue seeing the task updates in Project Pro or PWA. We've
changed our PM procedure to accept the updates in Project Pro and then
publish them. After accepting the updates, the task(s) do not show the
correct %Work Completed as the user entered. Closing and re-opening Project
Pro doesn't change the values.

In an effort to figure out what is happening I took a look at the
ProjectServer_Draft and ProjectServer_Published databases. I don't have the
data dictionary, but the Draft db has the task update values we're expecting
in the MSP_TASKS table, TASK_PCT_WORK_COMP field. The same field in the
Published db are all 0 even though the project has been republished several
times.

I'm beginning to question my sanity....

Yes, Project Pro came back with "Publish job complete successfully", there
were no errors in the queue for Publish jobs, and the only failed job was
for an email notificaiton.

Hello! Did you find a solution to this issue?
I have the same problem and I don't want to let the PM publish the project from Prj Professional.
I also installed SP1, but the the changes are still not there.

I'm having the hardest time getting My Task updates to reflect in Project Center. I would like to be able to edit directly in Project Center, but I can't seem to figure out how to allow all my resources to make changes directly to the complete task list. It is making me look very bad to my boss. I've spent so much time getting this thing working and it seems to do everything except fry shrimp, but I can't get it to do the most basic. That is, allow 5 resources to update their tasks, automatically approve and get reflected on the Project Center and subsequent Project Details view. What is the deal? If you can tell me, I will dance at your wedding.
