Hi Everybody,
I'm new to MS Project Server 2003. I've a task for which the resurce is
assigned and actual hours have been entered for the task. The same task is
published and we incurred the cost from accounts based on the actual work.
For eg:
Task Name: Assign Resource
Resouce: XXX
Start date: 03/13/2006
End Date: 04/14/2006
Task type: Fixed work
Actual hours entered for this task 132 Hrs and Actual Protected hours is 132
Hrs.
We had completed this task and incurred the cost from accounts for this hours.
But during this month, Project manager updates the same task, Changed the
start date to 06/30/2006. It allows to change the date with a warning " Your
action may result in this project becoming out of sync with the actual hors
entered in the timesheet".
Here the Actual hours are moved from 03/13/2006 to the new date. When I
sync with Protected actuals and publish the project. The Work Hours and
Actual hours moved to new date(future dates). But even though I did the Sync
with Protected actuals, the Protected actual Hours for this task remains in
the same old date.
How is it the actual hours is Sync here???? By financial Perspective this
is wrong...(i.e) we have incurred the cost from finance already for the
future task?? Is there any way to handle this???
Please advise...
Thanks in advance,
Raj
