Renaming a Project in Project Web Access

Nick Mav

How can I rename a project in Project Web Access after it is save to the
Project Server? I can't figure out a way other than deleting the plan and
starting over again.

Assuming you are using Project Server 2003, you can use the Rename Project
Tool, available for download at:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-f0ff-4846-9ec1-4add5e493fa6&DisplayLang=en

Before you use this tool, make sure that your PM's have updated all projects
with task updates waiting on the Updates page in PWA.

If you are using Project Server 2002, you will need to do the following:

1. Save the project as an .mpp file
2. Ask your Project Server administrator to delete the project from the
Project Server DB
3. Import the project into Project Server with the new name using Tools -
Enterprise Options - Import Project to Enterprise

Hope this helps.
