Slow "Build Team from Enterprise"

[Karen]

Hi there,

When I have a plan open and I click on "Build Team from Enterprise" it takes
a very long time to open the Enterprise box - I only have approx 800
resources, is there an obvious reason for such a long delay?

Many thanks

If you are using the 2003 version, you can speed this up. Have your login
setting to "mannually control connection state". After launching the
software, you should see a check box to "Load Summary Resource Assignments".
If you un-check this, then the Build Team from Enterprise function goes much
faster since it doesn't have to bring in allocations for resources across the
enterprise. The only thing you loose by un-checking this box is the ability
to see enterprise-wide allocations in the "Resource Usage View". It is a good
idea to always un-check this box unless you need to use this view. Hope this
helps.
