Task Center Progress Reporting

[SteveR]

We are running P2002 Server and are experiencing a confusing situation in PWA
Task Center. Some project team members are seeing different methods of
reporting progress on the same project. For example, on some tasks they can
enter '% Work Complete' and 'Work Remaining' while on other tasks they can
enter their time in the timesheet, i.e. '% Work Complete' is greyed out.

I have ensured all progress reporting is defined in PWA Admin and that
Project Managers must use the default method. I have republished the entire
project as well as just those tasks that are not allowing '% Work Complete'.
I seem to have dual progress reporting methods on the same project!

Has anyone experienced this situation and more importantly have you been
able to fix?

Thanks ...

Steve:

This situation would indicate that you changed the reporting method
midstream. When you change the tracking method on an existing project, only
tasks with assignments that have no progress reported will change. Thus, you
now have a mixed mode project.

Gary,

I was afraid that was what I was experiencing. Thanks for confirming my
thoughts.
