timesheet creation problem

[dartelin]

Hi,
I have this error when i try to create a timesheet in Project Server
2007:

"The timesheet creation failed, because of problems with the project I
server or with data validations, such as resources not being valid
work resources or users. Check your environment, and then try again."

It appear's only on one period. The funny thing is, that the timesheet
is created, but empty, even when the error tells that it cannot be
created.

Does anyone know how to fix this ?

Thank You,
Adam Luczak

I found out that i get this error message in Manage Queues Jobs:

"Error summary/areas:

Perhaps this could tell anything more. Would be nice if some Microsoft
specialist could read it this

Thank You.

I have the same issue… Without the Queuing error. I have found that I can
create surrogate timesheet for the user that is fully populated, however they
cannot view the timesheet. They continue to receive the error.

Has anyone found a solution?

have you resolved this issue yet? I am convinced it's related to a
particular task and/or assignment as everything was working fine in our case
until last week when one of our resources ran into a problem creating his
timesheet. Everyone else was fine, so i'm sure its not systemic in nature.

I had this same problem and managed to finally to get it working. I noticed
that I had marked several tasks completed, but the finish date was in the
future. So it looks like the timesheet was still calculating the work hours
planned, even though it is completed. Seems like a bug.

I fixed this by backing the completed tasks finish dates to a time prior to
the time sheet creation date. Once I did this and resubmitted for approval,
the time sheet creation started to work.
