Tracking Primary Skill to Assignment Level w/ Task Usage

[Andrew Lavinsky]

The goal is to track the primary skill that each resource is using *by assignment*
in the Task Usage Screen

I have:

1) Set up multivalue skill sets as an Enterprise Resource Outline Code in EG
2) Assigned multivalue skill sets to resources
3) Created Task 1
4) Assigned 2 X resources to Task 1
5) Set up split view, w/ Gantt Chart at the top and the Task Usage Screen
at the bottom

So now here is the question: how do I set up a field in the Task Usage Screen
which allows me to assign a single value from the multivalue code to the
assignment? I can do it on the task level using a linked lookup field and
the task outline code, but this does not allow me to:

Assign two X resources to the task, w/ 1 resource assigned because of their
skill at "instruction," and the other resource assigned because of their
skill in "curriculum development."

I know this is possible because I am looking at a screen shot of it in the
MSPS 2003 Unleashed book (Fig 17.32, p420).

Andrew --

You can do what you wish in the Resource Usage view, but not in the Task
Usage view. Hope this helps.
