We are about to enable Proposals and Activities in our Production
Environment, but I'm observing a problem in My Tasks.
The question is why our resources are unable to view their assignments
generated under a Proposal Resource Plan.
In our Dev Environment, I have a Proposal with two resources reserved under
a Resource Plan (not via the Build Team button) using an FTE calculation.
After the Proposal and Resource Plan were both published, both resources
showed their time committed for this Proposal in the Resource Center.
However, neither resource sees anything under My Tasks under their Home Page
(we do not use timesheet reporting - only Task reporting).
Tracking Method is set to "Hours of work done per period" and PMs are forced
to use this reporting method. Hours are Committed and not Proposed. Not
sure what other configuration settings may be relevant.
The Project Experts Blue Book (specifically, the MS Project Experts Blue
Book "Managing Enterprise Projects" Second Edition, page 94, first
paragraph).
seems to state that Proposal activities should show up under the resources'
My Tasks link, even if their time is only reserved by Resource Plan as
opposed to linked to a task under the Build Team functionality. Is this
correct? If so, any ideas on why this work is not visible under My Tasks
would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks!
