PWA missing from our SharePoint Online tenant
We have 26 "Project for Office 365" licenses which I believe are now called Project Online Professional. We are supposed to have a PWA option within SharePoint online to setup and direct our Project...
I am generally confused by Project Online, MS Project, and the fact that the classic Project template is still being used and promoted. I am not seeing the 'roadmap' of these products and where the meet, match, compliment or otherwise parallel each other. Can some one please clarify? I want to promote use of Project Online and the PWA approach but I don't know current status, future plans or where to go to find these things out.
Hi Lisa, the two products work together - MS Project, or as it is called in the subscription model the Project Online Desktop Client - can be used against Project Online or on its own. For the future of Project see the recent announcement https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Project-Blog/A-letter-to-our-Microsoft-Project-community/ba-p/260891
Best regards,

It appears our previous IT provider never upgraded our licenses to the Project Online Professional and kept us on the old retired subscription. Now that we're with a new service provider, they changed our licenses (same price) and magically PWA is there!
