Baseline fallback formula fails in project center
Hi Community, I have multiple projects: some have only a single baseline, some have two (Baseline and Baseline 1), and others have none. Later, I created a new project‑level, date‑type custom field. In this new field, I used the following formula: IIf([Baseline 1 Start] = ProjDateValue("NA"), [Baseline 1 Start], [Baseline Start]) The issue is: When I add this custom field to the Project Center view, the column shows as empty. When I open the same project in Project Professional (desktop) and check the Project Information, the field displays #ERROR. Has anyone run into this before or know the correct approach for checking if Baseline 1 exists, and otherwise falling back to the main Baseline date? Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance! Allow me to tag: Dale_HowardMVP John-projectAlert - external linkn
Hi all, I'm using Windows 11 version 24H2, and whenever I launch Microsoft Project Pro 2019 (with an auto-macro enabled), I get the following warning, in english it sounds like: "This project contains links to one or more data sources that may be unsafe and have been disabled. Do you want to enable these data sources? Only do this if you trust the source of the file." I've already checked the Trust Center settings, enabled all macros, and reviewed everything under Options > Trust Center > Trust Center Settings, but nothing changes. It appears before running vba code, so displayalert = false (or similar) does not work. I also removed all VBA code and deleted every task to make sure no external links were hiding anywhere — but the warning still appears every time. There are no obvious external links (in tasks or in code), so I'm a bit stuck. Any idea where else I should look or how to get rid of this alert? Thanks in advanc
Assignments - inconsistency oData-feed and PWA-GUI?
Dear all, we tried to identify all user resources in our Project Online environment that don't have an assignment, hence not are assigned to any task in any project. Idea was to use the Project Online oData feed ".../_api/projectdata", query the table "Assignments" for resources included and join with table "Resources" on ResourceId to get all resources that are not referenced in the table "Assignments". The result was looking reasonable. However, cross-checking some of the resources that shouldn't have assignments with the data in PWA-GUI, via page Resources (select resource and display assignments) showed that for some of those, individual assignments are shown in the PWA-GUI. Could you help me to get my head around this? Did we look in the right place to find resources without assignments? In theory and my understanding, the table "Assignments" should be consistent with what is shown in the PWA-GUI. We already checked for publish status of the relevant project, the assignment observed had been published 3 days ago. Kind regards, Petter

PFTW: Make or Promote Subtask Grayed Out Sporadically
I have two separate projects that were created in PFTW. One of them I can still make and promote subtasks (not grayed out) and the other project I was able to make and promote subtasks but now both options are grayed out. I have tried to do this from Project Accelerator, PFTW, and Planner and cannot do it from any of the apps. This is the image from the Planner access for the WBS without the functionality accessible: Here's a screenshot from the WBS where I can access: I am not the only one with this issue and we seem to have the correct licensing as we can access the functionality in some projects but have lost it in others. Any assistance troubleshooting and resolving this is greatly appreci

New Planner experience in Teams showing all tasks except Project tasks
I have the new Planner experience in Teams. In My Tasks and My Day sections I can see Planner tasks, Loop tasks, Flagged email tasks but I don't see tasks from Premium Plans a.k.a. Projects. Everything that I have read says that I should be seeing my tasks from Premium Plans here as well. Anyone else experiencing the same issue?
