Using MS Project Online: linking to SharePoint/Planner
Hey MS Project community, First time poster. I have a question concerning integrating MS Project into the suite of PM tools used through Sharepoint. A little background on the issue(s) I'm facing: -I developed my Project tasklist (i.e. activities associated with my project) through the MS Project application (non through the web). -After I finished inputing basic project data, I uploaded the project to the Project online (through a PWA). I am able to edit the project both through the online version and desktop version (and all edits made in either version are reflected in the other. -One of the reasons my company invested in Project was due to the ability to connect it with Microsoft Planner and use our SharePoint teams/groups to help populate project "resources". However, here is where I'm having problems: 1)When I use the desktop version of Project and go to link a task/activity with a specific to-do list in MS Planner, I get a message that says "Cannot create a link". When I use the link to MS Planner option in the desktop version of Project, I am able to see the Planner Group and sub-plans: I just cannot create a link 2) When on the web-based version, I cannot assign resources, deliverables, or attribute risks to my projects. When I attempt to do so, I can a message that "This project is not linked to a site". All the "how to" videos I've sen online (Youtube, Lynda, MasterAcademy) all agree that the Planner needs to be published through the web-app. And then, in order to assign deliverables, there needs to be a "project site". I'm not clear on how to address these two problems (from my understanding, it seems link creating a project site and linking Planner with Project online can be done through the same fix and should solve my problem). Do you all think this is the right approach? Is there another approach? Thanks ahead of time for the suggestions and advise! AndrewProject Online Desktop Client no longer connecting to Project Server 2013 as of September 15, 2018
We continue to upgrade our Cloud offerings, including the Project Online Desktop, to provide our customers with the latest capabilities and up-to-date online experiences. Due to these ongoing updates, beginning September 15, 2018, we will be removing the ability for the Project Online Desktop Client to connect to those versions of Project Server outside of mainstream support, including Project Server 2013. Overall, this milestone is part of the end-of-life journey for Project 2013 Standard, Professional and Server. Prior to this, support for the connection between Project Professional 2013 and Project Online ended on August 31, 2017 while April 10, 2018 marked the end of mainstream support for Project Server 2013. An announcement (https://www.yammer.com/office365partners/topics/30431087) was sent to Office 365 tenant admins through the Office 365 Message Center in May 2018 for this upcoming change and posted on the following links: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/Project/hardware-and-software-requirements-for-project-server-2013 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/Project/software-requirements-for-project-server-2016 https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/Project/what-s-new-for-it-pros-in-project-server-2016#Req https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/Project/what-s-new-in-project-server-2013-upgrade#section4Project Online - Granting access to Project Site, Schedule, and Project Details
I am trying to nail down exactly what access and where to grant that access to give users who are part of a Project Team access to the Project Site and also the Schedule and Project Details (when clicking the Project Name link from the Project Center). We are set to use Project Permission Mode. Currently, I have been sharing the Project Site with users directly from the Project Site screen and to grant access to the Schedule, I was highlighting the Project from the project Center, clicking Project Permissions, and then select the following: View Project Summary in Project Center; View Project Site; View Project Schedule in Project Web App They can now see the schedule, but cannot see the Project Details. Also, their My Tasks screen is blank, even though they have tasks assigned on various projects. Please advise. Thank you.
