How to Allow Limited Field Editing in AdaptiveWork Tasks?

Hi Planview Community,I hope someone can help us with the following issue in AdaptiveWork:We have a project with some activities where the resource assigned by the project manager occasionally requires support from another resource. We need the main resource (assigned by the project manager) to be able to modify only two fields within the activity: “% Percent Complete” and “Resources” (adding and removing resources). Is there any way to make this strictly possible for these two fields without granting permissions for the entire project or the projects module to the main resource?Thanks for your support.Best regards.Oscar SuarezPM

Is there a way to use dataloader to provide viewer permissions on custom object?

Hi,We are using Custom Object inside our projects. We can add new person as a reviewer to the projects using dataloader which gives them permission to view the project data. But is there any way to provide permissions to custom object using dataloader directly? We have created a custom action for now but there is a limitation that it will take 50 rows at a time and we have to click multiple times to provide permissions.If  this is possible then please share a sample for dataloader file. I checked the fields but not sure how to provide viewer role.

JB ICE Duplicate tasks in the schedule

Hello, Issue Adaptive WorkPlease review the following project and the attached image, as we were unable to identify what caused the activities to appear duplicated in this schedule. It can be verified in the images that the activities are the same as they have the same ID.We tried to recreate the situation using the Copy/Paste option and we tried the export and import option in Excel and in neither situation were the activities duplicated, so we do not understand what caused this problem.  Regards Jhon

Suggestions for a project not adding hrs accurately?

I have a single project that is not counting all of the hours logged in it (all approved). 10h were worked but the project sums are only recognizing 9h. I submitted a support ticket which was escalated to Tier 3, who hasn’t responded in more than a month.  Has anyone else experienced this with a project?  Was there any solution provided?

Custom fields on time-phase Labor Resources

I have introduced a custom currency field on Time-Phase Labour Resources with a workflow to update it when needed. The updated value does appear against the individual work-item in the Financial Planning View (following refresh of the financial data), and sometimes it appears correctly in the summary view, however sometimes it does not get picked up into the rolled-up number.My questions are : Can anyone let me know what triggers custom fields on Labor Resources Time Phase to be updated into the summary view? How are people handling custom fields on Time Phase Labor Resources if they cannot be trusted to always roll up in terms of presenting the information to users?  Thanks

How to move finances in time according to how the dates of the schedule move

I am contacting you to request clarification on the behavior of the movement of the finances recorded and associated with the activities of the project schedule as the start and/or due dates of the activities, milestones and projects are modified. Currently, the financial items that move with the project are those associated with the resources selected in the schedule as responsible for a certain task and that have a cost or billing rate. On the other hand, the NLR are not updated with the dates of the schedule, so it must be done manually. With this situation in mind, we are seeking to configure the system so that the finances related to the NLR also move according to the dates that can be modified in the activities, milestones and projects.

Change Reviewer Role to Stakeholder

Is it possible to rename the Reviewer role to Stakeholder? It would clear up some confusion for our Planview users if we could clearly relabel the field as stakeholders.

Send email to resources of tasks

When a milestone is created resources are automatically added to the milestone tasks but I am facing issue to send email to the resources. I used "send email" option but if a task has 3 resources then everyone is receiving 3 emails rather than 1 email per user.Resources to the tasks are added dynamically using workflow rule on task by assigning the user group.in send email recipients list I can't directly choose resources field however I have to choose the user group which I had assigned dynamically < link object > resource fields is showing blank. Can someone share example of config to send email to task resources and everyone should get only 1 email

Manual set flag on months in resource planning view

Hi,Hope someone can help me with this.In the resource planning view for a task, without entering any specific resource data, I get a blue triangle in the top of certain months indicating manually set data. I have been assuming that is because I have set public holidays as non-working days in my organisation’s calendar.It would be great if anyone knows a way of setting non-working days without them showing as user-set data in the resource planning view.A further twist to this is that I notice that there are some months with manually set NWDs which do not show a blue triangle. Does anyone know why there is an inconsistency?ThanksJulian

Can you delete a note assigned to a person in # of notes?

I mistakenly advised by PMs to use the # of notes column to keep a record of changes made against a person/resource, rather than against a task. I looked to see if I could easily delete the notes assigned to people but couldn't find a way. Does anyone know if there is a way of deleting a note in # of notes?
