Actual Work Protected not Matching Actual Work

K

Kim Yauchzee

We have a project file where Actual Work Protected is ~1,000 hours greater
than Actual Work. We've reviewed invididual tasks with this discrepancy, and
Actual Work contains the correct hours and Actual Work Protected displays a
bloated version of those hours on various tasks.
For example, one task shows 164 hours in actual work protected and actual
work only shows 1 hour. If you review these two fields in the Task Usage
view, you can only see 1 hr posted. Reviewing the task owner's timesheet
also shows the task owner has only posted 1 hour.
We have seen this in a few other instances in other project files over time.
These tasks are not summary tasks.
What causes this?
Is there anyway to reconcile the fields?
Thanks in advance.

We are running MS Project 2003 Enterprise server & PWA
Clients are running Project Professional 2003 SP3 (11.3.2007.1529.15)
The Project Server is 2003 SP2 (11.0.8173.0)
