Hi All,
We would like to save baseline based on a change in the Infopath form.
I didn't found BaselineSave function in the project server API, only at the
Project Professional VBA reference.
Can I do this through a standard channel, or I should implement the baseline
save funtion in my code?
Thanks and cheers,
Gabriel
Hi Gabriel,
PDS not offers saving baseline and also doesn't support event model
(On save, before save, before close etc.) You have to use VBA to work
on this situations. If PDS would have the save baseline capability,
you would have done from InfoPath.
Having this situation, I can suggest the following workaround
situation (If you want to baseline entire project based on change in
InfoPath form)
Solution 1:
1) Define enterprise project outline column with values Yes and No in
MS Project Server to show it on project level on each project plan
2) Whenever required change happens on info path form, call PDS and
update the project outline column to Yes
3) On Project Server, write enterprise global macro on save event with
the below functionality:
Check the enterprise project outline column on every save
If Yes, do the save baseline for that project and set enterprise
project outline column back to No
This will be the automation process for you.
Solution 2:
Whenever required change happen at InfoPath send email to PM to asking
to save baseline when they are working in plan
(It's as semi automation, but still required process and discipline
from PM to follow the process)
Please let me know, if you have any questions.
Thanks
