Change Issue & Risks Forms in PWA

Hi,

Our organisation maintains a different strategy for risk management. The
Impact and Probability Assessment for each risk have 5 different scores in
comparison to PWA, which allows only 3 (H,M,L).
Is there any way to change this in PWA?
Or, do you know and use a good product that can communicate with Project
Server and can manage issues and risks.

Much Appreciated.

Ed,

You can modify almost all columns for Risks, Issues etc. Go to your WSS
site, go to the risks, click 'Modify settings and columns' and then select
the columns you want to modify from 'Columns'.

Hope this helps...

Thanks for the the reply Marc, but I can't modify columns such as probability
and the probabaility description. Also I can't find in the PWA definition
where the choices for the probability description are set, are they coming
from the Project Server Database?

Thanks again

I got around this problem by changing the description of the fields to
"Not Used", moving them to the end of the list of fields, marking them
to not display, creating new fields that did what I wanted, and then
modifying the standard Views to use my new fields. By the way, I
created a custom template with all of this so that all projects
automatically use the custom template. Kind of a hassle and the "not
used" fields show up at the bottom of the screen when you are adding or
modifying a risk, but other than that it works great. Hope this helps.
