The company in which I'm currently employed is moving to using Project
Server (2k7) as well as an implementation of PWA. In the meantime, I
need to generate some "makeshift" timesheets for my resources on my
various projects, so they can at least write down how many hours per
day they are putting towards specific tasks.
What we've been doing is basically came up with a custom "task usage"
view with a table that has slots for Monday-Friday in the middle, so
the end result is something like this:
| Monday | Tuesday |
Wednesday | Thursday | Friday |
Summary Task 1 |
Summary Task 2 |
Task 1 |
John Q Public | |
| | | |
I print this out, hand it to John Q, and at the end of the week John
goes through his various tasks and just jots down a number for that
particular task, eventually tallying up to approximately 40 (when all
of his tasks are combined)
Although this is temporary, it is still very inconvenient for the
resources for obvious reasons. One thing I'd like to do to make these
Task Usage sheets easier to read is compress the summary task and task
hierarchy down to 1 line. So instead of a different line for each
summary task, the above might look like this:
m | t | w | th | f
Summary Task 1, Summary task 2, Task 1 - John Q. Public
Even if this is formatted weird when people view this, hopefully that
gets the point across. Essentially a way to show an entire hierarchy/
summary on a single line for at ask, rather than 6 lines to get 4
summary tasks and 1 real task, and 1 resource name.
Any ideas? If anyone needs clarifications, by all means let me know.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Mike
