Leveling Lost on Import to Project Server

I have very simple sample (local) project plan with three tasks and one l
(local) resource. Each task takes 2 days, and the resource is assigned to
all three tasks. I've set up *no* predecessors between the tasks - and have
used the "ID Only" method to level the plan sucessfully resulting in the
three tasks taking a total of 6 days to complete.

When I import the plan to PS and map an enterprise resource to the tasks,
leveling is lost - all tasks revert to starting the same day, and there's
nothing I've yet found (aside from setting up predecessors - not the
solution I want) that will re-level the plan.

Any idea what's causing this and how to correct it?

Thanks -

Hello Pete,
Just an idea : what is the "Maxi.Unit" of the enterprise resource you assign
to the 3 tasks ?

Thanks Gérard -

"Max Units" on my resource is 100% ;-)

Anyone else have any ideas?

I haven't been able to explain this, though I was only able to produce these
results on our test server - our production server works as it should. So
for now, I'm not worrying about it :)

I am experiencing this same behavior on our server. I am unable to level resources for a project residing on Proj. Server. Upon "leveling", all projects revert to starting on the Project Start Date. When I use an offline copy, it levels fine

Solving this issue is becoming critical. Please help
