Preventing Time Reporting

S

Steve

Does anybody know how to prevent time from being reported against a
particular task without unassigning the person or changing their
booking type on the project to "Proposed"? Is there even a way that
this can be accomplished?

The business purpose here is to prevent someone from charging time
against a complete task. Is this possible?

Steve --

This is primarily a methodology issue. If team members should not report
progress against a completed task, then you must establish a process or
methodology to deal with a situation where a task is completed and then
needs to be reopened. Once you have established this process, all project
managers and team members need to be taught how to use it and then held
accountable for their actions.

If you absolutely want to make sure that team members cannot enter time
against completed tasks, your Project Server administrator can delete
completed tasks from each user's PWA timesheet by doing the following:

1. Log into PWA with administrator permissions
2. Click Admin - Clean Up Project Server Database
3. Click the Tasks option
4. Click the Delete pick list and select the "Only completed task
assignments" option from the list
5. Click the Ever Sent pick list and select the date options desired, if
any
6. At the bottom of the page, select the "Delete the specified task,
resource task change, or status report items for all users" option
7. Click the Delete button

Hope this helps.
