Project 2007 PWA Task and Timesheet Management

J

Jahveen Davis

Hello,

We are currently trialling the 2007 PWA Task and Timesheet system, and it
appears to be quite cumbersome to use. Ideally, we want to only use one of
the interfaces to record time and update projects.

From what we can deciper, we should perform the following steps:

1. Update the amount of time spent on project tasks in the timesheet area
and save the timesheet.
2. At the end of the day, go to the task area (using the Actual work done
and work remaining tracking method), import the the timesheet.
3. Edit the "Remaining Work" field to reflect how much time the user
believes is left, then save and submit task updates.

Although this is workable, is there a cleaner way - by perhaps incorporating
allof the above steps in only one area?

Regards,

Jahveen

If you do not need to track and approve all types of time for both project
and non-project work, then I would recommend you skip the Timesheet
interface entirely. Instead, teach your team members how to use the My
Tasks page using your organization's selected method of tracking progress,
and then leave it at that. Hope this helps.

Hi
We use My tasks for project work and My Timesheet for not priect
work. We have adjusted the view in My Tasks to show every day in a
grid and we are able to enter amount of hours worked on projects in
this grid.
You can easily edit the webpart and check the "show hourd pr day"
checkbok. You must however havde the field "Progress" avaibale in you
view.

Can you detail how you did the below (as you mentioned)? If i understand you
correctly, you modified the web part to make it look similar to the 2003
reporting method, where you had one grid that displayed all tasks, plus the
days.
