Resource Usage View Project 2003 Server Master Project Plan

[Jerryinnc]

I am trying to build a custom resource usage view where I have a master
project that has links to individual project plans that are maintained by the
project managers for those projects. This provides immediate updates to the
master project plan as published by the project managers. Building the
master plan with links to the individual project plans is easy to do.

I am trying to build a custom view to look at all the enterprise resources
across all the projects and then to be able to look at each resource and to
look at their hours and percent allocation across each project.

I also would like to have the ability to expand and collapse each project
listed under each resource to see the specific tasks that the individual is
assigned for that project. I want to see the hours and percent allocation
for each of the task if I expand the project and collapse the tasks to the
project level (and of course collapse the hours/percent allocation).

So I want to dynamically take my master plan and look at the resources, the
projects that the resources are assigned to, their hours and percentage
allocation across each project and drill down to the task level for each
project for each resource and then to drill up as required to higher levels.

Any thoughts on how this can be done in project 2003 professional?

Thanks for you help.

Hi,

All of this is perfectly possible without Project Server, even in Project
Standard, but not knowing Project Server very well I hesitate to gieve a
recipe in a Server environment.
