Spooler error message

Hi,

When I re-publish my project, I get the error message "The manager cannot
create the resource account (0x8C040017)". However, everything seems to have
work fine. Is there a real problem?

Thanks,

Ben

Most likely, you have a local resource assigned to do work in your project.
It could be that you intentionally created a local resource, or maybe you
mistyped the name of an Enterprise resource.

If you intend to have a local resource, then you need to go to the Resource
Sheet, double-click on that resource to open the Resource Information dialog
box, and in the Workgroup dropdown box select None.

It's a good practice to avoid using local resources if you can.

Is there a way to prevent plan owners froom entering a local resource. We
want them to be restricted to using enterprise resources.

No, there is no way to prevent this. Therefore, this is a training and
performance issue with your project managers. Hope this helps.

if all your Enterprize resources have a resource group
you can make a SQL Query to get the local resource
it should be like this
SELECT MSP_VIEW_PROJ_TASKS_STD.ProjectUniqueID,
MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_ENT.ProjectEnterpriseName
FROM MSP_VIEW_PROJ_TASKS_STD INNER JOIN
MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_ENT ON
MSP_VIEW_PROJ_TASKS_STD.WPROJ_ID = MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_ENT.WPROJ_ID
INNER JOIN
MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_STD ON
MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_ENT.WPROJ_ID =
MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_STD.WPROJ_ID
WHERE (MSP_VIEW_PROJ_TASKS_STD.TaskResourceGroup LIKE '') AND
(MSP_VIEW_PROJ_TASKS_STD.TaskResourceNames NOT LIKE '') AND
(MSP_VIEW_PROJ_TASKS_STD.TaskResourcePhonetics LIKE '')
GROUP BY MSP_VIEW_PROJ_TASKS_STD.ProjectUniqueID,
MSP_VIEW_PROJ_PROJECTS_ENT.ProjectEnterpriseName
