Tasks Changing Levels After Save

B

B ReynoldsFFIC

Using MS Project Server 2007 with SP1 and Infrastructure update. A number of
users when they have updated their projects that their outlines codes were
changed.

Here is what I was doing when the corruption occurred. When this has
happened in past projects for me, it may have happened earlier but isn't
shown in the file until a full recalculation is made by saving and reopening
the file.

1. I was working on some work contouring of tasks to spread the hours
evenly over 3 weeks (with 14 days duration due to the holiday)

2. I published the plan in order to save the file onto my local drive due
to a request from the Team Lead.

3. I saved the file down in 2003 and 2007. Exited the remote desktop once
the file was checked back in, per my queue report on PWA.

4. Saved the files onto my own drive, and zipped up the 2003 version to
send to the Team Lead.

5. Sent project to team lead.

6. Reopened Remote Desktop and Opened the project plan.

7. Received an error message stating that a resource had claimed time
outside of the original dates. Went to that task, near the end of the plan
and noticed that the outline level had been distorted on many tasks near the
bottom. Also noticed that tasks had moved from their original place in the
plan and that dates had moved because predecessors were missing (mainly due
to outline level changing).
