The following tasks need progress updates. (PWA 2003)

E

EichTalk

When my resources receive these web access notification messages their link
takes them to an area of project server (resource area) to which they have no
access/permissions. I've read some things that vaguely reference illegal
cahracters so I took all of those out. I've also read how a query I've used
for clearing deleted
tasks from resources views/timesheets may leave orphans in the db causing
these "progress update" messages, but I'm skeptical.

1. What are Progress Update requests
2. How are they generated?
3. How can I fix the link that my resources receive in this notification
email?

Thanks

I don't see a link in the message you posted. The reminder is based on an
assignment record in the system for these tasks. Are you saying that the
tasks are not valid or no longer in the project?
