Project view for Sub WBS Elements
Hello Community, I am trying to customize the Project item view to be able to view sub WBS elements as separate projects so that Project Managers at different levels can view and interact with the schedule of their own project without having to view or modify the other WBS Elements. While also enabling the Program manager to have a complete view including interdependencies of activities between multiple projects. I expected Program item to do this, but it doesn't really do anything as far as I know. Anyway, I was able to achieve what I set out to do(sort of) in a couple of different ways but I am faced with multiple issues. Case 1: I tried replacing the property wbs_id of a project with a Sub WBS Element of a different project, the view is generated as expected. Case 2: I create project items for each Sub WBS Element I expect to have and then add them to the Sub WBS relationship of the a program level WBS Element. Again, the view is generated as expected. In both cases I'm not really respecting the property "is_top" of the WBS Element, I haven't found it really being used anywhere. But in both cases, whenever I try to edit any of the project items I get the error : "WBS Activity2 already exists" or "Sub WBS already exists." Error details: <af:legacy_detail>WBS Activity2 already exists.</af:legacy_detail> <af:legacy_faultstring>Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint.</af:legacy_faultstring> I tried to fix this by changing the "action" attribute from 'add' to 'create' of the relationship item xml elements inside the AML generated inside the method Project_saveProjectTree(This server method updates all the items whenever a change is made in the project view.) This seems to have fixed the issue in some scenarios, and it lets me edit the lower tier project items as intended. However in some other cases, such as when I edit a program level project item I get the error: "Subquery returned more than 1 value. This is not permitted when the subquery follows =, !=, <, <= , >, >= or when the subquery is used as an expression. The statement has been terminated. Warning: Null value is eliminated by an aggregate or other SET operation. Warning: Null value is eliminated by an aggregate or other SET operation. ..." The last sentence repeats about 17 times. The error details don't provide any additional information. The perplexing part about the issue is that I DO NOT get this error when I extract the AML query that is generated inside the method Project_saveProjectTree, and then submit it through Nash or Innovator Admin. It only fails inside the method. So, I'm not quite sure why this is happening or if my approach is wrong from the beginning. Any inputs on the issues or a better way to achieve what I want to do with respect to the project item are appreciated. Thanks in advance, -Prasanth
Different Project Grid Layout based on identity?
I know how to customize the project grid layout by editing the preference for the World identity. However, I would like to have different layouts based on different identities. Is this possible? The reason is that we are different companies working in the same database, and we use the project module differently.
What should we fill in the information to carry out Project scheduling
Hi experts! I've just started to use "Project" function for the Process management. In the searching menu, we can see the ph1 ph2...many phases. But if we create a project, we cannot find any reference to set a mile stone, leaders(not Alias) , targets...etc. Do you have good information or user guide URL in this case?

Hi, I want to relate Express ECO with Project Item type. I will define the Review assignment for Project Manager. Then the workflow task is created for Jack (Project Manager of A Project), or for Mary (Project Manager of B Project). How can I achieve this? thanks Duygu
Updating stale Dynamic Workflow Variables
Is it possible to update the variable list when the user opens the vote dialog from the inBasket, to ensure the latest possible variable list is available? The Scenario: On the ItemType 'Project', I have a workflow which looks at the Activity2 Items and builds a list of variables relating to their current states. This allows users to process the InBasket task and promote the Activity2 Items based on the variable selection, without going through the project screens (through an approval process). The workflow activity for the Project loads the variables with the current values onActivate of the current workflow step. The concern is that if someone updates one of the Activity2 Items after the InBasket Item has been created, the variable does not reflect the new state of the Project. Is it possible to update the variable list when the user opens the vote dialog from the inBasket, to ensure the latest possible variable list is available? In theory it would be possible to update the variables from a trigger on the Activity2, but I would prefer to drive the update from the InBasket to reduce overheads at the time of (bulk) Activity2 Promotion. Many thanks, Martin.
