Re: Third party Integration - How to Map Fields in MS Project?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hello Julie,

Thanks for the response. Well I am using MS Project Professional 2007.
The idea is to create a project plan in ms project & push this data to System.
And after that pull the Actual info from System & update ms project file.
I am sending the Baseline data as planned data to System
And setting Actual data of MS Project by reading from System.

I am facing problem in setting actual data in MS Project.
When i update ActualStart, it somehow updates Start & ActualStart remains
blank. :(

Regards,
Sharjeel

Hello Sharjeel,

Are you mapping your data to the Actual Start fields or the Start
fields in the map? As you note, when updating Actual Start and
Actual Finish, the Start and Finish fields will change to match the
Actual dates. Are you saying that when you update Actual Start you
are not seeing the Actual Start value stay in Project?

Give us a bit more information about your map definition and we'll
try to be more helpful. Please also let us know what version of
Project (2003? 2007?) including service pack you are using.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

We have a Basic Task management system, with task id, description,
work,
planned & actual dates. We want to synchronize this with MS
Project. I am
able to map most of System's fields with MS Project.
The problem comes when i am trying to update 'Actual
Start/Finish/Work'
fields. Instead of updating those fields it actually updates
'Start/Finish/Work' fields.

When i do it manually it updates both ( that is fine as I have set
the
Baseline ).
But programmatically i am not able to achieve the same.

Any help would be appreciated..
