    - Custom Field problem Today I was asked a simple question -- "How man person-days of time has the QA group put into Projects X,Y, and Z" Cool question. Its good to have them so comfortable with the schedules that they are starting to ask questions like that. I'm running Project2003 stand alone, master file, resource pool, 20 odd linked project files (plus a few small projects just in the master). My boss assumed it was as easy as looking at the summary tasks for the "work" column since I had filtered the view to Resource Group (QA), but that's not the way the rollups work. There's probably a way to answer that questiuon in reports but I haven't done at lot of work on that. I've been trying to learn about custom fields so I thought I would try and answer it that way. Insert a currently blank duration column Do the "customize fields" thing on that column. Set it for a formula Set the task/group summary to "sum" Set the display to "data" Nice and easy. It should now come down to the formula. I tried IIf(InStr([Resource Group],"QA",1)>0,[Work],0) (have to use InStr rather than StrComp as I need to ask for "resouce group contains" rather than "resource group equals"). The column in question is still filled with 0d durations including cells which should be filled with data. I've got the feeling its something obvious that I'm missing. Any suggestions?

    - Overallocation in resource with no tasks! Hi. I've been trying to update a plan where one of my resources is leaving the company. I've changed their resource availability so that it ends on their leaving date. After this I recalculated the plan so that I could find all tasks assigned to them after their leaving date and then move the tasks to a new resource. Having done all this, I am still getting an overallocation error for the resource but can not find any remaining tasks after their leaving date. I've checked it over and over with different leaving dates and found that Project seems to think their is a task assigned at some time in early June next year, this however does not show up in any of the views. I am now thinking that the database has some dud information in it that is causing the problem. My question therefore is: Is there a way of cleaning up the project file to remove any bad information, or is there another possibility for this problem? Dave.

    - MS Project 2002 - Hammock Tasks Hello, I am familiar with the MS advice on Hammock Tasks (141733 et al.) and have used them on a number of occasions to great effect in Project'98 and '2000. I am having difficulties in getting them to work correctly for a Client in Project'2002. Is there any advice or experience on this? Does v.2002-on handle these differently? I can find no new advice in the system concerning the later versions and would be grateful for an update. Many thanks, Jim Trickett Tag: billable hour time tracking Tag: 74022

    - Calculating end of project profit margin Using Custom fields I have set up my project to calculate the estimated and actual profit margin. The Task Cost field uses the billing rate and the Custom Field that calculates the Estimated Internal Cost uses the formula: [Work]*avaerage rate for resource (salary + average overheads). Subtract one from the other in another Custom Field and you have the margin. Actual Internal Cost uses the formula [Actual Work]*average rate. Subtract that from Cost and you have the Actual Margin. This is fine but I really want to see what the Profit Margin will be at the end of the project. Using Actual Work lets me see the margin decreasing or incresasing on a daily basis but I can't see where it is likely to end up, based on the current trend. To make it easy to see I'd also like to be able to graph this somehow. Any ideas how to do this? After this is achieved the next step is to role it out across the enterprise so we can see the overall picture across multiple projects....but one thing at a time.

    - Catching new filename after save as Usually the save as will fall into BeforeSave and ProjectAfterSave event after the file is saved. From there, I can retrieve the new file name. However, when I create a new project and close the project, the MSProject will ask to save or not, next I click yes and give a new name. Only BeforeSave will rise up. The problem with BeforeSave is only contains the old name. Is there anyway to get the new name from external program in this scenario? Cheers, Jonathan Tag: billable hour time tracking Tag: 74004

    - Resource Management Hi We are using Project 2000 with a Windows 2000 desktop. I have been tasked with looking at a way to improve resource mgmt for our IT area. Project 2000 is already widely used by the staff to manage their projects. However, there is no central resource pool for people to access - they have just been creating new resources within the project file each time a project is created. I have created a resource pool project file for the area(approx 20 people) which will be used in the future by the staff for planning their projects. There will probably be a maximum of 20-25 projects at a time 'attached' to this resource pool. After that long buildup my question is what is everyone's opinion regarding a way to show staff absense from work (ie unavailable)? I know that I can go into the actual resource pool and mark dates as being "nonworking time" for staff holidays/training/sick etc but is there a way to create an actual project file that shows this info? From a resource mgmt point of view we would like a way to not only see if a resource is just unavailable but also why it is unavailable - holidays/sick etc. I would welcome any advice. Thanks Tag: billable hour time tracking Tag: 73988

    - How do I join the Tasks and Resources tables in MS Project/Access I have exported a MS Project file to MS Access for reporting purposes and am attempting to join the MSP_RESOURCES table to the MSP_TASKS table. My initial analysis shows that there is no direct link between the two tables.

    - Configure resource allocation for part time resources Part time resources must be given their max. allocation as the total availability (e.g 50%). If that resource is allocated to a task for half their available time, we have to enter 25% in the Units field. It would be useful to be able to enter the units as 100% meaning "100% of their available time.

    - MS Project While trying to create a Master Project, I keep encountering a strange problem. I insert a project and it automatically has a finsih date for 1/24/06 (which is the finish date of the master project assigned automatically by MSProject) I have to expand the subtask in order for the correct date to show up for that particular project, and this happens for every new project I enter on my Master project. Then once I have done that there are other times that the dates change back to the 1/24/06 date on every project and I have to go back and expand each one for the correct dates to show up again.

EigenSearch processing will apply eigenvector math and Jacobian matrices to construct search terms that are tailored to your exploration. Cross-pollination is also applied as described below. The eigenvector approach is clearly highly advanced and would normally be useful for very sophisticated applications. Nevertheless, anyone may utilize the method. An advanced form is simply a matrix in which the user types words and phrases randomly in a multi-cell form (please click thumbnail to view). Advanced features EigenOperator (cross pollination) and eigenvector constructs Cross document content pollination within every web site directory tree (unlike conventional search engines and tools eigenSearch checks for your terms and phrases and drills down though multiple directory documents) EigenSearch cross-pollination is applied to documents within the same (tree) level in a URL (peer documents). Thereby limiting the amount of contamination of results Illustration: "Blood Hounds" + "English Breed" will present documents that contain either of these phrases within the same peer level in a document storage structure; for example, within the directory: www.smartdogs/hounds. eigenSearch limits pollinating occurrences outside a peer level. For example; "blood hounds" + "English breed" found in two different directories would not report an eigenSearch result: i.e. "Blood hounds" found in www.smartdogs/hounds and "English Breed" found in. www.smartdogs/hounds/Europe would not be found. EigenSearch therefore searches one tree (peer) level in a site and looks for multiple occurrences of multiple phrases across all documents within this peer level. Corporate products can be tailored to drill down infinite levels for eigenOperator (cross-pollinating operator) matching. eigenSearch single phrase results will find all documents and show the results as independent findings. This way the user can find results across many documents and the combined highly constrained results are reserved for a single level cross pollination. Extremely high (cross-pollinating) eigenValues will correspond to finely granular and refined search explorations. Beta users receive the following features: Login and password Save search constructs for later use in your own personal construct tables EigenOperator (cross Pollinating Operator) advanced features as described above (eigenvector to follow) Database (Table) upload and eigenvector computations EigenSearch seeks 300,000 beta testers for its advanced eigenOperator based cognitive engine. This engine will allow for a multiplicity of search parameters for users to select so as to mathematically narrow results. The system will employ eigenVectors, eigenValues and eigenMatrices to determine relevance to user searches; thereby rendering high fidelity confirmed search results. Naturally the computational power for doing such math is why beta testers are required. Each tester is welcome to comment on user friendliness, speed, change and ergonomic elegance. It is an eigenSearch goal to continue advancing the user interface so as to remain intuitively simple to use while at the same time providing hi-fidelity explorations. All beta testers will receive a login and password, which provides entry into features for saving search constructs and parameters according to their own classification approach. Saved results and parameters can be used at any time and modified to alter search results. Beta users will be able to import their own data sets (2-dimentional) and perform an eigenValue analysis. <r<p_ Tag: billable hour time tracking Tag: 73909
