INTRODUCTION

This hotfix fixes the following issues that are not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article:
  • In Project Server 2007, you inactivate and then delete a resource from the Enterprise Resource Pool (ERP). When you open a project that contains the resource, the resource is changed to both an inactive enterprise resource and a local resource.
  • A milestone task that has a cost resource assigned loses the cost data when you update a different task in the plan.
  • The duration calculation for work that is entered on nonworking time is not calculated as expected.
  • After a resource updates a task in Project Web Access (PWA) and submits the update, the task update is submitted to a project manager other than the designated status manager.
  • The Timephased data total is calculated incorrectly when you apply a grouping to the Resource Usage view.
  • In some situation, the finish date of a task may be changed unexpectedly after you enter actual cost.
  • It may take a long time to save projects. This causes CPU spikes on SQL Server.
  • The budget work is not rolled up on the right side pane when you group by any custom field in the Resource usage view.

    Note The budget work is rolled up on the left side pane.
  • When you open a plan that has some resources assigned, the remaining work on the summary task on the Resource Usage view is not updated correctly. If you open other plans that also have these resources assigned, the remaining work is updated correctly.
  • Project Professional crashes when you expand a subplan in a master plan that is opened from the server. This issue may be caused by a custom calendar.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
