Hello IFS Project specialists,

I have a few issue with the MS Project integration, have you come across this please:

1. "Fixed Duration" versus "Fixed Work": Need to check how we can make MSP to inherit the "Fixed Work" instead of "Fixed Duration" on the task lines when importing Project Data from IFS. Tasks in MSP inherit the “Fixed Duration” as the Task Type upon Importing Project from IFS. As a result, values in “Work” and “Duration” columns along with budget figures changes from the values that are in IFS.

2. All tasks inherit “Manually Scheduled” instead of “Auto Scheduled” which again disrupts data in MSP side compared to IFS.Tasks in MSP inherit the “Manually Scheduled” upon Importing Project from IFS. As a result, values in “Work” and “Duration” columns along with budget figures changes from the values that are in IFS.

3. Actual Work in MSP that was brought over from IFS shows actual work hours against future months where they should not have any actual work!

Thanks

Serge
