INTRODUCTION

Issues that this hotfix package fixes

  • Assume that you have an Enterprise custom field that has a lookup table associated with a task. If you save a project, rows are added to the database unexpectedly. This increases the size of the database and causes slow performance.
  • The Task Updates page shows no updates when updates are pending.
  • Timesheet actuals are not populated in the Reporting database if an initial save or submit operation fails.
  • Consider the following scenario. You have an enterprise custom field in the project level. The custom field contains a formula. You log on Project Web Access (PWA) and a user accepts a task update from a resource. Then, you publish a plan to the project server. In this scenario, the record for this custom field is deleted unexpectedly from the database of the project server. Additionally, the record cannot be reported against the custom field.
  • Consider the following scenario. In the Timesheet feature, a resource uses the Add Lines feature to add the project summary task to the timesheet and to enter time. However, the time is not imported to My Tasks.
  • Assume that you have a task that starts on 2/22/2010, 2/24/2010 or 3/30/2010. When status updates are accepted for that task, the start date changes to a date in the past unexpectedly even though the status update does not require a start date change. This problem may also occur for tasks that start on other dates.
  • Assume that you synchronize a project between Microsoft Dynamics AX 2009 and Project Server 2007. When you edit the project in Project Professional 2007, the project is changed in a way that breaks integration with Dynamics AX 2009.
  • When you publish a project in Office Project Server 2007, the publishing job may take a long time to be completed. This is caused by an assignment exception that is defined in a way that results in an infinite loop.
  • The Task Updates page shows no update event when updates are pending.
  • When you use project server interface (PSI) to publish a project plan, the resource availability changes to 3 months later than expected.
