I have been attempting to programmatically update all projects to display accurate cost information through PWA (after recently adding a new cost rate to each resource with a future dated effective date). The documentation displays this information: ======================================== Enterprise resource data in the ProjectResourceDataTable table is refreshed at various times. The data contained in this table might not always be in synch with the data defined in the [Resource Web service] Web service. Any updates applied to this table do not update the [Resource Web service] Web service. When the data is refreshed, the data in this table is overwritten. ======================================== Is there a way to force a refresh of the enterprise resource data for a given project such that costs are totaled correctly?
Ideally all projects are opened in Project Pro then published. This can also be done through the PSI programming interface, see a sample app at: http://blogs.msdn.com/project_programmability/archive/2008/02/28/custom-field-and-lookup-table-webcast.aspx I'm not sure if a PSI publish re-calculates all formulae in custom fields tho, maybe someone can confirm or deny -- Rod Gill Microsoft MVP for Project Author of the only book on Project VBA, see: http://www.projectvbabook.com "bvladimiroff" wrote in message news:0A5047AD-9595-40A7-8D0C-C7279556AA0E@microsoft.com... >I have been attempting to programmatically update all projects to display > accurate cost information through PWA (after recently adding a new cost > rate > to each resource with a future dated effective date). > > The documentation displays this information: > > ======================================== > Enterprise resource data in the ProjectResourceDataTable table is > refreshed > at various times.
