Create a Project to Import Risks from Deltek PPM

When you import a risk register from Deltek PPM to connect an Acumen project with a Deltek PPM project, you have the option to create a new project from Acumen.

To create a project from Acumen, complete the following:

  1. Select the S3 // Risk tab.
  2. In the Import / Publish group, click Deltek PPM.
  3. Click Create Project from Acumen.
  4. In the Deltek PPM Project Name Already Exists dialog box, change the project name in the field.
    The new project cannot have the same name as projects that already exist in Deltek PPM. In addition, you will need to create a name without special characters, such as the following:
    • ASCII control codes ASC(1-31)
    • Non-breaking space ASC(160)
    • Less than sign ">" (ASC(60))
    • Greater than sign "<" (ASC(62))
  5. Click OK.
  6. Click Link.
  7. In the Please Select Risks To Import dialog box, select or clear the corresponding checkboxes of the risks you want to import.
  8. Click OK.
    After you have successfully linked a Deltek PPM project to an Acumen project, an "R" icon will display next to the project name in the Risk Register tree.
