Use these steps when you have a single project that is made up of multiple Project Server projects and you want to select additional or different projects.
To select additional or alternate projects for a single Project Server project:
-
On the Activity Details Pane General tab, click the ellipses button on the
Original Project Name field.
The Import dialog box displays with the current projects selected.
-
Deselect any existing projects that you don't want included, and select additional or different projects to be included in the single project and click
OK.
If the selected projects have different Time Now dates, Acumen displays a message letting you know and asking if you would like to import all the projects and use the latest Time Now date. After import, you can see the Time Now date on the Activity Details Pane Status tab.
If the you experience timeouts on the server or if the system becomes too slow or unusable, consider setting the Number of Rows per Server Request to a higher or lower number. This field sets the number of rows that Acumen will request each time from the server. For example, if you set the number to 10, Acumen requests the first 10 rows and then goes back for 10 more, and so on. This field is located in the Deltek Acumen Options dialog box on the Platforms (Microsoft) page.
NEXT STEP: Import the project data into Acumen.
