MicrosoftВ® Office Project 2007 Step by Step (Step By Step (Microsoft))
Chapter at a Glance
In This Chapter, You will Learn How To:
-
Create a risk in Project Web Access and associate it with a project. -
Create an issue, associate it with a project, and assign it to someone for resolution. -
Create a document library for a project and upload a document.
Project Server integrates with Windows SharePoint Services (WSS). In fact, the Project Web Access (PWA) interface is built from WSS Web parts. This integration adds the risk, issue, and document management capabilities of WSS to a Project Server-based enterprise project management (EPM) system.
With WSS integrated with Project Server, some features of WSS are applied in ways that make them more applicable to EPM. Document lists in WSS, for example, can now be associated with specific projects in the Project Server database or with tasks within those projects.
Each project published to Project Server receives a WSS subweb provisioned for it. PWA users then interact with the WSS Risks, Issues, and Documents pages directly in PWA. Risks, issues, and documents can all play essential roles in supporting Project Server-based EPM, and we’ll walk through each of these on the following pages.
| Important | This chapter does not use practice files and is not written for hands-on practice. We do not assume that you have access to Project Professional and Project Server or to the sample database in Project Server that we illustrate here. Instead, this and the other chapters in Part 4 describe and illustrate important features of a Project Server-based enterprise project management (EPM) system. |
