    Hello Guys,

     

    Is there any possibility to remove Workbench option from Scheduler? if yes, could you please steps or guidance?

    As far as I know, the Scheduler drop-down you are referring to , is actually based on the attribute Scheduler Format in Project object. It appears that for the project in question its value is set to Open Workbench . You can check or modify the same by configuring the field in List page(and allowing grid editing). It can be changed to Microsoft Project but I am not sure of a way to completely remove both formats in the Scheduler drop-down.

    The values come from the lookup Scheduler. As it is system restricted you are not supposed to alter them in any manner nor add a blank value (or None).

    Thanks urmas 

    Just to clarify, I was actually referring to altering the attribute value and not the lookup values. I referred 'drop-down' for options to open in scheduler and not the lookup.

    Some notes I made for myself sometime ago... up to you what you do with them...

     

    ---

    Open In Scheduler

    This dropdown appears across many “project pages” – can not affect it by data (eg by nulling the scheduler format column on the database).

     

    File projectPageToolbar.xsl located in directory{NIKU_HOME}\META-INF\projmgr\vxsl\portlets\projects\ contains the code that builds the page.

     

    Comment out (or remove) the lines;

     

          <xsl:call-template name="projectSchedulerLaunchActions">

            <xsl:with-param name="can_view" select="$can_view_mgt"/>

            <xsl:with-param name="readOnly" select="not($can_copy)"/>

          </xsl:call-template>

     

    And restart the APP  (or just flush the 'VXSL' groups cache)

    ----

     

    I think that that removes the options entirely though, so if you still want Gantt then you'd need to experiment.

    Thanks David. But we want Gantt in Scheduler drop down list. If it remove all then we can't use this option.
