Clarity

When the user modify the tasks and try to save , the changes doesn't reflect when opened next time.

For eg.

1 .user save the plan by changing the task 5

Milestone = yes

Duration = 0 days

2..opening after saving. The value again rolled back to “NO” and 1 day.

Please find the attached file for screen shot.

Kindly share the feedback if any

Hi Asha.41,

I found similar thread in communities as below.

MSP: Avoid non zero duration in milestones 

I hope it is helpful for your issue.

So their is no fix for this issue? 

Could any one help with this?

Hi Asha,

Can you have them try the below steps to make the task a milestone? If the user manually enters 0 as the duration which it seems like above, this can later change the milestone into a task. (Excerpt from: Microsoft Project (MSP) Task Integration with CA PPM - CA PPM - 15.4 - CA Technologies Documentation  below)

1. Open the Task Information box.
2. Click on the Advanced tab.
3. Click in the Mark task as milestone box.
4. Do not enter a zero value into the Duration box.

If you do and at some time in the future another value is placed in the duration field, the milestone will convert into a task.

Let me know if this doesn't help.

Kristin

Hi kristin,

its didnt work.

i tried to  Mark task as milestone box. But when i did not enter the milestone it throws me an error. 

Please help.

Thanks,

Hi Asha,

I think we'll need to look at this one via a support case so we can look at the project, XML, and also settings on the workstation, as so far, I can't reproduce. Some things that can make a difference are what Microsoft Project update is installed on the workstation (is it the latest supported one listed at How do Microsoft Project monthly patches impact CA - CA Knowledge), do the MSP settings for the project match that on the required list How to Configure Default Settings in Microsoft Pro - CA Knowledge ), and some other options, but if those are okay, then this may require more investigation via a case.

Kristin
