Create a Presentation Master Schedule
|
| From several Microsoft Office Project Server
Projects |
|
|
|
 |
|
| Milestones Professional and
Milestones Project Companion can work with Microsoft Project Server
2003 or later. It's possible to combine several published
schedules from Microsoft Office Project Server and generate a single
Milestones presentation chart. |
| |
| In this article, you will learn
how to: |
| |
- combine Microsoft
Project Server 2003 files into a single master file.
|
| |
- import that master
file into Milestones for presentation.
|
| |
- refresh that
Milestones presentation schedule.
|
|
This
Milestones schedule shows what we want to create: a summary of
multiple Microsoft Project files.
|
| Then, we simply want to
"refresh" this presentation schedule with the latest
Microsoft Project
changes. |
|

|
| |
|
First, logon to Microsoft Project Server.

 |
|
| Next, for this example,
we inserted 3 of the projects which we
stored on Project server. |
| |
| Within
Microsoft Office Project: |
| |
-
Insert Project,
Project 2
-
Insert
Project, Project 3
-
Insert
Project, Project 5
|
|
|
|

|
| |
| |
|
Don't publish this project to the Project Server;
instead, save it locally as a file.

Here is the resulting Milestones schedule, which
we can now format to meet any reporting needs. |
|
 |
| |
| After some basic formatting changes, this is our
executive-level Milestones presentation schedule. |
