Not able to add/edit project activities? 17-11-2015 Creator: Peter Dean

[TalaiaOpenPPMParticipant]

Hi,

I am evaluating OpenPPM and have completed the Easy installation.

I have created a project, and am now in the planning phase.

I have created a simple WBS which validates OK. I have also added deliverables. However I cannot see how to add or edit project activities – if I search, only the highest level WBS is displayed. The Manual indicates that they should appear based on the WBS, however no green “+” button appears for me either as PMO role or Project Manager role. See screenshot at: https://i1298.photobucket.com/albums/ag55/deanderwent/Captureopenppm_zps90spqlxx.jpg

As I cannot add activities, I cannot plan human resources..

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks.
Peter

I think I have resolved this – need to uncheck Control Account of the highest level Project WBS. I’ll read the manual next time!

🙂 Good to hear and see that the documentation is useful.

Hello

I have recently installed OpenPPM 4.2.9. using the easy install. I have created the various roles required as well as the team resources and a program.

I have created the WBS items, and have unchecked Control Account as noted above, however, I still cannot create any activities. There is no “+” at the end of the Activities bar.

I am logged in as the Project Manager.

Is there something else I have missed

Hi Anthony,

From you are telling,I could simply be a internet browser issue. Try to clear all you cookies and temp files and log again.

Let me know it that works.
