Removing Tasks from My Tasks
A common question I get from administrators and users is how to remove tasks from the My Tasks page in Project Server 2007.
The ways a task “disappears” from a user’s My Tasks page:
- The Project Manager sets the Published field to No for the task and publishes the project
- In MS Project, the Task is deleted and/or the resource assignment is removed
- The user sets the view to only include “Current Tasks” and the task start-end date range fails outside of the current task date range
Some additional suggestions from Patrick Conlan:
- An Administrator removes the project from the Published and Reporting databases
- The Project Manager changes the resource in the plan from committed to proposed
- The Project Server hacker modifies the MSP_WEB_SP_QRY_Statusing_ReadStatus stored procedure in the Published database to filter out more records (of course, this would not be supported by Microsoft)
Let me know if you know any others.
