Inheritance project name from item when creating item and project with a template

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are on PPM6.1.

I created the templates and customized Map Item Template to Project Template or PS Project and Map Item Type to Project or PS.

I create an item with a template and automatically creates a project with a template (t-code "Import from Microsoft Excel to Items"), the name of the project is inherited from the project template but we need from the item. Is it possible without development?

I tried to change project names with "Import from Microsoft Excel to Projects" but this transaction does not have the Change option then I tried the t-code RPM_DX but it does not have a button "Display DX Layout" for download the Microsoft Excel workbook as a template that includes all the fields available and field structure of Microsoft Excel workbook from "Import from Microsoft Excel to Projects" don't accordance input field structure RPM_DX (I get errors when I upload Microsoft Excel workbook).

Please advise.

Dear Georgii,

You can use DFM attribute synchronization from Item to Project Management Project to transfer the data from Item to project. Information can you find in Wiki under the following link: https://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=450463258

Dear Judith,

Thanks! This is what I was looking for, the answer was in the settings "Maintain Field Mappings".
