New Project Type - blank fields on Dashboard

[fabio_bellocchio]

Dear SDN,

customer has created a new Project Type.

After creating, a project of this type is successfuly saved.

However, on the Dashboard, fields "System Status" and "Person Responsible" are blank, althought those values are there in the Project.

Please, does anyone know where these values are stored, for the Dashboard?

Why it's not being read from the same source as in the Project itself?

Thank you.

Hi Fabio,

Check in DPR_DASHBOARD table if they are filled for your projects.

Hi Sara,

Now, I have to find how to make them be filled.

Hi,

In transaction SPRO: Collaboration Projects -> Structure -> Define Project Types.

hi Fabio,

Check folowing customizing settings:

You activated the dashboard function for the appropriate project type and specified when evaluations are to be performed by choosing Evaluations and Dashboard in the Define Project Types IMG activity. If you do not do this, you only see the project name and the criticality level, for example, and no KPIs for the project.

You assigned the extract layout for the dashboard evaluations to the relevant project types in the Assign Extract Layouts to Project Types IMG activity. SAP supplies the 0_DASHBOARD layout with the standard system. You can display additional information in the dashboard by including new attributes in the layout for the dashboard evaluations.

You assigned icons to the attributes for the evaluations in the Define Attributes and Object Types for Evaluations IMG activity

All project types should be assigned to the extract layout "0_DASHBOARD" under "Evaluation"->"Assign Project Types to Extract Layouts"

The attributes that are part of the extract layout 0_DASHBOARD can also be changed in customizing

Also,

Dashboard columns empty stays empty because they are either filled by the report DPR_EVE_BATCH_DPO, or by saving the project, or by manually triggering the dashboard refreshing via the button "check". The question which of the three events refreshes the dashbaoard data can be set in customizing on project type level using the fields "use dashboard" and "check for threshold value violations

Thanks for the class Niraj.

Thanks Mathias.

Problem was fixed by customizing the project type:

- select "use dashboard" at "save" under "evaluations & dashboard"

- set "background, user, save".

Thanks a lot.

Cheers.

Hi Fabio,

Please check the project type customizing: did you select "use dashboard" at "save" under "evaluations & dashboard"?

2 options:

- either set "background, user, save".

- or schedule a job with report DPR_EVE_BATCH_DPO.

Sorry for the question, but........ where do I find the "project type customizing" ?

Thanks
