How can I Hide rates in Resource Worksheet
in [Project]
|
From: DNGRE on 25 May 2010 12:13 I work in an environment in which the hourly rates of project team members is considered sensitive information. Is there any way that I can conceal this information and still share the Project file with team members? Can I password protect the rates or make the resource sheet invisible to everyone except me? Thanks.
From: Andrew Lavinsky on 25 May 2010 12:19 Nope. Typically you could: 1) Invest in Project Server, and control the views to which they have access using their browser. 2) PDF specific views of the project schedule for their consumption (or use the Copy Project to Office Wizard) 3) Delete the rates manually or using a macro before distribution. Note that most folks frown on #3 as it's generally considered a bad (or at least undesireable) practice to distribute an MPP file for consumption purposes. #2 would probably be preferred. - Andrew Lavinsky Blog: http://blogs.catapultsystems.com/epm > I work in an environment in which the hourly rates of project team > members is considered sensitive information.

From: "Steve House" sjhouse at hotmail dot on 25 May 2010 17:30 Version doesn't matter, you can't selectively hide portions of the file. If someone has access to the file, they have access to all of it. If they're not high enough in the organization heirarchy to have access to salary/cost data, they're not high enough to access the original project file itself either. Give them what they need to know as reports and pdf screen shots. -- Steve House MS Project Trainer & Consultant "DNGRE" <DNGRE(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:FC40B5BF-D6BB-451A-8889-40C3D1629419(a)microsoft.com... > This question concerns MS Project 2007 > >
From: Rod Gill on 25 May 2010 17:52 A common method is to only use standard band rates for each resource that include overheads and other admin costs. That way direct pay rates are well hidden. otherwise Project Server Views or a macro to temporarily read rates from a spreadsheet or database, print reports then delete rates (can be done manually each time) are the only ways to go. -- Rod Gill Microsoft MVP for Project - http://www.project-systems.co.nz Author of the only book on Project VBA, see: http://www.projectvbabook.com "DNGRE" <DNGRE(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:CD8F8AB6-5053-4888-B26C-456E9D028B37(a)microsoft.com... > I work in an environment in which the hourly rates of project team members > is > considered sensitive information.
