When you open and save projects, Schedule Connect coordinates updates between CA Clarity PPM and Microsoft Project, even when changes occur concurrently. To enable this coordination of information, Microsoft Project fields are mapped to CA Clarity PPM fields. You can do this using Studio.
When working in Studio, keep in mind the following:
Key information such as resources and the costing rules is controlled in CA Clarity PPM. You cannot save any changes to global information from Microsoft Project back to CA Clarity PPM. You can only save changes to global information locally. For example, suppose you create a resource in Microsoft Project and then reference it in your project. Verify that the resource is first created in CA Clarity PPM, and then the project saved to CA Clarity PPM.
Certain types of information are protected and cannot be updated or edited from Microsoft Project. For example, you can edit actuals when resources are enabled to use CA Clarity PPM timesheets. When you submit actuals, the project plan is recalculated when the actuals are compared with the estimates (ETC).
