In general, you can set up Microsoft Project as you like. This section provides guidelines for setting up Microsoft Project to work effectively with CA Clarity PPM.
To set Microsoft Project options, select Options from the Tools menu.
For more information, see the Microsoft online help.
The following options are available:
On the Calculation tab, select Automatic Calculation. Automatic calculation is the preferred setting, but it is not required. If you select Manual Calculation, you must manually calculate the project before saving it to CA Clarity PPM. The project is recalculated whenever you open the project from CA Clarity PPM even if you have Manual Calculation as your calculation setting.
On the Calendar tab, select Set as Default. This setting helps ensure that the default start and end times match the shift schedule on your system wide standard calendar set in CA Clarity PPM.
On the View tab, clear the Show links between projects dialog on open check box. This feature is incompatible with CA Clarity PPM external dependencies, and is ignored when selected.
On the Save tab, change the file location as desired. In general, you can save the MPP files to any folder. However, if you share your computer with other users and update master projects, set the file location to a commonly shared folder.
See your Windows administrator for assistance.
