Data Exchanges between Microsoft Project and CA Clarity PPM

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.

When working in Studio, keep in mind the following:

• Enter the PRNAME field in the MSPField table in lowercase and set the attribute ID value used in Studio.
• CA Clarity PPM does not map custom assignment attributes to Microsoft Project.

Key information, such as resources and the costing rules, are controlled in CA Clarity PPM. If you modify this information in Microsoft Project, your changes are not saved in CA Clarity PPM.
