We are rolling out a global instance of TFS 2010 in our organisation which will be used both internally and externally (vendors). I'd like to be able to get some reports of the daily activity across all the Team Project Collections and Team Projects for things like:
Total number of Team Projects
Total number of Checkins/changesets per day/month/etc
Total number of bugs/issues logged per day/month/etc
Total number of bugs/issues resolved per day/month/etc
Datbase sizes for Team Project Collections
This information will be incrediably useful to help understand what the uptake and usage is like. It will also help to plan when/how we are going to need to scale our environment.
What's the best way to acheive this? Building my own custom reports in SSRS? Creating custom web parts for our integrated SharePoint environment? Or, are there any products out there that can help?

I have a project with more than 10 datasets and one dataset has more than 70 tables(tables created for beginner level and intermediate level). If I share my project publicly, my project name and project id will be exposed to many students. Is it safe to do like this? Will I be hacked or attacked by using the project name and project id by others?
As long as you only give the role dataViewer, the people whom you shared the project with will only be able to get the data from your tables, not modify it or insert jobs (that's what actually has cost).
This will force users to use their own projects to run jobs querying your datasets.
However, I would suggest you not to share this completely publicly. If you're using G Suite in your school, or if you know the Google accounts (most likely Gmail) from your students, you should create a Google group with the people who requires the access, and then giving permission to that group.
Is there any API or command line tools for getting iOS application statistics? I did read about the Java Reporter and Autoingestion tools but they are extensive enough in terms of reports. I need to get a report like every month how many users installed, uninstalled, where are they from, etc. There is some data in the sales report its not exactly what we are looking for. I am only concerned about usage and installation statistics and not sales or finance.
I have to generate macros to be run in Microsoft project.
I am not able to perform the calculations to get a result, even after a lot of research.
It is 14 quality checks for your IT project schedule.
I am trying to perform the easiest one first that is Resource Check.
Resources Check identifies all the tasks that do not have resources (people or costs) assigned. A quality schedule has all resources assigned to tasks in the schedule.
Green Flag = < 5% of tasks meeting any of the above logic.
Red Flag = > 5% of tasks meeting any of the above logic.
How do I perform this?
Try googling Eversight for Microsoft Project - it's a free add on for project 2010 that allows you to set up your own quality check profiles, including your own RAG thresholds.
I'm trying to determine the best way to utilize SharePoint 2013 to manage a very large project with a number of hierarchical elements. I've thought about using cascading/embedded group permissions (doesn't appear to be possible), audience targeting (I'm concerned about user's ability to understand and correctly enter the appropriate target audience), using some kind of session variable fed from a SharePoint list to determine how to characterize entries but then I need a way to auto filter them in lists (seems awfully complex and not sure this will even work). So I'm wondering if I'm missing a better way to do this. This being the following:
I have various staff levels: people at the bottom who are located at a site, a person at the site that is the manager, a hub that links various sites, areas that oversee hubs and include an area manager. I'd like these various people to be able to see only whats relevant to them so for a simple example: a list with a calendar view. An area lead should be able to see all entries made by his site leads, while a site/hub manager should only be able to see entries made by people under their respective site/hub. This would work perfect if I could assign groups to groups and then filter the list instead of by [me] by [(some permission filter option)]
There has got to be a simple way to do this, anyone have any ideas? I think I'm missing some capability of SharePoint 2013 to do something like this and thus am making it harder than it should be.
My questions is as follows:
Is there a way to make a master project plan incorporating multiple projects (not necessarily sub projects) in Microsoft office. As our resources get pushed around due to parts and items not arriving and shipping dates being moved forward amongst other things etc, sometimes the resource plan has to be changed regularly. I want to be able to pull all current projects into a master project plan so that I can identify where project resources are overlapping. Not necessarily by task but more by employee.
To try and explain a bit better:
Project 1:
Project Manager: John
Project Engineer: Jack. Task - Drawing
John assigns Jack to work on a task in Project 1.
Project 2:
Project Manager: Mark
Project Engineer: Jack. Task - Documentation
Jack wasn't supposed to be working on Project 2 for a further 2 weeks but the deadline has been moved forward and Mark has also assigned Jack to work on a task on his project.
I'd like to create a master project where I can pull in Project 1 and Project 2 and find a way for it to identify the resource overlap, regardless of the fact that Jack has been assigned to 2 different tasks, but more because he as an employee has been assigned to two projects at once.
Is this possible?
On a larger scale realistically I'll need this to incorporate about 6 Projects and about 20 staff members across, so I can find all the overlaps.
I am aware that there is a way to split a person between 2 tasks by assigning a percentage that they will work on both, i.e 90% on task 1 and 10% on task 2 but obviously this won't be project exclusive and my aim is to identify the overlaps rather than create them on purpose for resource sharing.
You are basically looking for software to support your "resource leveling" process.
The ]project-open[ open-source PPM software is capable of importing MS-Project schedules. After the import, you can get Resource Management reports from the system that allow you to perform manual resource leveling.
Another interesting open-source tool is TaskJuggler. TJ actually does multi-project scheduling or automatic resource leveling. However, TJ does not include a MS-Project integration at the moment AFAIK.
Affiliation note: I'm a member of the ]project-open[ team.
Depending on how you want to approach this, you can have a single master project and make all of your other project files sub projects in that master file. You can work in this master file and it will save your updates to the other files. It is sort of like having Project server on your desktop. You can create veiws for each project, or simply roll them up and they show as a single summary task.
You can do this by using a shared resource file but the best way now would be to just get a Project Online subscription and do your projects there.
