Using control center functionality

Kaveri Vipat

Hello Everyone,

Hope you are doing great

I just wanted to check if is there any way to add the existing project sheets to the Control Center, If I like to change or update anything in all the Projects sheets through the Global /update functionality so it will reflect in all the Projects including the existing projects.

Thanks for the Help!!!

Hi @Kaveri Vipat

I hope you're well and safe!

I usually do this with my Control Center clients when they have projects they want to include in CC. I develop an Import solution because all projects you want to handle through CC have to be provisioned through it. If possible, I use Automated Provisioning, so everything happens automatically in the background.

Make sense?

Would that work/help?

I hope that helps!

Be safe and have a fantastic week!

Hi @Andrée Starå

Thank you for your response

Can you explain to me in detail how to Import solutions and Automated Provisioning or can share links so I can learn from there?

Thanks for your help!! Much appreciated

Happy to help!

Unfortunately, I can't explain/detail the Import Solution because they are different for each client/need.

Here's more information about Automated Provisioning.

Hello Andrée,

I understand that you are unable to 'find & replace' predecessor with global updates through Control Centre.

I'm wondering if there is another way/roundabout way to do this that would be quicker than having to do so in each individual project plan.

I was hoping I could use a report but notice that when I pull the predecessor column in a report all that is returned is '1 Predecessor'

Thanks in advance for your help.
