Project Reporter Help: Supported fields

Supported fields

Because MPX files can contain virtually any combination of task and resource fields, Project Reporter does not necessarily support all variants of the MPX format. The minimum set of fields required to generate meaningful reports in Project Reporter is as follows:

Project: Start date, Finish date, Current date.
Task: ID, Name, Milestone, Outline level, Percent Complete, Start, Finish.
Resource: Name, ID.
Assignment: ID.

If any of these required fields is missing in an MPX file, Project Reporter will display an error message when you attempt to load it.

If you are working with subprojects or or cross-project dependencies, you should also include the task fields Project, Subproject File, and Successors.

Following are some general guidelines on the MPX variants supported by Project Reporter:

MPX files created from the default export table in Microsoft Project 95 or Project 98 are supported.
The order of the fields for tasks or resources in the export tables is not important.
Different currency settings (specifying the currency symbol, whether it is before or after the number, and how many decimal places to display) are supported.
Different date formats are supported, but only those which specify the month, date, and year in some form — for example, the date format "Mon 12/19" would not be supported.

The following table lists all of the fields supported by Project Reporter when using MPX files.
