Update multiple tasks at once

We have imported a whole lot of MS Project schedules and wish to change the "Leaf Tasks Progress Reporting Policy" to Individual from shared. It is not an option to redo the import again as work has been done on the tasks.

Is there any way to run through the several thousand tasks that are incorrectly set and update all to be 'Individual'?

Chad, 

The easiest way to do this is to show all of the Work Items, expose the 'Leaf Tasks Progress Reporting Policy' field to the work plan as a column. Activate the first one and then do a copy/Paste to the others.

You can also do a separate Data Loader upload that will update all of these items with this setting but that will likely take longer. In the future, you can add that field and desired value (i.e. TRUE for Enabled) to any Work Item level Uploads going forward.

 

Sincerely, 

Boris
