I thought tasks were universal across the collections of Project Web Sapces in Project Server. Is there a difference between the Tasks in PWA and the tasks in a Project Work Space (PWS)? How do you differentiate between the two types of Task?
Why does Risks behave differently for the Reminders web part. I can see a list of outstanding Risks assigned to a user associated in PWSs. There seems to be no difference between PWA risks and PWS risks.
What am I missing? | Your original posting referred to "Status Reports" -- I guess you meant Risks. In order for Risks to show up in this web part, they have to be assigned to the person and also marked with a Status of (1) Active -- any other Status will result in it not showing up on the page.
Tasks contained in a Project Workspace are not considered "Tasks" by Project Server -- only Tasks within a Project plan. Most of my clients use Tasks in Workspaces to track Action Items derived from meetings and so forth, or to track things like feature requests, trouble tickets, etc.
