TPG ResourceLink for Your Resource Pool
Flexible Resource Updates of Microsoft Project Server

Companies deploying Microsoft Enterprise Project Management solutions are often faced with a big question: how do we keep large volumes of resource data from different Enterprise Resource Pool systems up to date, cost-effectively and without the risk of introducing errors? This is where TPG ResourceLink comes in.

Initial Population & Permanent Updates of Resources

Importing data manually into the Microsoft Project Server (version 2003 or 2007) from different systems can be time-consuming, so the information may not always be up to date.

TPG ResourceLink enables you to not only perform the initial population of the Microsoft Project Server Enterprise Resource Pool, but also to continually update it. You can use any data sources, including SAP, Active Directory, Dynamics and SQL Server. This makes it much easier for administrators to create, update, activate, deactivate, and delete resources in the Resource Pool.

In addition, the solution provides optimal support for project managers, because they can plan and calculate using the newest data on staff and costs.

Various Configuration Possibilities and High Performance

TPG ResourceLink is based on .NET (Version 2.0) and XML technology. The administration interface makes it easy to set various different import configurations.

The prerequisite for deploying TPG ResourceLink is a source system that can export the resources in XML. If the source system cannot supply this format, a conversion tool using XSL is available.

If required, the Windows Schedule Service can be used for updates.

Among TPG ResourceLink’s characteristics, the comprehensive configuration properties and the exceptional import performance are particularly notable.
