I need to extract some information from resources in PWA to a Excel Spreadsheet where the data will be used to create high-level budgets. Since this must be a template for all projects, I'm trying to decide what's my best option to do it so the users do not have to worry about copy-paste, connections and so on.
My first option was to simply add a connection to the Project Server Reporting database and retrieve the resources' data to the workbook but since I need to consider Cost Tables I cannot do it that way. I can only get the Standard Rate using that approach.
Second option is to create a VBA code in Excel to retrieve data by using the references to the Project Model.
Third option is to create a VBA code in Project to push data to Excel once the resources are already been selected in the project.
Someone has any ideas?
Thanks in advance
