RM576296Dynamics 365 Project Operations: Restrict task assignments to project team members

Summary

This feature strengthens assignment governance by limiting the resources displayed in the Assigned to column to members of the current project team. Project managers can assign tasks only to resources who have already been added to the project, instead of selecting from the organization’s complete resource list.

Description

This feature strengthens assignment governance by limiting the resources displayed in the Assigned to column to members of the current project team. Project managers can assign tasks only to resources who have already been added to the project, instead of selecting from the organization’s complete resource list.

If a resource isn’t part of the project team, the resource must first be added to the team before being assigned a task. This controlled workflow keeps task assignments aligned with the project’s defined staffing model and prevents resources from being assigned outside the established project team.

This is for both Project Operations core and Project Operations connected with ERP deployment types.
