Populating Project Resources

Posted on by Microsoft Employee

Help Please! Am trying to add a new worker to be able to create an expense report. I go into workers, new, and fill out the screen, etc. When I select Hire, I get the error: 

Project resource data has not been populated. Please populate the data by running the ‘Populate project resources across all companies’ batch job.

So I run the batch job just as it says and another error, saying the batch job has already been run. Also try to add a different worker as a project worker, and get the exact same error.

    We would need some more info to troubleshoot this. I would suggest opening a support ticket to have somebody from the support team help you out as it might need deeper investigation, unless anybody here has come across this issue and found a solution already!

    What deployment scenario have you got here? Is it the new integrated mode? Have you loaded the project operations demo data into F&O and applied the latest updates to the environment? Can you share the version details from the help > about menu in the top right?
