MS Project Integration with SharePoint (MOSS)
Microsoft Project is a project management tool that supports project planning (schedule development, resource definition and task assignments, budget, etc) and project tracking (schedule, resource, cost, etc). Whereas SharePoint is a collaboration platform from Microsoft that empowers individuals to efficiently share and centralize information.
There are two primary reasons why people want to potentially ‘share’ their Microsoft Project file or also known as a ‘Microsoft Project Plan’ in SharePoint:
![]() |
Empower project resources to update their tasks on the Microsoft Project plan (how much time they spent on a task, how far along they are, etc) |
![]() |
To display relevant reports (Is the project on schedule? What tasks are ahead/behind, Resource utilisation, etc) to executive stakeholders whenever they want it without having to rely on email. |
Project Server can import a task list from SharePoint 2010 or a Windows SharePoint Services site and convert the task list to a Proposals and Operations project for management by Project Web Access with simple timesheets, and task and resource management. Project Server can also convert a Proposals and Operations project to a full enterprise project management solution that includes schedule recalculations, cost management, and comprehensive reports.
To make Microsoft Project work with SharePoint:-
![]() |
Store the Microsoft Project (.mpp) plan in a SharePoint document library |
![]() |
Export Microsoft Project plan as an Excel spreadsheet and import it to SharePoint as a custom list |
![]() |
Synchronize Microsoft Project plan with SharePoint |
![]() |
Create a dashboard with SharePoint web parts from Microsoft Project information |
