public void UpdateTimeSheetSettings(
TimeSheetSettingsDataSet dsDelta
)
Parameters
- dsDelta
Type: [Admin Web service].TimeSheetSettingsDataSet
Contains the new timesheet settings.
Remarks
Timesheet settings can be set on the Timesheet Settings and Defaults page in Project Web App (http:///ServerName/ProjectServerName/_layouts/pwa/Admin/TSSettings.aspx).
Properties in the TimeSheetSettingsDataSet.TimeSheetSettings[0] row have constraints; they cannot be null. Use the ReadTimeSheetSettings method to get the current settings, and then make changes.
Project Server Permissions

Allows the user to manage timesheets that are submitted by resources. Global permission. |
Examples
The following example reads the current timesheet settings, changes the values of WADMIN_TS_MAX_HR_PER_TS and WADMIN_TS_MIN_HR_PER_TS in the TimeSheetSettingsDataSet, and then uses the UpdateTimeSheetSettings method to change the maximum hours and minimum hours per timesheet. The example uses the SvcAdmin namespace in the ProjectServerServices.dll proxy assembly. The example also writes the updates that are in the new TimeSheetSettingsDataSet to an XML file.
Note
The ConfigClientEndpoints method uses an app.config file for setting the WCF binding, behavior, and endpoint. For information about creating a PSI proxy assembly and an app.config file, see Prerequisites for WCF-Based Code Samples.

Following is an example of the UpdateTimesheetSettings.xml file that the application saves. The WADMIN_TS_MIN_HR_PER_TS element and the WADMIN_TS_MAX_HR_PER_TS element are updated.
