Completed hidden task return to timesheet after republish

[Gene]

I keep seeing tasks that were completed and hidden onj a timesheets
return after I republish all of a resource's tasks. Is this how it
should work, or is there an option or method to not have the completed
and hidden tasks to reappear even if he task is republished? I guest
it is possible to just republish incompleted task using some filtering
but it is a lot easier to just republish all the tasks for all
resources each week.

I don't understand why you are using Collaborate - Publish - Republish
Assignments. After processing actuals into your Microsoft Project plan via
the Updates page in PWA, you should click Collaborate - Publish - All
Information. This will accomplish what you wish without unhiding hidden
completed tasks on each team member's timesheet page in PWA.

By the way, there are five main reasons to use Collaborate - Publish -
Republish Assignments, which are:

1. You entered actuals manually in the Microsoft Project plan and wish to
"push" the actuals to the resource's timesheet in PWA
2. You want to unhide a task accidentally hidden by the team member
3. You are taking over as the manager of another manger's project plan
4. To "push" your organization's new method of tracking progress to each
team member's timesheet in PWA
5. You have imported a project using the Import Project wizard

Hope this helps.

Thanks. That is our problem. We have been using republish and not
publish all.
