OnePager uses the updated Microsoft Project '''source plan''' to '''add''' snapshots to record how the project progresses between reporting periods.  Once charts are created, they can be updated from the '''OnePager Pro Start''' form by launching OnePager from the '''Desktop Icon''' and doing a '''Push Update'''.  By '''push''' we mean that the updated Microsoft Project '''source plan''' is '''Pushed''' to OnePager.  This distinction is important since OnePager also enables the '''Pull Update''' method.

Overview Flow Chart

During the course of a project, work is accomplished, new tasks start, other tasks finish, and, from time to time, dates are adjusted. These changes are usually picked up as part of a regular reporting process. When updated, the Microsoft Project source plan becomes the source for reporting schedule updates.

OnePager uses the updated Microsoft Project source plan to add snapshots to record how the project progresses between reporting periods. Once charts are created, they can be updated from the OnePager Pro Start form by launching OnePager from the Desktop Icon and doing a Push Update. By push we mean that the updated Microsoft Project source plan is Pushed to OnePager. This distinction is important since OnePager also enables the Pull Update method.

For more information on the Pull method for adding a snapshot to the chart, please see the article at: ADDING a Snapshot via Pull Operation - OnePager Pro

The scenario for accomplishing this periodic process is shown below:

P70-7 7 2-70-(1)-08092019.png

Procedure

1) Launch OnePager from the Desktop Icon.
2) The splash page appears briefly followed by the One Pager Chart Editor form displaying the OnePager Pro Start form.
3) Select the UPDATE button on the OnePager Pro Start form as shown below:
P70-7 7 2-70-(2)-08092019.png
4) Clicking the UPDATE button displays a list of recently-used charts and the word BROWSE FILES… option. Select the desired chart as shown above and OnePager accesses the OnePager choices (OPC) form shown here:
P70-7 7 1-70-(2A)-08092019.png
5) Select the NEW snapshot at date: radio button and use the calendar dropdown list to select the date for this snapshot as shown here:
P70-7 7 1-70-(3)-08092019.png
6) Then, click Next> or New depending on whether the Show column mappings checkbox is checked ON.
7) OnePager takes the Microsoft Project source plan data under the control of the Flag/Number field and produce a new snapshot in the chart at the date selected.

Once the updated chart is open, you can edit, save, and copy the chart to a Microsoft PowerPoint slide or elsewhere as described previously. When you save the chart, the newly created snapshot is stored in the chart’s .TAM file along with all its other snapshots. Some care needs to be taken to make sure that the update uses the correct Flag setting. The chart is designed to remember which Flag setting, so the updates are consistent unless you accidentally change the Flag. A chart can contain as many snapshots as you like. When there are multiple Flag/Number fields in a Microsoft Project plan from which OnePager imports data, it’s a good idea to glance at the Flag setting before hitting the large New button.
