This article describes update 4011227 for Microsoft Project 2016 that was released on November 7, 2017. This update has a prerequisite. Be aware that the update in the Microsoft Download Center applies to the Microsoft Installer (.msi)-based edition of Office 2016. It doesn't apply to the Office 2016 Click-to-Run editions, such as Microsoft Office 365 Home. (How to determine?)
Improvements and fixes
This update fixes the following issues:
-
When you save changes to a master project that's stored in a SharePoint document library, subprojects switch to read-only mode and aren't saved accordingly.
-
If you have Task Path feature enabled, Project 2016 may freeze when you select a task within your project.
-
After you set a timescale label to None in a timescaled view such as the Gantt chart, all labels for other timescale tiers disappear, and the label for the tier that you have selected to hide does not disappear.
-
Consider the following scenario:
-
You have a task in Project 2016 that is set to fixed duration and is effort-driven.
-
You have a resource assigned to the task.
-
Within a Task Form type view, you assign an additional resource to the task and specify the units for the resource to any value other than 100 percent.
In this scenario, the unit setting for the additional resource is 100 percent, and the name disappears.
-
-
Consider the following scenario:
-
You save a baseline in your project.
-
You query the database and check the MOD_DATE property for the given baseline.
-
You open the project and save a different baseline.
-
You query the database and check the MOD_DATE property for the two baselines.
In this scenario, you find that the values of the MOD_DATE property for the two baselines are the same. They should be different and reflect the dates on which you save the baselines.
