MS Project 2010 - Project Plan Sync to SharePoint Site

MS Project 2010 - Project Plan Sync to SharePoint Site
In MS Project 2010, PM can publish a project plan to SharePoint site. This feature allows the collaboration between PM and his/her team members. Team members can see their tasks in SharePoint site and it also possible that team members can edit the schedule data (% complete, start date or due Date etc.)
NOTE: Sync to SharePoint is a Project 2010 feature, but not a Project Server feature. Once your Project Professional 2010 client connected to MS Project Server 2010, sync to SharePoint feature will be disabled. If you create a project plan on your local machine without connecting to server, you can save the plan to pre-existing SharePoint site. Also you can sync the edits between project plan and SharePoint site. This feature is useful in the scenario where Project Server is not available and PM want to collaborate the project plan with team members or with other PM. The other PM/team leader can also perform the schedule edits in SharePoint site, so original PM can synchronize the updates to project plan. (OR) This feature is useful in the scenario where you have Project Server 2010, but you would like to publish the project plan to the SharePoint site rather than Project Server.
