#projectserver2013 Issues part 2 - Cannot close timesheet periods

#projectserver2013 Issues part 2

Following on from my previous post, here's some other tidbits of anomalies on PS2013

Close Timesheet Periods
There's an issue with page rendering and IE versions here.  When attempting to close periods, the changes cannot be saved

symptoms:
Javascript error on page (syntax error at line 1408)

Occurs on
IE8
IE9

The problem appears to be a page call to /pwa/_Layouts/15/pwa/admin/PeriodCloseConfirmation.aspx

I expect (unconfirmed) that the issue is because of Timesheets that have not been submitted for a period I wish to close.  However some resources do NOT complete timesheets in our configuration so this is ok.

When I looked at the code I found a call to this PeriodCloseConfirmation page which I assume is supposed to load when this event occurs, but it does not.

This looks a fairly substantial issue right now.  I'd be interested to know if anyone else sees the same thing.

Restoring PWA Site to another Web App in the same Farm

The scenario is this: SharePoint 2016 Farm with Project Server Two Web Apps Development UAT One PWA on Development Web App. I want to copy the PWA Site on Development web app to UAT to support a testing cycle. As far as I knew there were two options: 1) Content Database Restore and Attach Process would be backup your Dev Content Database, Restore to a new Content Database for QA, then mount the database on the appropriate web app and your off.... Problem:  Although you can do this with the -AssignNewDatabaseID switch in Powershell (to avoid two content db's having the same database id) the Site Collection (PWA) in the db still retains its SiteID which means there is a duplicate SiteID in the Configuration Database.  This stops the PWA site being created and alllocated correctly and becomes essentially orphaned. This method is only any good for MOVING not COPYING Back to the drawing board... 2) Backup-SPSite / Restore-SPSite I didn't believe this ...

Reporting from Project Server 2016 - multiple sites and userviews

Just a quickie... I've been interested in how MS have handled the "multiple PWA sites in a Content DB" thing since I read that this was their new approach.  Most of my reporting is via SSRS so i am reliant (still... in 2016) on DB queries rather than OData feeds (tsk) and this "querying a PWA DB with more than one PWA site in it is unsupported" quote was worrying me. So it looks like what is happening is this. When you create the first PWA site in a Content DB it hard-codes the SiteID into the _Userview view design elements.  This means that your first PWA Site is the default.  All the data for subsequent sites are still held in the tables against separate SiteID's but you cannot utilise the OOTB _Userview components (see below) SELECT        ProjectFields.... FROM            pjrep.MSP_TVF_EpmProject('FF19B767-CA6D-4C4C-B123-C0B5AE5354D6') AS MSP_EpmProject  LEFT OUTER JOIN         ...
