I do not have the ability to map ProjectWise attributes within Promis.e. Error message is attached.
I even setup the Promis.e setup configuration with the login of a regional ProjectWise administrator within my company. Even with her security privileges, it still gave the same alert message.
What specific security privileges is Promis.e looking for within ProjectWise to have this functioning?
The image below is showing: Promis.e attribute = Designed By being mapped to ProjectWise attribute = DESIGNED_BY, both of these are editable attributes within their respective programs.
The ProjectWise Attribute Mapping settings, like the other Project Options settings, are stored in the ProjectOptions.xml file in the project's folder. The message seems to be saying you do not have permission to modify this file.
Do you get the same message if you make a change to an area of Project Options besides ProjectWise Attribute Mapping?
I removed the Document > Modify permission for my user and then got a different message ("ProjectOptions.xml file may be read-only") when I clicked Apply on Project Options. So I don't know what's causing the message for you. Please see the ProjectWise permissions for promis.e and Bentley Substation integration article if you have not already.
