Activity Set dropdown on Project and Placement
Choose the right Activity Set based on the linked hour calculators on the Project and the Placement. F104715 | 2026-05
Introduction
From now on you can also set an Activity Set on the Project, which is copied to its Placements. The Project also clearly shows which Activity Set belongs to the hour calculator assignments linked to the Project. This makes it even easier to make the right choice.
Who is this feature relevant for?
- Customers who work with hour calculators in MSF and want to record the Activity Set assignment in MSR
- Staff who set Activity Sets on Projects and Placements
Benefits at a glance
- You see at once which Activity Sets fit the selected hour calculator assignments or the CAO of the Project.
- New Activity Sets from MSF are in the dropdown without extra set-up
- A new Placement gets the Activity Set of its Project
Feature explanation
What is new
- The Activity Set field is now also available on the Project.
- This field shows a dropdown with two tabs:
- Specific:
- The hour calculators assigned to the Project are checked.
- Then it is checked in MSF which Activity Sets are set on these hour calculators.
- These are shown in this tab, and you can see at once which hour calculator each one belongs to.
- If no Activity Sets are linked to the hour calculators in MSF, the Activity Sets set on the CAO of the Project are shown.
- If no specific Activity Set can be found, this tab is not visible.
- Other: shows all other Activity Sets set in MSF.
- You can search by description or code.
- Specific:
- The Activity Set chosen on the Project is added automatically to new related Placements.
- On the Placement, the existing Activity Set field has changed. It now shows:
- The Activity Set of the Project
- The specific Activity Sets that are also shown on the Project.
- The tab with the other Activity Sets is not shown here.
- If this field is cleared, an Activity Set can be suggested based on the Activity Set of the Project. It is marked as SUGGESTION.
Note: a change to the Activity Set on the Project does not change the Activity Set on existing Placements. Only new Placements get the Activity Set of the Project.
Synchronization to MSF
Note: You can only use the Activity Set on the Project if synchronization of this field to MSF is enabled. This is off by default, so existing values in MSF are not overwritten. Go to the MSR-MSF Interface Management to enable it.
Flow components
- Three flow components were added so you can use the functions above in flows as well:
- Get Activity Sets for Project from MSF
- Get Activity Sets for Placement from MSF
- Get All Activity Sets from MSF
Set-up
- System administrators must add the new Activity Set components to the layouts of the Project and the Placement.
- Add the new Activity Set field to the synchronization of the Project in the MSR-MSF Interface Management page.
