When you export from Omniplan to XML for MS Project. Your resources schema is missing a field which causes MS Project to make all of your resources be 'material' instead of 'work.' If you add the field in, the resources and their allocation translates no problem.
The field is <Type>1</Type>
So right now Omniplan is exporting this:
<Resource>
<UID>5</UID>
<ID>5</ID>
<Name>CD</Name>
<IsNull>0</IsNull>
When it needs to be exporting this:
<Resource>
<UID>5</UID>
<ID>5</ID>
<Name>CD</Name>
<Type>1</Type>
<IsNull>0</IsNull>
The work around for now is to hand edit the XML file after you export it to add this line. But it would be nice if you guys could release a patch.
Please.
