How do I change project manager

How do I change the end date on a project when it's past the end date?  How do I change the Manager on a project?

The project was entered and the wrong person was assigned as a Manager.  As a result, the plan was never updated.  I need to remove the Manager and assign to someone else.  When I try to add the new resource, I get "Resources cannot be added to this project because its end date is before today" message.

Hi Corina,

If you are the project manager or alternate manager, the end date is changed in the "General" tab of the Project Management console (Projects -> [Click your project] -> Manage)

If you are not the manager or alt manager, an Admin can change the manager in Admin -> Projects -> [Select your project] -> Resource Tab -> Change Manager. An admin can also change the End Date on the General tab in Admin while they are there.

I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any further questions.

The title says "how do I change project manager" which is what I wanted to know. The article shows how to change the end date, not how to change the manager. - Sarah Glatz Fri 9/15/23 10:49 AM
Hi Sarah, per Drake's answer: "If you are not the manager or alt manager, an Admin can change the manager in Admin -> Projects -> [Select your project] -> Resource Tab -> Change Manager." - Mark Sayers Fri 9/15/23 10:54 AM
