Conflicts in user assignments can occur when importing a SharePoint task list. When an application such as Project Web App calls the SharePoint GetListItems method, the return value is XML data for the list items and assignments. The assignment data includes a SharePoint index (the ows_ prefix on field names) and a display name for SharePoint users, but does not show the user's domain or whether the user is a Windows user.
CreateOperationsWorkFromWssList has no indication of where the list data came from. When you create a project from a SharePoint list, all interaction with the SharePoint server is done by the client. For information about the kinds of possible assignment conflicts, see "Limitations for Using SharePoint Data" in SharePoint Infrastructure for Project Server.

CreateOperationsWorkFromWssList returns a ProjectExceededLWPTaskLimit error if more than 100 tasks are created. A list item produces a task for each assigned resource. |
A sample priorityMappingsXML parameter using the Project Server default values is as follows:
<PriorityMappings>
<Map fieldValue=\"(1) High\" mappedValue=\"600\"/>
<Map fieldValue=\"(2) Normal\" mappedValue=\"500\"/>
<Map fieldValue=\"(1) Low\" mappedValue=\"400\"/>
</PriorityMappings>
