Project Connector for System Center Services Manager (SCSM) available !!!

Hi all,

Great news, a new plugin is available for System Center Services Manager SCSM!

This plug in is created by Expit:

Expit has developed a plugin/connector that enables the exchange of information between project planning software (Project server 2010) and System Center Service Manager. The connector allows project server users to convert project tasks into tickets in service manager directly from project server or project professional clients that are connected to project server. Additionally, the connector also updates project tasks to reflect ticket status in service manager and mark tasks as complete once tickets are closed.
