Value of calculated custom enterprise field not showing in my work view

Answered Value of calculated custom enterprise field not showing in my work view

    I created a custom calculated field in Project Server 2010 of type flag.
    When I look at the field in Microsoft Project Proffesional it works great, but when I add the field to the my tasks view the value remains empty, even after publishing the project.

    The formula I use is: IIf([Finish] > Now(); 'Yes'; 'No')

    I want the initial view for my team members tasks to only contain their future tasks independant of thheir status.

    Hi,

    to display a task field in My Rasks view, you have to set your field to "Roll down unless manually specified".

    Does that help?

    Hi Barbara is right that you need to "Roll Down", but I'm not sure if the flag view does roll-down in this fashion.  If this is the case, then another way to do this is with a look-up table with Yes/No as the available options...
