Adding Customized Project Information (Attributes)
-
5 มกราคม 2553 20:03Hi,
I'm using Project Server 2010 beta with PWA.
Could anyone help me with the following questions about customized project fields?
1. I have multiple projects, each project has its priority. Where should I store this priority information for the project? Since priority is commonly used information, I guess it should be a default field for a project. But I couldn't find it in PWA. Am I missing something here?
2. I have some other related information for each project that I need to enter, for example, Equipment, Target Customers. Does Project Server 2010 PWA allow me to create those attributes for the project?
Thanks,
Wei

5 มกราคม 2553 22:36Thanks, I can now create customized fields!
When I try to define "Priority" as the customized field name, I got the following:
The custom field could not be saved due to the following reason(s):- The custom field name is a reserved name.
Is this reserved name "Priority" being exposed to end-user? If yes, I don't need to define it, but instead using the existing one. Could you let me where I can find this "Priority" attribute in PWA.
Thanks

Hello, yes since its a reserved name please create one similar like: "Project Priority" for instance

Now I have defined "Project Priority" in Server Settings -> Enterprise Data - > Enterprise Custom Fields and Lookup Tables.
I click "Configure Columns..." in Project Center > Project Name > Open Menu. It opens up a dialog. The dialog lists all the existing columns being used in the project, but I don't see the customized field "Project Priority" in the list. Where can I locate"Project Priority" so that I can use it in the project?
Thanks,

you have to add the newly created field to the Project Center view (Server Settings -> Manage Views)- ทำเครื่องหมายเป็นคำตอบโดย Christophe FiessingerMicrosoft, Owner 6 มกราคม 2553 0:21

6 มกราคม 2553 0:38Wow, I see the customized column in the project. Thanks!
However, the value of this customized column and others are READ ONLY. How can I get into the EDIT mode to change the value of this column? BTW, I didn't do any check-in for this project I just created.
Thanks

Hope this helps...pc -
