10.6 Configuring Custom Field Names for a Project

The custom fields define additional information that you want to track for a project. The custom fields apply project-wide. Each field name must be unique in the project. The defined custom fields are available in the Workload dialog and in Advanced Search.

NOTE:The Project Manager or Project Architect can define custom field names for the project.

The custom field names are added to the Advanced Search dialog when the Global Project Selector is set to the project.

To define custom field names:

  1. In the Web Interface toolbar, select Planning.

  2. Select the Projects tab.

  3. Double-click the project to open the Edit Project dialog, then view the project details.

    You can alternatively select the project, then click Edit.

  4. Under Custom Field Names, specify a name for up to 8 custom fields in Field 1 to Field 8.

    Add field names sequentially. As you add a name, the next field becomes available.

  5. Click Save.

  6. Click Close.
