Validation of Enterprise Customer Fields in Project Creation Page

I want to do the validation on the Enterprise Custom Fields of PWA site for Project center. A set of custom fields have been added on the Project Creation Page.
Custom Business Validation (such as a field value should be unique or based on another field) is required for some custom fields. This validation is required on clicking Save button in Project Creation Page of Ms Project Server 2010. The validation ought
to be done on clicking "Save" button.
Any help in this regard would be apppreciated.

The link mentioned by you ToonS is not acessible.

  • Missing values of Enterprise Custom Field in Project Professional and Project Web Access

    Hi all,
    In Project Server 2010 SP2 we created a custom field called Iteration Path (without a lookup table).
    We're in an environment where Project Server task data gets synched from TFS and we've mapped the Iteration Path from TFS to the Enterprise Custom Field in Project Server.
    We've triggered synch of all synchronized work items from TFS to Project Server
    Then, in the database we can see the Iteration Path values coming across
    When I open these projects in Project Profssional, the entire column of Iteration Path is empty.
    When I open these projects in Project Web App (from Project Center), the entire column of Iteration Path is empty.
    When I open the master project which contains all these projects, no values are shown.
    Any ideas what can be wrong?
    I did already clear my cache, global.mpt, but nothing changed. We don't have this issue with other Enterprise Custom Fields that are mapped to TFS fields.
    Cheers,

    Hi Bram,
    In the 4th item, when you say "database", which one are you talking about? Project Server DB? Draft or reporting DB? 
    If the value are not showing up in Project Pro, it is no need to clean your cache, since the value are obviously not stored in the Project Server Draft DB. The issue is more likely to come from the TFS sync for this particular field. Do you have any logs
    for the sync process? If your field in anyway different from the others, containing specific characters?
    Hope this helps.

  • Delete Enterprise Custom Fields in Project Server 2010

    Hello,
    We have Project Server 2010, SP2, in SEM mode. We recently removed some legacy unused Project Level enterprize custom fields from system, and observed that, the fields are not visible via PWA System Settings, but still see them in Project Pro, Project Information
    dialog and also available as a field that I can add it to a view.
    I have already tried following:
    - Clear the roaming profile (global.mpt) and exit out of Project Pro, and reconnect to Project Server... but still see those fields.
    Any ideas, why we see it, and is there any additional steps we need to perfome to remove from Project Pro?
    Please suggest.
    Regards,

    Hello,
    They should have removed automatically. I have seen this before and carried out these steps:
    http://pwmather.wordpress.com/2012/02/22/projectserver-2010-msproject-enterprise-global-custom-fields-out-of-synch-ps2010-ps2007/
    Fully backup the system before doing this and test on a DEV / Test system first.

  • Content Search web part - Display Project Enterprise Custom Fields and Lookup Tables

    My ultimate goal is to display a rollup table of our active projects (from PWA) on another site collection using the content search web part. I can return default properties (such as the project name, author and URL) fairly easily using the same basic steps
    in the link below.
    http://en.share-gate.com/blog/roll-up-sharepoint-2013-sites-using-search
    My problem is that I want to also display information associated with each project from our PWA enterprise custom fields (such as risk, phase, etc.)
    Because these custom fields do not appear to be site columns, I'm at a bit of a loss as to how this data is searched / indexed / mapped.
    Is it possible to display PWA enterprise custom fields in a content search web part?

    Hi Jennifer,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display PWA enterprise custom fields in a Content Search web part in SharePoint 2013.
    As your active projects were from different site collection with the Content Search web part, you need to do a crawl for the content source, then create a managed property for the column in CA->Search Service Application->Search Schema. When you create
    the managed property, select Searchable, Queryable, Retrievable.  Then  map it to the crawled property based on the custom column. You can find the crawled property by searching the name of the column in crawled properties.
    More information, please refer to the link:

  • Project 2013 client does not show Project Online Enterprise Custom Fields

    I have about 20 task level custom fields in my Project Online instance. When I open a project and edit a task using Project 2013 client, only a handful appear in the Custom Fields panel.
    Question:
    How do I expose all Enterprise Custom Fields to the Task Information - Custom Fields panel in Project 2013 client?

    Quite a strange issue...
    It could be interesting to test from another machine with another user profile. Have all the fields been created from PWA/server settings? Can you try to create a brand new field from there and test again?
    Then also try to find out what is the specificity of the "end use" custom field which is displayed in the task information dialog box. Basically if 1 is working then the others should also work.
    Hope this helps,

  • Reporting on custom fields in Project 2013

    I have created custom fields in project 2013 i.e. renamed "cost 1", "text 1" etc. for the fields I require.  However when I go into reporting the fields are never there to select from.  The fields dont have formulas, a couple
    have look up tables but they are basic red/green/amber.  I just need to know how I get a custom field to appear in the right hand field list when selecting fields to report on?

    Hi MS713,
    We would need more details. Do you use Project Server or just MS Project standalone? Did you created the enterprise custom fields from PWA/server settings? Did you populate some values for some projects and publish the projects? What type of reports are
    you talking about? SSRS, OLAP Cube, Excel? Is it that you cannot see the custom fields or you see them but with no values?
    Hope this helps,

    //Custom field of a task
    wbs = app.ActiveCell.Task.Text1;

    I am trying to get the red marked field from the screenshot
    Thx for your help in advance

  • How to find Project Level Text Custom Fields in Project Server 2010 databases?

    Hello,
    We are using Project Server 2010 SP2 in SEM Mode. We are planning to use Project Level Local Custom fields and we want to pull them in reports using SSRS, so I am wondering which table these "Local" (non enterprise) custom fields are stored in

  • Rename enterprise custom fields

    I use Project online 2013.
    I'd like to rename the enterprise custom fields "Project Category" and "Project Sub Category" to something shorter. The reason is that I group my projects by Project Department, Project Category and Project Sub Category and the names
    are too long.
    Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    There is no issue in renaming an enterprise custom field since it will keep its GUID. Just go to the server settings, enterprise custom fields, select the field to edit it and rename it.
    The limitation I can see is if you have reports with SQL queries which point to the field name and not GUID. In this case you'll need to adjust your SQL queries.
    Hope this helps,

  • How to use formula in enterprise custom field "Work" or "Cost"

    Hi there,I am using MS Project 2010 and I am looking for a way to customize enterprise
    custom field such as "Work" and "Cost" field where I was to use a formula (eg: Number1+Number2).
    I came to know I need to use VBA to perform that task.Could anyone please suggest if there
    is any way I could do that.I will really really appreciate your advice.Thanks in advance.

    robeenclarke,
    On the surface it might appear that it would be easy to look at the Start and/or Finish fields of a manual task and see that it is blank, but in reality it isn't so easy. The blank field you see is a view presentation only. Internally Project does in fact
    have a default date in those "blank" fields and that's the date you see when you query the date using VBA. If the Start field of a manual task is blank, then internally both the start and finish dates of that task take on the Project Start Date.
    If the Start field of a manual task has a date but the Finish field is blank, then internally the finish date is the same as the start date. And to make it even more interesting, the internal finish date of a manual task will track with the duration and/or
    the Work field.
    So the bottom line of this is, "what you see is NOT what you get". Certainly some assumptions could be made based on the above and those assumptions could be integrated into a macro to populate the "blank" Finish field but I wouldn't
    say it would be foolproof. If you have some very defined characteristics for those tasks with a blank finish date (i.e. also no start date, and/or no duration, and/or no work), and those characteristics are consistent throughout your whole file, then a simple
    macro could be developed.
    With respect to the "If Not t is Nothing Then" statement. The purpose of that statement is to avoid a runtime error is the file has blank task lines. Some users like to visually separate parts of their plan by inserting blank task lines between
    major sections, so a good practice when writing Project macros is to always include that statement in the loop.
    Update: However, after writing all the above verbiage, I believe I may have a workaround. As it turns out, even though you can't directly query the Start and/or Finish field of a manual task, you can transfer that blank string to a text field and then query
    that text field, so you can get there from here with an extra step.
    Try this process. First customize the Text3 field with the following formula:
    Text3 = [finish]
    Now run this macro:
    Sub SetFinishDate()
    Dim t As Task
    For Each t In ActiveProject.Tasks
        If Not t Is Nothing Then
            If t.Summary = False And t.Manual = True And t.Text3 = "" Then
            t.Finish = t.Date1
            End If
        End If
    Next t
    End Sub

  • Custome Fields in project

    Hi,
    In our Project Server config 2003 . We are using MSP_TEXT_FIELDS with TEXT_FIELD_ID = '188744741' to capture project ID. Ideally this table should have single entry for each project. For couple of projects the entry is more than one.
    I understand that this is because of Custom Field in Project , but I am unable to find out those field as this is not required.
    Can anyone help with database query to fetch custom fields.
    Thanks in advance.

    Please check the your custom fields are added in Coding Block or not. Then these field must appear in the Addition Assignment section of the field status group.

  • Custom fields for ROS initial page in BSP application

    Hi,
    We want to add some more customer fields in ROS initial page, for example TIN number. We have added a field to ZZTIN in the include CI_CUF_REQ_FIELDS of structure ROS_CUF_REQ_FIELDS and also implemented BAdI ROS_REQ_CUF. After adding custom codes in BSP application ROS_SELF_REG under page u201Caddress.htmu201D we are able to see this field in the initial registration page.
    Now the question is WE ARE UNABLE TO KNOW HOW TO STORE THE VALUE ENTERED HERE. We are facing below issues.
    (1)     If we try to input  ZZTIN to structure u201Cgs_address u201C it is asking us to add custom fields here also.
    (2)      But when we tried to append ZZTIN to structure BAPIBUS1006_ADDRESS,  it is not allowing to activate it.
    (3)     We have also appended ZZTIN to ADRC table. How can we input to ADRC table from here?

  • How to define a unique project level custom field in project server 2010?

    Hi every one;
    is it possible to define a unique project level custom field?
    our client wants to have a unique custom field( project code) which doesn't allow users to save and publish projects with the same value.
    for example if user A define a project and set "project code = 1" if user B define another project and wants to save "project code =1" for it, the server doesn't allow him to save this value and he has to change value for example to 2
    thanks for any help

    First of all you need to have Project server development environment also for coding visual studio hands on is required.
    To start with PSI (Project Server interface)you need to have Development Environment of Project Server 2010.

  • ISE 1.3 Guest API - using custom fields for guest creation?

    I am currently working with the new ISE 1.3 guest api, i have most everything working, i can create guests fine, with the basic information entered into the guest account like first name, last name, company, email, phone and so on. Now i need some more fields to enter other information in for that guest, and i have created 5 extra custom fields called option1-option5, and enabled them for the "Known Guests" page on my sponsor portal. I can however not figure out how they should be adressed in the xml input sent in the api request...anyone tried this ?
    Regards
    Jan

    Hi Johan,
    Sure i can lead on the way, the stuff i am doing is part of a complete system i build and sell, that integrates with ISE to give customers the ability to create guest accounts using a number of different social media facebook, google and so on, to self-provision accounts for guest acces (and many other things :-)
    I mainly use PHP for this, and for simplicity you can use a curl command line executed by any scripting you prefer, or use any curl library you might have available to you.
    So, you need an ise sponsor account that has the "api usage flag" allowed in the sponsor group it is a member of. Then you need to know a few things about the ise setup, that needs to be sent with your request to ise, to allow the creation of a guest account.
    If you need some code examples, send me a pm and we can figure something out
