Remarks

Project, resource, task, and assignment enterprise custom field definitions use PSDataType to specify the type of data. For example, see FIELD_TYPE_ENUM for the task custom field. Enterprise custom fields can be one of the following types:

  • Cost: COST

  • Date: DATE

  • Duration: DURATION

  • Flag: YESNO

  • Number: NUMBER

  • Text: STRING

The following constants are defined in a private assembly:

  • DUR_MULTIPLIER = 10

  • COST_MULTIPLIER = 100

  • WORK_MULTIPLIER = 1000

  • UNITS_MULTIPLIER = 10000
