Local custom fields an enterprise resources

[Neil A]

Hi,

I have a project with enterprise resources, and I have defined some local
(i.e. non-enterprise) custom fields.

For local resources, I can enter values for these fields, as you'd expect.
But for the enterprise resources, I can't - the fields are read-only. I can
enter values for enterprise custom fields, I can change rates, working times,
etc. This causes a message stating that changes to the ent resources will be
lost, which is ok.

Can anyone tell me why I can't change local custom fields? I don't want to
define these as enterprise fields, as they are specific to this project.

Thanks

Thanks for the explanation Jack.

Does cause a problem for me - I wanted to use these to do some filtering
etc. within MSP, as I used to in 2003. Guess I'll have to find another way.

Thanks again.
