Lossing the custom fields after approving task

[Vadim Malyshev]

Hello,

In Project Web Access 2007 an user enter new task for him and fill
enterprise custom field (test) but after approve this task by the project
manager, this custom field comes empty and can't be viewed in Project
Professional client or Project Web Access.

How to fix it?

Vadim, sounds like it is a caching issue. You should make sure that you have
SP1 installed and also, if possible, the Project Server infrastructure update
Hope this helps

PSP 1 installed.

It is strange under one user I see this custom field in my task view, but I
don't see it in TaskList in Project Center.

It is more interesting issue:
1. When this field fill developer at task create - it places in table
MSP_ASSN_CUSTOM_FIELDS (Custom field of Assignment), but when this field fill
or view project manager this field work with table
MSP_TASK_CUSTOM_FIELD_VALUES (Custom field of Task). Very strange...

It is planned behaviour. I solved it by a database trigger to synchronize the
tables.
