PS7 - Custom Resource Field in PWA Project Center View

[CQ]

I have a custom field in my Resource information. I want to see that field
in a view in PWA Project Center - which would require it to be at Project
level. Different resources will have a different values and so I will have
to somehow summarize all of the custom fields. So, the question is:
How do I get a custom Resource Field to show up in the Project Center View?
Thanks.

No matter what you do, you cannot get a custom enterprise Resource field to
show up in a Project Center view, as these views are available only to
standard and custom enterprise Project fields. The only way to address this
issue would be to write some kind of custom software routine that would
somehow calculate a cumulative resource value from the custom enterprise
Resource field and then to plug this value into the custom enterprise
Project field.

But that's a long short, assuming you can actually figure out how to
calculate the cumulative Resource field value. And if that is the route you
want to pursue, you should post this question in the
microsoft.public.project.developer newsgroup and let our developer friends
assist you. Hope this helps.
