Using MSPS 2007 - 'My Assignments' view in My Tasks/My Work

[Tim Mccoy]

I am using MSPS 2007. I created an Enterprise Custom field; the entity is
Task and the type is Number.

I opened a project scheulde that is on the server using the thick client,
inserted the new Enterprise Custom field into the Gantt, populated the field,
saved, and published.

I added the Enterprise Custom field to the My Tasks/My Work - 'My
Assignments' view in PWA.

I go into the 'My Assignments' view and the column is there but there is not
data. Why can I not see the data? I am trying to add a custom column to the
'My Assignments' view and see the data.

I have created and used Enterprise Custom fields before in other views and
they work fine.

Thank you.

Tim --

When you created the custom field, did you select the "Roll down" option in
the Calculation for Assignment Rows section of the PWA page? You need to do
this to see the information in assignment fields, which is what you see in
the My Tasks page and Assignment Details page in PWA. Let us know.

I did not select the "Roll down" button. It worked. Thank you!

This is a common oversight, so you are in very good company. You are more
than welcome for the help, my friend!
