Assigning a Value to a Project Field (Attribute)

Project fields are data elements used to define a project and differentiate it from other projects. For example, you can create project fields for client, completion date, project description, and more. You can then assign a value to each of these fields on a project-by-project basis.

To assign a value to a project field...

1.    Open the project to which you want to assign values.

2.    Click the Attributes tab.

       The Attributes (project field) list appears in the left column of the tab, the assigned values appear in the right column.

3.    Double-click the attribute to which you want to assign a value (e.g. Completion date).

       A dialog box appears.

4.    Enter a value for the selected field.

Ø      Note: Values can be alphabetical, numeric, or a combination of both.

5.    Either click OK to save the data and close the dialog box, or Cancel to close the dialog box without saving the data.

       The information you entered for the attribute appears in the Value column.
