Create proposal or activity plan with PSI

[Mike G.]

Admittedly, I'm not 100% clear on the difference between a proposal and an
activity plan. I do know that when you create a proposal via project web
access, it displays a state of "Proposed". And, when you create an Activity
Plan, the State field is blank.

If I create a project via PSI, and specify:
ProjectRow.PROJ_TYPE = (int)PSLibrary.Project.ProjectType.LightWeightProject;

It shows up with a blank State. So, how do you create a proposal (with a
state of proposed) via PSI?

Your correct about the differences between proposals and activity plans. One
has a state field for workflow and one does not.

You are creating the project right, you just need to set the state field.
The state field is just a custom field. So you should be able to set the
state field just like you set any custom field.

Thanks Chris, I didn't know to look for state as a custom field.

That worked.
