PWA Views - entering info

L

Lynn D

I created a new view for PWA (Admin --> Manage Views). I added several custom
fields (which have been previously defined) to this view. I wanted users to
be able to use this view to edit/add info to these fields. However, when the
user chooses this view, selects a project and chooses the edit option not all
the custom fields that I selected for this layout are available to edit. Only
4 out of the 6 are displayed (the user is allowed to edit these 4 fields).
Why won't the other 2 fields display in the edit option?
Am I missing something at the field level that won't allow this? The fields
do diplay across when I am in this view looking at all the projects, just not
in the edit view (this happens across all permissions levels - I do not see
these fields in the edit mode either and I have admin privs).
Thanks,
Lynnd

Lynn D --

When users select a project from the Project Center page and click the Edit
button, they will see only the following types of fields and outline codes:

1. Custom enterprise Project fields that do NOT contain a formula or a
value list
2. Enterprise Project outline codes
3. The Owner field (only for those with Administrator permissions)

If a custom enterprise Project field contains a value list, users must edit
that field in the actual Microsoft Project plan by clicking Project -
Project Information. Hope this helps.
