How do I get the indicators for PM, Executives, etc - showing Red, Yellow,
Green status for Projects and their status? What particular configuration
and features of Project do I need to perform to accomplish this? Thank you
again.

You can use an Enterprise Custom code field. I use the Enterprise Text Field, set a formula to calculate a value, and then set the graphic feature to show red, yellow, or green based on the calculated value. For example, the formula used the Total Slack value to determine a code value of "trouble" when Total Slack less than 0, "critical" when Total Slack is less than or equal to 5, and "okay" when Total Slack is greater than 5. In the Graphic feature of the code, I set the equation criteria to equals "trouble" - red icon, equals "critical" - yellow icon, and equals okay - green icon

Hope this info helps

Hello Samy,
You have to insert a custom field such as Number1-20 field : Insert /
Column...
Then right click the field label : choose Customize Fields...
Click the Formula button to introduce the formula you want
Click the Graphical Indicators button to introduce another formula such as:
Test : "is greater than"; Value : 100; image: Red ball

Hope this helps,
