Creating Resource UDFs

Create resource user defined fields (UDFs) if the predefined fields do not meet your needs.

To create a resource UDF:

1. On the Navigation Menu, expand Administration and click Enterprise Data.
2. On the Enterprise Data page, expand Resources and click Resource UDFs.
3. On the Resource UDFs page:
   1. Click Add.
   2. In the User Defined Field, double-click and type a name.
   3. In the Data Type field, choose a type from the list.
   4. Click Save.

Tip:

• If you intend to use reporting software, avoid using commas when creating data other than Project names. The way that data is passed to some reporting software can cause a comma to be interpreted as a delimiter between data items.
• You can create manual UDFs quickly from any UDF detail window, by clicking Assign and then clicking Add in the Assign UDFs dialog box.
