Remarks

Project, resource, task, and assignment enterprise custom field definitions use PSDataType to specify the type of data. For example, see FIELD_TYPE_ENUM for the task custom field. Enterprise custom fields can be one of the following types:

• Cost: COST
• Date: DATE
• Duration: DURATION
• Flag: YESNO
• Number: NUMBER
• Text: STRING

The following constants are defined in a private assembly:

• DUR_MULTIPLIER = 10
• COST_MULTIPLIER = 100
• WORK_MULTIPLIER = 1000
• UNITS_MULTIPLIER = 10000
