You can add fields to a view or table to customize the types of project data that Microsoft Project displays. If you are a programmer, you can also use fields in views and functions to modify Project to suit the needs of your organization.
A field contains one kind of information and is part of a table, a form view, or the timephased area of a usage view. Project has several kinds of fields:
If you want to add a field to a view, click the Format tab. In the Columns group, click Insert Column.
-
Task and task-timephased fields
Task fields show task-related information and can be displayed in task views such as the Gantt Chart, Task Sheet, and Network Diagram views.
Task-timephased fields show information for each task as distributed over its duration. These fields can be displayed in the timephased part of the Task Usage view.
-
Resource and resource-timephased fields
Resource fields show information for each resource, including summarized information about all tasks assigned to each resource. They can be displayed in resource views such as the Resource Sheet and Resource Usage views.
Resource-timephased fields show information for each resource as distributed over the duration of resource availability on the project. These fields can be displayed in the timephased portion of the Resource Usage view.
-
Assignment and assignment-timephased fields
Assignment fields show information for each assignment. They can be displayed in the sheet portion of the Task Usage and Resource Usage views and at the bottom of the Task Form and Resource Form views. You can change the assignment field that appears at the bottom of the Task Form or Resource Form view by clicking in the area, clicking the Format tab, and then clicking a command.
Assignment-timephased fields show information for each assignment as distributed over its duration. These fields can be displayed in the timephased portion of the Resource Usage and Task Usage views.
Note: Some fields are available only if you are using Project Professional.
