PDP - Mandatory Custom Fields Issue

Hello everyone,

we have an issue in Project Server 2019, we created custom fields as mandatory and added it to a PDP.

If we try to edit the project information from PDP, it saves the project without validate or fire an error that one of the mandatory fields is empty.

if we saved through Micrsoft Project if fires an error normally, also the same case if the user tries to submit workflow stating that mandatory fields is empty.

 

Thanks & Regards

Ahmed Amin

    Hello Ahmed,

    Based on the issue details described by you, I believe few Project level custom fields as mandatory are created in PWA site of Project Server 2019. And the same are added into PDP page of 'Project information".

    Mandatory fields is empty error message pop-up during project creation in PWA site and also while saving project through MS Project desktop. Hope that's the issue you are refering?

    Could you please provide input on the newly created custom fields as mandatory.

    Is it not required during new project creation (via pwa)?

    Only once the project is created, the manadatory fields should be allowed to edit by users?

    I can help you, if you answer above query on the usage of project creation.

    Thanks!

    Regards,

    Ratan Pushp
