Enterprise Custom Field populated in PWA. Data is not populated in Desktop

[David_Howe]

I have created a resource Enterprise Custom Field called "Role".  The new field shows up on the "Edit Resource" page in PWA.  I populate the field with a value (it is a text lookup type using the "Role" lookup table).  When I open the resource in Project Desktop, the field is there, but the value I entered in PWA is not there.  It is just empty.  If I update the value in the Desktop, it stays.  Why is the value not showing up in the desktop when I populate through PWA?

Hello @David_Howe ,

If you edit / update in PWA with MS Project desktop closed. Then launch MS Project Desktop, is the data then correct in MS Project Desktop?

Yes, Paul. Updating in PWA with desktop closed then opening after update, the data is there. Thanks so much for your help!
