Define Project Advanced Properties

Use the Advanced tab in the Project Properties dialog box to define a project's advanced management information. The Advanced tab provides a central location from which you can set or change project-related values. All project attributes display on this tab.

This tab displays a Fields grid that contains two columns: The Field column displays a list of all the advanced properties you can specify, and the Value column displays cells, where you can enter or select values for the field.

The field values you can enter depend on the field you have selected. You can:

• Select displayed check boxes.
• Enter numeric values, currency, or dates.
• Enter words or phrases.
• Choose options from drop-down lists.

You can manually edit the project % Complete value provided you have set the percent complete calculation method (on the Description tab of the Project Properties dialog box) to Manual. Add the % Complete field to a view to edit the value from a view.

Note: The fields that are available for editing are dependent on your access rights. If a field is not available for selection or editing, it is disabled (by default).
