Pull project custom fields on a proof report

Hi All,

 

I had previously raised a question is we can pull the project name in the proof report? I received the below answer which worked perfectly fine:

displayname=Project Name
valuefield=documentVersion:document:project:name
valueformat=HTML

Now I need to pull another field value in the report from the project. It is a custom field. Any idea how to do that?

 

Thanks,

Nisha

Hi Nisha,

 

It's just a case of adding the field name to the value field part of the code:

 

displayname=NAME
valuefield=documentVersion:document:project:DE:CUSTOM FIELD NAME
valueformat=HTML

Simply replace the pink text with the name of your custom field (note that the field name must be pre-fixed with "DE:")  and you should find that this works.

 

Best Regards,

Rich.

    Thanks Richard, I was trying with just the name of the field and it never worked. Adding DE: in the beggingin of the field name did the magic. Thank you again 🙂

    Hi @richard_le_ ,

    Do you know how to group by this field?
