User-Defined Project Attributes

In addition to the project-level attributes that are delivered with the application, you can also define project attributes that fit the unique needs of your enterprise. For example, an automobile manufacturer can use this functionality to create a set of attributes that associate vehicle specifications with specific manufacturing projects. An architectural firm could create attributes that track the blueprints for different construction projects.

Using the Projects Super User responsibility, you can create groups of attributes and associate them with attribute contexts. The system uses attribute contexts to determine how it associates attribute groups with projects and tasks. For more information on setting up user-defined attributes, see: Setting Up User-Defined Attributes, Oracle Projects Implementation Guide.

You can access project-level attribute groups through links on the Project Setup page.

You can also arrange for user-defined attributes to display in page regions. Project-level attributes can display in page regions on the Project Home, Project Overview, and Project Status Report pages.

You can control at the template level whether the system displays user-defined attributes for projects.
