Project Online/Server Custom field with People Picker

  • Article

Requirement

One of my customers recently came up with a requirement, where my customer wanted to get the People Picker Option while working with the Project Entity custom field using Project Online.

Based on my experience, it required a great amount of effort in order to customize the custom field to achieve this requirement. In addition, my customers have always configured it in Project Server on-premises product and not in Project Online application.

After doing a lot of research to achieve this requirement to configure People Picker for the Project Entity Custom Field, I learned that it can be done fairly easily using Project Details Pages and using a small Java Script.

Thanks to Laksh for sharing this information.
