Proposed Workflow Project Server 2010

    Hello. I did a workflow to PS2010 using Visual Studio 2010.

    I have a custom field named "HasAnalysisFinancial". Your type is "Flag(yes, no)".

    In my workflow I used a component named "ReadProjectProperty". I set it to my custom field(HasAnalysisFinancial) and when i need to know the value its come null or empty! Anyone know how can I do to get the value?

    Sorry for my English...

    Try to set the Default value (Y/N) & see if you get the values while reading project property. I remeber that I had issue while Readprojectentities method in solution which doesn't hsow the Task level custom fields value though I used the all type of enums as defined (1= project, 4= tasks...etc).
    Also, It will be great, if you can put the detailed steps,

    Any luck ?? 'Cos am not even able to read basic project properties (like project name) and getsecuritygroupmembers list. All comes up as null when I debug. Is there any special rights to check on the project Web App for the user?? I am using System Admin account for everything (create project, workflow, ..)

    Thanks

    I know for a fact that Project Server Workflow does not like Flag type fields.  I know for sure that you cannot set a Flag field to be workflow controlled for starters.  I don't know if that extends to the workflow not being able to read the values of a Flag field.

    Other than that, make sure you bind your field correctly.  Don't use ellipses to set the property, rather doucle-click a yellow "Bind" icon and set the values from the pop-up window that comes up.

    EDIT: mahaflame's issue was solved by binding values properly.  Check if that does it for you.
