public void CreateCustomFields2(
    CustomFieldDataSet cfds,
    bool validateOnly,
    bool autoCheckIn
)

Parameters

• cfds
  Type: [CustomFields Web service].CustomFieldDataSet
  The CustomFieldDataSet contains the custom field definitions.

• validateOnly
  Type: System.Boolean
  If true, validate the CustomFieldDataSet without creating the custom fields.

• autoCheckIn
  Type: System.Boolean
  If true, check in the custom fields after they are created.

Remarks

New method in Project Server 2010.

Formulas in the CustomFieldDataSet that are used to calculate custom fields or graphical indicators can be written in the locale format that is specified in the Regional and Language Options control panel of the computer running Project Server. The CreateCustomFields2 method saves the formulas in a language-independent format. By comparison, the CreateCustomFields method saves formulas without regard to the locale format.

Project Server Permissions

If the user did not check out the custom fields, also requires administrative permissions to force check in.
