Graph a field not listed in the Project to Milestones wizard

Question:

I am bringing my Microsoft Project schedule into Milestones Professional. I want to graph a custom field I have in Project which is not listed on the DataGraph screens in the wizard. Is this possible?

Answer:

Yes. The best approach is to bring the field in as a column and then use a "column ValueSet" (type 3) to graph the values across the timeline.

Bring the Microsoft Project field into your Milestones schedule. See: Add a field from Microsoft Project
Set up the ValueSet (as a type 2 ValueSet.) (Tools | Set Up ValueSets) See: Create and format ValueSets
Add the ValueSet to a DataGraph. (Tools | Set Up DataGraphs) See: Create and change DataGraphs
