Hi everybody! Is there any trick to update custom field in portfolio with the same custom field in project (for example the last written at project level). Thanks a lot ---

Hi, I am not sure I understand. A project will contain fields applying to task. And a project can have fields at the project level if they are added to portfolios. Can you clarify which fields you are talking about? Thanks ---

Hi Bastien Just to ensure I understand this correctly, the roll up custom field in the project portfolio will add up all cost fields in the projects tasks? As long as the cost field is set to global. So if I have three tasks in a project each with a cost field of $500, the roll up custom field in the portfolio should show $1500? Thank you Alex ---
