MSDN Webcast: Real-World Solutions: Filter Resource and Project data based on Custom Fields |
300 |
On Demand |
You are creating a custom Windows application for a client that extracts and displays Project and Resource information. Because the PSI provides no way to filter these entities prior to retrieval from the PSI, you must retrieve all of the projects or resources in order to filter them by Custom Field value. Because this client has some international users on slow WAN links, you must minimize the payload sent to the user by the PSI call. |
