Is anyone aware of an issue with MS Project 2016 where a custom field is not being saved?

The field is a flag one and is displayed as an image. If the value of the field is changed and the file is saved, when the file is re-opened the value has been brought back to its original value before the change. It works as expected in MS Project 2013.

    Hi Steen,

    Thank you for your message.

    I have added a video to the shared location. The issue still exists when the value is changed to "No".

    Could you advise please?

    Kind regards

    Hi Stanislava,

    We meant that during the creation of the custom field, the value should be both made as No, then saved and re-opened before changing one of the value to Yes.

    We have sent you a link to the private message to provide a video of our steps. Please let us know if this helps.

    Regards,

    Sheen

    Hi Sheen,

    Thank you for your message.

    The file has been added to the same folder in the shared location.

    Please let me know if you are able to access it.

    Kind regards

    Hi Stanislava,

    Can you please record a video for us regarding the steps you did for the workaround, so we can advise if there's some steps that are different compared to ours?

    You can send the video via our previous private message.

    Regards,

    Sheen

    Hi Sheen,

    Thank you very much for your message.

    I am afraid that the workaround is not working for me.

    Could you advise further please?

    Kind regards
