Integration using user defined fields on the project screen

We are trying to populate 2 fields that are on the attributes tab and on the user defined fields tab on the projects screen.  I have been able to populate the attributes tab and thought that would auto populate the user defined fields tab.  I was wrong.  

I have two questions.

How can I find the user defined fields to write an integration to populate the field?  I haven’t been able to find them on any screen.  When I populated the attributes, it did the attributes field, but not the user defined fields.

Can a user defined field auto populate an attribute?  I understand that Acumatica is moving away from attributes in the future.

hi @mcoman ,

Can you refer the below link that provides an idea how user defined values are stored in the DB.  User defined attributed are prefixed with “Attribute” when stored in the DB on a separate table.

So can you try inserting row respect to  project user defined attribute table. 

 

Hope this gives you some idea. Feel free to ask more information on this.
