public class UDFType extends com.primavera.integration.client.bo.base.UDFTypeBase

User-defined fields (UDFs) enable users to add custom fields and values to the project database. For example, additional activity data, such as delivery dates and purchase order numbers, can be tracked. Business objects that support UDFs are Activity, ActivityExpense, ActivityStep, ActivityStepTemplateItem, Document, EPS, Project, ProjectIssue, ProjectRisk, Resource, ResourceAssignment, and WBS. Note that UDFs with a data type of Code may only be assigned to ProjectIssues.

The assignment of a UDF to a particular business object is represented by the UDFValue business object.
