... available, and 2-way synchronizable, on SharePoint!
TeamDirection works with SharePoint workspaces and Task lists to bring you a collaborative project management solution for a team. In addition to the default fields availble in a basic SharePoint Task list, IntelliGantt offers you the ability to pick and choose among 70 customizable fields-- making it possible to add your real-world tracking needs for your project. Best of all, you can even change the behavior behind how these fields are synchronized: a one-way publish or a two-way synchronization, field by field.
IntelliGantt is designed to adapt to your project management needs. The following pages give you a helpful guide how you might choose to use IntelliGantt Plus or the IntelliGantt Add In for Microsoft Project to run projects. IntelliGantt uses the same SharePoint web service integration as Microsoft Office applications like Word or Excel, only we focus on tasks.

These custom attributes can be active or inactive and one-way or two-way synchronizable.
