Workfront Calculated fieds

Hi,

I have created a calculated column in an Adobe Workfront report using text mode, and the column displays correct numeric values (0/1) in the report grid. However, this column does not appear in the “Values” dropdown when configuring a chart for the same report.

What I have done

  • Report Type: Project / Task Report

  • Created a calculated column using text mode:

  • The column correctly shows:

    • 1 for on-time

    • 0 for late

  • Attempted to use this column in:

    • Pie / Column / Gauge charts

    • Different “Summarized by” options (Average, Sum, Count)

Issue

  • The calculated column does not appear in the Chart → Values dropdown.

  • Native numeric fields and custom number fields do appear correctly.

Questions

  1. Are calculated columns (text-mode columns) supported as chart values in Workfront?

  2. Is there a known limitation that prevents calculated columns from being used in charts?

  3. Is creating a custom calculated field on the object the only supported way to chart this data?
