Hello. Looking for advice on creating an executive level capacity report for our creative teams. We have different hour availabilities within the same role. For example design managers we only book for 4.5 hours of daily work, while regular employees can be booked for 6.5 hours. We also have part-ti...

Our leadership team likes to see our project managers show up on the resource planner for a project allocating their planned time allocation across the entirety of the project. Currently, they add monthly tasks to the project and update them regularly. I'm wondering if anyone has any better ideas o...

We have recently started using the Resource Planner and have noticed that when a worker assigns themselves to a task, the Job Role is removed and then the task no longer appears in the Resource Planner. Additionally, we are seeing that Planned Hours are being cut in half in the Planner. If 4 hours a...

If I set the Cost Type of a task to be Role Hourly but the Job Role has a blank for the Cost/Hr, does Workfront calculate the task's actual cost based on the Cost Per Hour of the user who logged hours, or does it take the cost to be $0? More broadly, how does the user's Cost Per Hour interact with t...

Hello Workfront Community, I am a new Workfront Admin and I am trying to create a report that will take a persons total planned hours and subtract it from their available hours to create a very high level capacity metric.

Hello probably something basic for many of you :) I cannot seem to combine two things in grouping on the project level:I would like to group tasks by name (it's a custom field and easily can be created as grouping) and display a SUM of Planned Hours for each person in the grouping line Have a piece ...

Hello Community, Here is the challenge I need your help with. Just imagine a task view, for instance the Workfront Standard built-in task view. I'd like to customize it so I'd be able to enter Planned Hours either as Hours or as % Allocation. Please consider the attached screenshot. For a given Dur...

We are trying to get a better view regarding how many planned hours each project will take and the remaining hours, what the roles on each project are and the # of hours each role has planned on the project. We have the following: A resource management dashboard that has reports based on teams and t...
