Re: Have separate Field API Names vs Label - Workfront 29-08-2018
We would like to take this one step further, front end names should all be given a back end ID number. The ID number should then be used for API calls (and fusion calls), so that changes to the custom field front end name do not impact the call. Currently, any changes to a custom field name break any corresponding API or fusion calls.

Re: User Costs by Roles/Rates with specific time periods - Workfront 30-07-2018
Believe many of the voters here will also be interested in better forecasting reporting. I've submitted an idea to Create Assigned Hours as a reporting object. An Assigned Hours report would function just like an hours report, but would be future looking. You would then be able to run forecast reports on hours, revenues, costs and profits by week or month and the reports could be summarized for company, portfolio, group, etc. Please upvote: https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/...

Re: Idea Exchange Promotion - Workfront 26-07-2018
I've created my first idea: Create Assigned Hours as a reporting object. An Assigned Hours report would function just like an hours report, but would be future looking. You would then be able to run forecast reports on hours, revenues, costs and profits by week or month and the reports could be summarized for company, portfolio, group, etc. Believe this would benefit all users- please upvote! https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360014275094-Create-Assigned-Hours-as-a-Reporting...

Create Assigned Hours as a Reporting Object to Improve Date based Forecasting - Workfront 25-07-2018
Our leadership would like to be able to use Workfront to forecast hours, revenues, costs and profits by month. Reporting on the Assignments object does not give project owners, resource managers or leadership information about daily/weekly/monthly totals of upcoming work for users. Under People, the Teams and Scheduling tools do give daily totals for users, but the views cannot be manipulated like a report. Nor can these views give information about future revenue or cost. The solution is to cre...

Re: Workfront Job Role History Loss - Workfront 23-07-2018
I second James - please upvote this idea in the idea exchange so Workfront understands the volume of their clients facing this challenge. We're having a lot of issues with accurately calculating revenue over time for users that have received one or more roles changes. It is especially tricky when you want to "fix" a user's record if the hours have already been approved/locked and they were not allocated to the task. We cannot use billing records to solve as they do not create date based records ...

Re: Change start of week - Workfront 02-05-2018
We require timesheets and have abnormal week rules, this was a huge source of confusion during adoption and gave users an excuse to say "timesheets are too hard in workfront. the old system was better". Timesheet profile's already know the day of the week the timesheet should start on, I hope it will be simple to update the UI to match.

Re: Time-Off to auto-log hours to the Timesheet - Workfront 12-04-2018
Our ideal scenario: Time off can have unlimited types determined by the admin at the timesheet profile level (ex: Vacation, Sick, Summer Friday) Time off types can be archived if they are no longer applicable WITHOUT losing the hours from the past (ex: no longer using Summer Fridays, new time off type called Summer Sunny Days is created) Planned time off shows in resourcing, but the admin can turn on or off ability to see time off type (this protects privacy of employees taking personal days for...

Re: Overall Collapse/Expand button on Timesheet - Workfront 30-03-2018
We have users with a full list of projects and multiple tasks per project, this would be very helpful

Re: Idea Exchange Promotion - Workfront 30-03-2018
Michael, I'm glad I'm not the only seeing this as a serious issue. Being able to track user data over time (role, rate, cost, manager, company) is essential for accurate calculations and reporting. We only launched Workfront a month ago so we haven't had role changes yet, but we will have promotions in May and I'm very concerned with managing data quality once users are updated to their new roles.

Re: Ability to convert the field type to another field type - Workfront 30-03-2018
Edit: I found the area Jenna was referring to below - and have successfully started deleting unused fields from our library. Thank you Jenna! ----- Would also like to delete fields from the system (for when you create a field, then realize it already exists but with a slightly different name)
