OK. See if I get what you're saying Sue. You are describing a report of reports, yes? If so, can that type of report reveal what dashboard(s) a report appears on? If not, please elaborate more on how to label sections of a Dashboard. Thanks!

Hi Sue. Thanks for describing your dashboard arrangements and giving me some ideas. We are not ready to disable report creation for the masses (though I am starting to troubleshoot some data usage misunderstandings). Inside your PMO dashboard, do you label the section for core report, as "Core Rep...

Lucas Eric, just having a general "google-like" where used would be fantastic! Just pointing a google appliance at the database would suffice. Early on as the sole implementer of a patient registation/clinical documentation system, the vendor provided a "where used' utility that I used extensively t...

As a 19-month-old Workfront client,our focus has been to understand the IS resource capacity to address the work needs. To get there, our simple project management standards have f...

Chiming, albeit a bit late. Not pleased with this turn. When we can't get users to use Workfront, we are in trouble. Eliminating the check out/in feature is just another adoption hurdle for us to overcome.

Anyone with appropriate permissions to the project is free to add Issues. It's up to the PM to triage and manage them. As for deliverable-type tasks, that's the job of whoever creates/manages the WBS, usually the PM. For requirement-type issues, the PM would want to keep an especially watchful e...

In our non-Agile world... We are trying to get our PMs to name their deliverables as tasks , under which they build the WBS for each deliverable - normal PM activity. Then, they would record requirements for each deliverable as issues on each deliverable task - "abnormal" PM activity. That "en...

Once an Issue (Request) is converted to a project, the Request submitter no longer sees the Issue Due as Planned Completion, and sees instead the Planned Completion of the project, assuming the submitter was given access to the project when converted.
