After a presentation by Doug I got convinced that he has the perfect solution available… basically, it's now just a matter of the business case to justify the extra spent.

Could you give us some more details on what you want to analyze? Do you need the CONTAINS function or could you also use EQUAL? In general, multiple items can work for some cases:

Hi Amanda, any chance to predefine sets of items? In that case you could use custom prompts and the OR function: The user can then use the dropdown and your predefined options are executed in the background:

Let's hope for many votes!

I always got the statement from Workfront, that the hours are all in the beginning and are only distributed when the resource planner loads. Consequently, we couldn't find a way to have the information used in a report. The resource planner is probably helpful in some environments, especially when t...

It's a constant fight to cut the tasks in pieces which limits project management usability.Doug, let's connect - I'd love to jointly find a better solution.

Unfortunately, you are absolutely right :-( All information I got from Workfront indicates that only the native planner view allows to cut down the tasks. I'd love to find a way here, as the planner doesn't fit our needs. Doug's solution is excellent, albeit expensive.

The resource planner calculates the distribution of the hours over time. Unfortunately, the functionality cannot be used in normal reports as far as I know. The Excel workaround is fine, but it undermines the transformation into real time data usage instead of number crunching in Excel.

Unfortunately, Workfront puts all hours to the beginning of a task. That’s why Doug proposed to use it only for short tasks. As workaround, we asked our users to split tasks when they exceed a month to be able to get monthly reports.

Does anyone have some more information about the Assigment Report? I don't find much information about it and don't manage to bring months/weeks to the x-axis.
