Description -
Add a dropdown field on the report configuration page that show what the report type currently is for the one being built and allow the different report types to be switched while building the report in the event that a project report actually needs to be a task report. This would keep the user on the page without having to go back to start a new report and enter in the report title again. This could also help limit the number of unused and/or unfinished reports in a customer's Workfront instance.
Why is this feature important to you -
Sometimes users select the wrong report type when starting to build new reports either by accident or by finding out that what they thought should be a project report should actually be a task report. This brings the need to close the report, go back to the where they can select a report type, and pick (hopefully) the correct one. I sometimes assist people on calls as they try to build out reports, and often times the root of the problem with the report not working or them not finding the fields they want to filter from comes down to them using a project report when they really need a task report. They get annoyed that they can't make a quick switch to a new report type without having to back out of the building the report.
How would you like the feature to work -
Feature a dropdown field on the report configuration page like the one when users start building reports that list the various reports types (project, task, issue, etc.) in the event that they need to change the report type while building because they find out that the current selection won't work for their needs. It's also an added visual so users can see what the report type is at all times. See attached image for an example. If not there, then may the dropdown could live within the Report Settings.
Current Behaviour -
Users have to back out of building the current report, click New Report, and select another option.
