Allow unlimited amount of custom quarters

Currently in Setup -> Project Preferences -> Projects -> Custom Quarters, I am only able to specify 8 quarters. I would like the amount of quarters to be unlimited. Our instance has over 5 years of data, and if we do any trend reporting further back than 2 years, it shows "no value" for the quarter which is undesirable. We do have a custom calculated field for quarter, but it isn't perfect.

Yes please to unlimited OR the preferred way would be to set our custom quarters (which are the same every year), so they rollover continuously. Great news we can do 8 as a start though. Thank you

Also, please can we set the custom quarters at a global level not a project level as it then flows into resource planning, otherwise everything is out for 2 months for us.

 

Thanks

@NicholeVargas Hi Nichole! Couldn't find anyone else I know at WorkFront to tag on this - can we please raise this to the product team? This has been an idea for years and many people have commented wanting this (including me). If we have 8, I wouldn't think it's a big effort to have the ability to add more? Really messes up reporting to only have 8 quarters.

I would absolutely love to have unlimited quarters for our instance as well. It would also be nice to customize total FY options, as well as H1 and H2 options.

Hi Adobe Workfront, has there been any traction on this request in the past 7 years. This would be a great to have more quarters available. In addition, is there a way to allow GROUPS to have different custom quarters from those set at the System level?

@JesseRe1 it has been several years since this initial post and it is something that would be really useful, is this on the product teams roadmap?

Hi, everyone,

 

Thank you for commenting and voting on this idea. Currently this enhancement is not part of our 6-month roadmap due to competing priorities, but we understand the need for tracking work for more than 8 quarters. We will consider this enhancement for our longer-term roadmap and update here in case there are any changes in prioritization.

 

Thank you again,

Lilit
