Budgeted Hours to pull into reports

I heard that the Budgeted Hours field is a legacy reporting field that no longer pulls in data. So, while you can pull in the budgeted labor cost, you cannot see the total budgeted hours per project. We should reinstate this reporting field so we can view in reports and dashboards. A good example would be a visual bar chart to see Budgeted Hours vs Actual Hours and be able to view when projects are running hot in a different view rather than the resource planner view.

Completely agree with this. What was the logic in deprecating Budgeted Hours? As a very busy agency we want to be able to set the number of hours we want a user to work on each client per month and then report on the Budgeted vs Actual whilst also viewing a live dashboard. None of this can be achieved right now. So I'm having to come up with really challenging alternatives for was and should be a very simple solution. I don't know who's making the product decisions in Workfront HQ but they need to start listening and understanding what clients want, not just switching stuff for no reason! Please reinstate Budgeted Hours into reports.
