Custom Status "Revision" is causing issues with a report

Hello, we've recently added a project status titled "Revision", however when we use this status the project doesn't appear in our Active Project Sponsor report even though I added it to the report setting filters. Would love help finding a solution so that our requestors can see their projects when this status is chosen.

Thanks, you may want to try "equates with" instead of "equals". In your setup, each status equates with a predefined status like active, planning on hold, etc. There are far fewer base statuses than custom ones so it makes your list much easier to manage.

 

That being said, As a troubleshooting method, try filtering for just "Revision" projects and see if that works. If so, add a few more at a time until it breaks. It could be that something is conflicting in all those statuses. Post your findings as it may help someone else.

 

Also, if it's listing hundreds of projects, the "revision" ones could be on a later page in your list.

Can you post a screenshot of your filters?

 

No one can see your Workfront without a login so your URL is moot.
