Customers require the ability to enforce the “Highlight Changes” setting globally so that it is enabled by default for all projects and users without requiring manual activation by each Project Manager.Currently, the toggle is available only at the project instance level under Work Plan → Settings → Highlight Changes. There is no organizational, profile-level, or systemic default that allows administrators to configure this behavior across the entire environment.Business Need / Justification: Ensures consistent behavior across all projects. Reduces missed changes in schedules and improves governance. Eliminates repetitive manual steps for PMs. Supports large organizations where enforcing standard configuration per project is operationally inefficient. Requested Enhancement: Add a global Admin-level setting that allows enabling “Highlight Changes” as the default for all new and existing projects. Optionally, allow applying the setting by: Organization Profile/User Role

Trying to share OR print the full discussion thread for a discussion within a Decision.The read-only widget to the decision seems to truncate the full Discussion thread and no matter what I try does not expose all replies to the discussion,Printing also seems to be buggy and doesn’t show all replies.Creating a report is limited as well - although is the only way I can at least get the text from all reply posts, it is not formatted in a good way for something such as Audit, for example. The behavior with the read-only link cutting off replies seems like a bug, as does the printing issue. Can anyone confirm or suggest a solution?

our custome would like AdaptiveWork to be able to provide a native system field on the Customer object that automatically counts all Projects related to that Customer.Currently, this capability exists only at the Portfolio level, and organizations must use a custom Relations Summary field if they want this count at the Customer level.The customer has a custom field called “# of Projects”, configured as a Relations Summary counting all associated Projects.This field is intended to support reporting across 150+ Customer records. However: The field has repeatedly displayed ?ERROR, requiring Support to manually recalculate the field.The customer assumed this was a system-provided field and expressed concerns about reliability.They believe counting linked Projects is core platform functionality and should not rely on a custom implementation. Requested Enhancement Create a standard AdaptiveWork system field on the Customer module that:Automatically counts the number of Projects linked to eac

We’d like to see if others are interested in the functionality we’re hoping to have.  It would be very helpful to establish preset column set views by persona to improve the user experience. This customizes the view by each key person, removes unnecessary fields that are confusing to many users, minimizes initial setup, and removes the risk of losing set-up configurations tied to system cookies.  For example, currently we have team members customize their My Overview screen as part of their initial set up by unselecting unnecessary fields and reorder columns, but it would improve user experience if admins can preset them before their first time login.  Has anybody received feedback from end users like this before?    

We’ve submitted this as an idea to Continuous Improvement, but we’re curious if anybody in the community is interested or has received similar feedback from end users. We’re hoping to make it possible to save and share multiple different grouped views.  The column sets enable us to view predefined columns, but it doesn't allow us to include attributes that are used in "Group by".  For example, there are different groupings that enable an RM to properly review and act on their allocations for different purposes. It’s been very frustrating for our RMs and product managers to have to remember the different groupings and manually adjust it every time they want to a different view within the staffing screen.  This example is about the Staffing screen, but it would be great if we can create and share custom views which preselect both columns and attributes used to group by in the other screens as well such as Plan.   

Hi All,Since upgrading the the september 2025 releace we are seeing a global degridation across most of our Job Streams - meaning its not just impacting OData & Intergrantion.My Question: Has anyone else had a similar experienced 

We’re reviewing our process for tracking project financials once a project is no longer active.  From a project manager’s perspective, how are other organizations capturing or reporting financial data (e.g., final costs, accruals, or ongoing expenses) after a project has been closed or set to inactive in Planview?

Hello Projectplace Community, one inquiry I had is whether Copilot within Projectplace (AI Chatbot) has the same sort of implementation that it does with portfolios in terms of how it manages it’s data processing (i.e sending data back to copilot post-inquiry). We’re quite strict on how our data is managed and when the copilot feature initially came to Portfolios we took it back to our CSM and they notified us that our data does not get stored in a dedicated server, it will feedback into copilot and thus we disabled that functionality. If the feature in Projectplace does the same then we will most likely be unable to make use of the functionality once again. Any and all thoughts are appreciated. 

Is it possible to Map the Blocked Flag in JIRA to the blocked field in Agile Place?? 

Hi, I am new in Project Place and I wonder if someone can explain the following…in the wbs breakdown I can see there are activities created which looks like more a “grouping” activity than the activity itself. I mean, look at the attachment. The activity 3.1 has a left icon similar to the activity 3, while the activity 3.1.1 has a different green icon (like the big majority of all others).Why exactly? If I want to create a new activity, for example, 2.1 under the activity 2, how can I add a new one but not with the green icon, but with the same activity 2 icon like in the picture?

In the Roadmaps tool, any configuration changes I’m making is no longer saving.  Has anyone experienced this?

I’m having an issue where a few projects are experiencing an issue with progression jobs changing their flags at the project level as well as the task level. After progression jobs run on Sunday night the project is changed back to Do Not Progress: Yes, when it was previously set as No. This happens only on a few projects. It also happens to a subset of tasks on these projects, but not all. The task will change back to Do Not Progress: Yes, when it was previously set as No. Has anyone been able to determine what might be causing this change to occur?

Currently, AdaptiveWork does not provide the ability to include page numbers in PDF extracts. Users exporting reports or documents in PDF format cannot reference specific pages, which affects readability and usability, especially for larger files shared with multiple stakeholders.Proposed Enhancement:Introduce an option to automatically include page numbers when generating PDF extracts. The feature could allow users to configure the page number placement (e.g., header or footer) and formatting style (e.g., “Page X of Y” or simple numbering).Business Justification:    •    Improves document readability and navigation.    •    Enhances professional presentation for exported reports.    •    Facilitates easier reference and discussion of specific pages in printed or shared documents.    •    Aligns with standard document export expectations in enterprise applications. 

When evaluating and prioritizing new product projects, it is typical to analyze profitability.  Such a common metric is calculating Net Present Value (NPV), while extension may be Break-even, IRR, etc.This functionality seems to be missing in the financial planning aspect of AdaptiveWork.  Is it possible to add in such functionality of calculating an NPV for various time periods (e.g., 10-year and 5-year NPVs_?Has anyone built their own profitability report inclusive of the time value of money based on the standard profitability fields that they can share? Thank,Ginger

Dear Community, Has anyone else noticed anything strange when it comes to allocation details? Last year, one of our users reported that their name appeared in an allocation they couldn’t have created, they had no access to the resource or the project. After some analysis, we found out that the user wasn’t even logged into the system that day!We immediately opened a case with Customer Care, but so far, despite many attempts to prove that the issue is not on our side, we still don’t have a resolution and the data has been unreliable for more than a year!We even built a dataset from the allocation table to check for discrepancies between the created_by, requested_by, and approved_by columns. It turns out that in the requested_by column, there are cases where a person without the proper profile somehow managed to create a request for an allocation. They simply don’t have the right grants or role feature to perform the action.Customer Care suggested this might be related to copying project

Hi Community, I have a question about best practices for planning and profiling requirements/assignments. PMs very often profile requirements in our projects. However, it sometimes happens that activities need to be extended. In such a situation, extending the activity by changing the Schedule Finish or directly extending the Duration causes the profiling set by the PM to be completely disrupted, as the system itself tries to adjust the data to the new end date. The PM would like it to remain as originally set and to be able to profile additional days/months manually. Is there any functionality that I am not aware of that allows this? 

Hi everyone,I am looking for guidance on the native options inside Planview for calculating: CPI (Cost Performance Index) SPI (Schedule Performance Index) We are using Earned Value management within Planview, and we already have access to: Earned Value (EV) – predefined attribute Planned Value (PV) Actual Costs to Date Before choosing an approach, I would like to understand:1. Which Planview features can be used to calculate CPI and SPI internally?For example: Calculated Attributes Subtotal Attributes Custom Fields Scripted Dialogs (accumulator-based) Any other built-in EV configuration options  2. Are EV, PV, and Actual Cost fields available for use in those features?Or are there structure/visibility restrictions that prevent them from appearing in calculated fields or scripted dialog operands? 3. If other customers have implemented CPI or SPI within Planview (not external BI tools), which approach worked best in practice? 4. Are there any limitations or prerequisites (e

Dear Community, I’m reaching out to see if anyone has come across a similar challenge. We’re using Logbook data in several Power BI dashboards now. We also manage data quality across project, resource and logbook data. For project and resource datasets, we’ve built weekly trending snapshots showing how data quality changes over the last four weeks.Where we're struggling is the Logbook. The Logbook Quality dashboard itself works fine but since we can’t build our own dataset for Logbook (different OData connection and no DB access), all quality logic had to be built directly in Power BI. That means we currently don’t have a straightforward way to capture historical quality snapshots for Logbook items.Has anyone found a way to handle historical Logbook data quality or built something similar? Even a workaround or recommended approach would be really helpful.Thanks, Michal 

Hello,It’s been a week now that when in a discussion i select a group of users or a discussion group in the “notify”, no notification and no email is sent.When i do the same by tagging the members individually, it works fine.Anybody else encountering the same issue ?I have evidence that it worked fine on my first post last week.

Hi Community,We’re trying to update rate cards per project that are based on primary user group assignments rather than the user Job Title. If we update the overall Group Rate, we won’t be able to tailor it per project, which you can do with the Rate cards assigned to each project. However, our organization has many different Job Titles that it would take a lot of manual oversite to add a new job title to each rate card for each project...however our user groups are pretty standardized.. Does anyone know how to do this or any suggestions?
