How to know who is current time approver (Project time, StandardTaskTime, RequestTime) for any resources through DB table/view.

How can admin user know, who is current project time approver, standard task time approver, request time approver as per project or standard task allocation to user to submit their time sheet.There are multiple setting including delegation in changepoint throgh, time sheet aprpover can be defined. But my question is that, if any user ask where is my time sheet is pending with, then admin user must have some DB table/view, so that query can be answered immediately rather than checking which seeting has been applied for that user.Also, My request to product team, take it as an enhancement, time sheet approval pending with “column” must be included in all core tables: Time, StandardTaskTime, RequestTime.Meanwhile, if there are any wayaround please let me know.

Time Off - Standard Activities

We have an issue when putting time off for individuals - Lets say two weeks in July.  Any assignment they are assigned doesn’t respect this time off. If just doubles the hours.  If they are mark as already having 100 utilization as being off, why does the system just add 40 hours to this any time the task is adjust or if they are assigned something new.  As people schedule for vacations it just puts them as over everywhere in the system.  Any thoughts on how to make this easier.

How to resolve grayed out records in transfer module.

while transfer the records/entity from one resource to another resource, we found some records are in grayed out and unable to transfer that records. but there is no “notification” or “help” is avaialbe to know the reason behind this, why these records are not able to transfer. For example: transfer all those opportuntiy where user “A” is salesrep to user “B”. but while searching that records from resource “A” to To Resource “B”, multiple records comes with gray out and unable to transfer. As a product enhancement, all relevant features/right must be auto grant/revoke while using transfer module or there must be clear message for not able to transfer records. so that admin/user can work out on that part and transfer the records. Also we found that, while using transfer module, there is no history is being maintained on UI level, while history is enabled for “sales representative” UDF field.

Planview Timesheet Warning for May 30th – Expected 10 Hours Instead of 8

We ran into an odd issue with Planview on Monday, May 30th, which was the start of our workweek (we run Monday–Sunday). When submitting timesheets, the system flagged a warning expecting 10 hours to be reported for that day, even though everything seems to indicate it should be 8 hours.Here’s what I’ve checked so far:The calendar setup looks correct. Timesheet hours per week are set to 40 hours. Planned effort for that day was 8 hours.I can’t figure out where the 10-hour expectation is coming from. Has anyone else encountered this or have ideas on what might be causing it?

What is your favorite practice, or a common practice you use for improving Flow/delivery?

My favorite is simply daily “focus”. Swarming as a team on the highest priority item. I think it is because I find a lot of joy in working together to solve challenges on a high performing team. There is clarity on what is important, a shared objective. It is much more fulfilling to me then starting a lot of work and feeling frantic, not being able to complete it, seeing the work age gives me some stress. Do you have a favorite improvement practice, whether daily, each sprint, ad-hoc, quarterly or otherwise? I would love to hear!

Managing Milestone Roadmap Options?

Aside from the action menu ‘Roadmap Visibility’, is there any way to see how Milestones are set for display in roadmaps within a grid view like a normal field? Or to see how multiple milestones are set without having to actually launch a roadmap to see it.  By needing to make 2+ clicks just to see the option for each individual milestone (when not inside of a roadmap) is mind numbing.  Where is the setting stored and can it be exposed / managed via a field? Hoping there’s a better way… or maybe there will soon be a better way?

Logbook Issuses - What Projects / Strategies are they associated with ???

We are having to pull the implementation of logbook back because users are complaining they are not tell what projects logs are associated.  We would have to add a field and manually type this in.  In the past the CRIs always list the name of the project they were associated with.  We can do Items with in a project but do to standard templates every project can have something with the same name. And pull anything by Portfolio is not doable. has anyone found any work arounds for these. Users love the idea of logbook but these are show stoppers.  .

I need to delete and re-add a team to an existing hub integration

I have a Hub Integration set up between AgilePlace and ADO and need to ‘restart’ the sync with a team I used as a POC for testing.  I hit some speedbumps with the POC team and now that the integration is complete, I need to remove & restart the integration for the POC backlog. I have tried removing the Board in AP and the Backlog in ADO, saving and then re-adding everything without any success.  Any suggestions on how I can restart the sync over to ADO?

Time Tracking in AgilePlace?

We’ve got a customer who would like to have their AgilePlace users track time (actual effort) on cards. Are there any creative solutions for this? I know we can set up a custom numeric field and just have the users manually add their hours to any value already there. For instance, if three hours have already been logged on a card, and I work two more hours on that task, I could update the custom field’s value from “3” to “5”. But this seems like it would be prone to human error. Has anyone devised a better solution to tracking actual effort on cards?

How to capture Portfolio Level stand alone risks

Hi I’m interested in how users of the legacy CRI functionality are capturing their portfolio level risks, that are not connected to programmes or projects? We have a requirement to capture Portfolio level risks, which could be stand alone risks to the portfolio, and escalated risks from programmes and projects. Currently we're only using the legacy CRI functionality and keep portfolio level risks in an excel outside of Planview, which means that we need to manually collate the full portfolio risks.We’ve considered having a project entity that represents the portfolio, to allow us to capture risks but this doesn’t feel like a good long term solution. Has anyone else achieved this in Planview Portfolios? Many thanks
