IsMemberofBusinessUnit

In the Formula Options for a workflow, “IsMemberofBusinessUnit” appears in the list of available functions. I cannot find any documentation on this. It sounds as tough it coulb be very useful.I’d be grateful if anyone can point me to documentation about this function, or anything about how to set up Business Units and to add users/resources to a Business Unit? ThanksJulian

Creating a point in time snapshot of Project Assessment in Portfolios

Wondering if anyone can advise a way to create point in time snapshots of Project Assessments screen. Not sure what the default name is for the configured screen as we have changed it and I don’t know the history. But we have project achievements and the various RAG indicators etc. (Project Status Report).  I know I can print to pdf or similar however wondering if there is a way to snapshot and keep the history in the Planview portfolios system.Any suggestions or tips on what others are doing would be appreciated.

Making users aware of their PV License

We want to educate our users as to what license they have.  This would be value add when one person is trying to delegate permissions to another.  If the delegatee can see they have a Team Member (or Time Reporter Only) license they could then identify that they will not be able to perform RM or PM tasks...or we would educate them that they need to look at that first when trying to cross train. Just curious if anyone else has found a need/desire to inform their individual users of the license they have and how you may have done that.  Thanks,PamNASCO

Work Project Progression Defaults

Currently when we create a project the Progression Options for Allocations is set to “Respect Finish Dates”.  Based on the needs of our organization we have been setting this to “Expire Effort and Respect Finish Dates”.  Is there any way to make Expire Effort the “default” setting for when we create new work items?  Or do we have to remember to change it as part of our new project process?

Can a reviewer add more reviewers in project himself?

I have added few persons as reviewers by default when a new project is created. Project manager can add more reviewers later on also. But can a reviewer add another reviewer to same project? Is this functionality directly available or do we need to think to provide editor access to that particular reviewer to achieve this?

Log item create date not showing on the Logbook view in portfolios

When I export Logbook items to Excel or view them in Work Portfolio Dashboard I can view the ‘create date’. However when I view my Logbook items from the view in Portfolios I can’t see the ‘create date’  or ‘last updated date’ and see no option to add these fields to the view.  It seems like a fundamental requirement to have this data displayed.  Is there something I’m missing? or is this functionality not available?

How to make report created with MS Report Builder recognize active Work Portfolio

I have created a report using Report Builder, but when I add it to a tile for a Work Portfolio, it does not recognize the active Work portfolio (all work items are pulled instead of just work within the current Work portfolio).  Does anyone know how I would make my report recognize the Work portfolio?  How about if I want to run it for a single Work entity/item?  I suspect it is in the Report Builder parameters, but I’m not sure how to code it.  Thank you in advance.

Hybrid Work Management Views: Cards & Timekeeping

Hello, is there a way to enable time tracking in the cards within the Hybrid Work Management view? Similar to how in the Classic view, resources can report time directly to a task, is this doable within the Hybrid Management View against tasks either in the task list or via the cards?

Workflow Rule - generate email when Resource is assigned to a Task

I am pretty new to AdaptiveWork and I’m trying to understand the best approach for a Workflow Rule where an email notification is sent to the Resource and Program Manager when a Task (within a particular Portfolio) is created and/or edited.  I will provide specifics attempts I’ve made but a general question I have is: how do you determine the best actor for the rule?  I have tried to create a Workflow Rule from ‘Task’ and from ‘Resource’; each have presented challenges.  This particular portfolio is being used primarily as a virtual Inbox for task assignment and reporting on hours worked (not Project Management) though Tasks are nested under Projects.  Note: The former is creating the emails within the Task but not emailing out.  Workflow Rule for : 'Task'Run time: Every time a record is created or editedCriteria: $ParentProject.C_PortfolioNameSend EmailTo: $ResourceCc: $Parent.ProjectManagerSubject: New Task Assignment: {$Name}Body: Hello [I want to name the Resource here but I’m not

Baseline Time Phased Data

I have been trying to find a way to better present the ‘expected progress’ of a project. The default calculations are soley based on durations, however, most project efforts are not perfectly linear like that, but rather more of an ‘S-curve’. What would be great is if there was a way to save the Time Phased forecast data when a project is ‘Baselined’, so that I could create a custom expected progress field to measure against the ‘baseline forecast’. I have tried created a custom field to capture this via a worfklow, however, it does not seem these time phased fields can be updated via a workflow, or even manually. Am I doing something incorrect?I also realize there is a field called ‘Original’ that may have been intended to serve this purpose, but I am struggling to figure out how this field is calculated, and it appears it cannot be changed once its populated.Anyone have any ideas on how to create this custom functionality, or have some other solutions for the main goal here of produc

Resource Capacity Adjustments

Hello,Is there any way to update a users capacity (or create a new custom capacity) without having to update a users calendar? E.g. a resource has 80% capacity for Project work. Trying to reflect this in a users calendar is near on impossible due to the admin overhead month by month. Alternatively can anything like this be achieved via a custom method? e.g. not using calendars or the capacity module but being able to state a capacity e.g. 80% and then reference this in reports?Many Thanks,Sean
