Welcome

I created a field which references user groups, and I want the field selection prompt to only allow selecting existing options, and to completely hide the “New” tab that always appears.  How can I do this?

 As we are redesigning the WorkPlan experience in AdaptiveWork, we wanted to gather some inputs from you.In this session we will:Focus on the various facets of WorkPlan in AdaptiveWork Have dedicated discussions about each of these elements in WorkPlan Speak to our ongoing development plans in this area for the futureWe recommend everyone joining the session be familiar with Project Planning and the general concepts of WBS (Work Breakdown Structure), Gantt Charts, Dependencies and Constraints, and how they impact your organization so that you can make the most from the Inner Circle. These discussions will help us share and prioritize the WorkPlan design/development roadmap and keep you updated about our progress.Use the registration link below to join the session that better fits your time zone. Americas - https://info.planview.com/AdaptiveWork_WorkPlan_Americas-_user-group_prm_en_reg.htmlEMEA - https://info.planview.com/AdaptiveWork_WorkPlan_Europe-_user-group_prm_en_reg.html

One of our departments would like to be able to add comments to the Active Lifecycle Steps tile. They monitor the work and want to keep track of why an active step has not been completed for some time.  I tried creating a copy of the Active Lifecycle Steps tile and adding a field to it, but have not been able to do so successfully.  Has anyone else done something like this and could assist me?

Our company would like the following features added to Portfolios particularly the Issues recordsAbility to set up a specific Column Set in the Issues Grids Have editable and viewable controls over the columns - similar to portfolio view Auditing on ANY field (not just alternate structures) to capture history of the value/value changed/ who changed/datetime This is Critical for SOX compliance

When I woke up today I didn’t feel older, but I know I am. When I weighed myself I lost a couple pounds since yesterday.Nothing stays the same. Some things improve (my weight). Some things degrade (my age).Your flow performance is the same.Many people assume flow performance is the same as it was 6 months ago. It is not.You are either improving or degrading.This is the second law of thermodynamics and it holds for flow. 

To achieve some PS forecasting, we were wanting to make a custom field that would take the Time Phase Data of Staffing Requests + Project Assignments for a Project and multiply the Sum of the Hours with a calculated dollar value. We are not seeing a way to sum both Staffing Requests and Project Assignments in a Custom Field. Any advice on how we can achieve this?

Hi Planview Community! As mentioned before, we are trying to work with the Objectives, Target and Contributions module in AW. It’s proving to be a bit tricky! So, I wanted to ask if any of you use it, and if so, do you report from it? How?  We tried creating some reports, but failed magnifincelty. We looked for the data model, but it doesn’t seem to include them. Does anyone know if there is an updated version of the data model that includes them?Thanks a lot! 

Attached is the Planview Flow Methodology Scrum Master & Product Owner Quick Start Checklist provides a quick and practical way to jumpstart improving flow through simple steps that take less than 5 minutes. By focusing on daily actions like unblocking stalled work, monitoring aging tasks, and prioritizing effectively, teams can see immediate benefits. Even if you only do one thing, such as leveraging the Flow Optimizer to stabilize Flow Time, you can make a measurable impact.While there are many additional strategies to explore, these foundational actions lay the groundwork for meaningful improvement. One particularly impactful practice is using headcount timeline events and timeline events to provide critical context—both within your product team and to stakeholders evaluating flow at the portfolio level.Key Benefits Quick Wins: Immediate improvements from small, daily actions that stabilize and optimize Flow Time. Even one action—like unblocking value in stalled work—can delive

Hi Community,I’m excited to share the Quarterly Portfolio Review Template, an actual customer example of how Flow Metrics are used in Portfolio Reviews with Product Leads and Executives. This template provides a practical way to visualize and discuss progress, ensuring alignment and actionable insights at both quarterly and monthly intervals.What’s New and Coming SoonThe current version is available now, but I’m excited to announce that the next version will be published shortly, featuring:Portfolio Flow Metrics Screen: A consolidated view of Flow Metrics across the portfolio.

I’ve been searching for better understanding of allocation schedule finish dates that pass, and time can still be reported. When a resource allocation schedule clears out in the Plan screen, resources can still report time, even if the schedule no longer exists.  After finish date passes, and progression runs the schedule line clears out. The task remains on the resource’s timesheet, and hours can still be reported. It is unclear to me why time can be reported to a project without an existing allocation.I’m told this is by design, if time has already been reported for a project, the user can continue to report time for it even if schedule no longer exists.My questions are do others experience this, and if so, are you simply communicating to the PMs to open the plan screen to monitor allocation schedules that are now blank? Or monitor using the Schedule v Actual report? Is there a configuration setting I am missing?

Hello all,Is there any way to locking editing/deleting under ‘Admin’ tab in PPM Pro? if not is there any way to track these changes? Audit log for example.Or if there is a workaround to have the above.

In the Task List view, there does not appear to be any way to mark all tasks that have overallocated resources. For e.g. MS Project puts a red resource icon in the Info column making it easy for the PM to go to such tasks at a glance. The only way in PPM Pro seems to be to click into each task and check.If not, is there a way to achieve this with a calculated field? 

Last month we had to update everyone’s email address in Planview. This was easy for us to do as we just had to export all of our users in Planview Admin to a csv, update the email address and import it back. We were able to keep our old email addresses in Portfolios and in Agileplace as we were able to use the map to function in Planview admin. After the December update in portfolios, the Planview Admin and Portfolios email addresses have to match in order to authenticate. 

I want to send email to assigned resources if task is yet Active and due date is in 2 days from today.I tried to create a scheduled workflow rule but it did not trigger email.can anyone share the sample condition and on which object it should be created?

I want to present a yes/no question and then have another question show up depending on their selection of yes or no

Hi Community,I hope you're doing well.I'm wondering if anyone has experience working with the Document Publisher App and could help me with an issue related to entity relationships.I'm trying to build a report for a project, and I need to retrieve data about its milestones while applying filters based on attributes of the resources associated with these milestones. To achieve this, I need to relate three entities, but I'm unsure how to proceed.Does anyone know how to approach this? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance!Best regards,

Hello!Desperate need of help. I created an org calendar based upon our 2025 financial budget to account for planned PTO as we are not utilizing actual PTO/timesheets. It ruined all of our projects that had previous resource allocations, and changed everything… I’m talking 500+ projects and thousands of resources. Is there a way to undo what I did, or restore the allocations? 

Hello community,We hope everyone is doing well.We have a concern regarding a situation that arises when importing schedules from MS Project to Adaptive Work.In PV Portfolios, it is possible to import a project schedule from MS Project while specifying how it should be imported. This allows us to avoid relationships between predecessor and successor activities, restrictions, flags, and resource assignments.We would like to know if there is a similar functionality in Adaptive Work to prevent dates from appearing as “user-defined” when importing from MS Project. We require this because having date restrictions prevents the system from automatically calculating durations and dates. Consequently, we need to manually remove each restriction to enable proper planning.¿How do you usually handle this issue with the restrictions in Adaptive Work? Best regards,Oscar Suarez

Hi there!We have been creating reports and dashboards, and noticed that for some graphs, you can hover over the Project name and get a Summary card displayed. We like that, as it provides complementary information to the data on display. However, the summary card layout is the same anywhere you are looking at it.For example: we are now focused on financial dashboards, so it’s valuable to add to the summary card information related to the Project Budget, Actual Cost, Forecast. However, if we are looking at a demand dashboard, such information wouldn’t be that valuable. Is there a way to create a dynamic layout for summary cards? Maybe add a rule to make it contextual? Thanks! Maca

Does anyone have any experience with creating a report in AdaptiveWork to roll up Action Items that are nested and attached to children work items. For example we have a program and are trying to create a report to aggregate any action item that is attached to any Project, Milestone or task nested under the program. We would also like to do the same type of report for Risks, Issues and Decisions as well eventually.

Hello, I’m trying to add Skill to an email notification via the Staffing Request. How do I link Skills so that it can be added to the email body as Tostring? Thanks and regards,J

Then they will mark task as complete and next milestone will be created.in this SKU how to add reference project name?workflow to be defined at project level or On SKU object directly?My project name should automatically be populated in SKU object when new row is created on SKU. 

Hi all,I’m hoping to get some assistance with data loader. I’m trying to add members to existing groups and using update to add the members. However, it keeps saying that the field Member is not updateable using the item type: GroupMembershipLink. Can someone advice which item type I should use if this is not the correct one. There is more than one member per group separated by commas.Thank you :) Jess  

Hi All, I have received below query from one of my super user ,any help will be greatly appreciated :“Some of the PMs have put constrained start and end dates on task that I've asked them to remove so activities are properly scheduled.  To remove the constraint, they need to use 'Restore'.  Can they do a 'restore' for multiple tasks or do they have to do that for the start and end dates individually?”
