It is possible to assign graphical indicators in the Gantt chart view, however those do not carry over to reports, such as the Milestone report. Only text will be displayed in the report, where a visual representation of the data would be extremely useful. Please enable conditional formatting to enhance reporting capability, and reduce the need for third party reporting tools.

Including risks and issues on reports

I would like to have a chance to input comments (and/or notes) on the timesheet per day and not by task.

Enable spelling and grammar check on PDPs, in particular for custom fields with multiple lines of text. Today you can select the spelling language in the Format Text ribbon, but it does not flag any typos. Having a spelling and grammar check on custom fields with a single line of text would be useful as well. Today the only option seems to be downloading and installing browser freeware.

If there are two fields and the first is a Yes/No question and is mandatory, the second field should become mandatory depending on how the first is answered.

Sometimes we ask PM's to provide info in text field if the answer to Q1 is Yes. But we have to make both fields mandatory which means if the answer is No they still have to answer something (e.g. NA) and we use the description to explain this. Quite a clunky solution.

Resource Engagments would need better reporting (more columns in the odata feeds; for example EngagementComments) should be enable to better track and report your Resource Portfolio.

Improve performance. The queue jobs are not moving...

It would be very helpful In the timescale set up options when you select "Use fiscal year" that "FY" is added to the date display. So that the 2016, 2017, 2018 is shown as FY2016, FY2017, FY2018 or FY16, FY17, FY18 in the label. So that the viewer or reader visually knows the schedule calculated by FY, vice CY years. Many government programs must use fiscal year so "first quarter" is Oct - Dec.

There are multiple options defined in two look-up tables. Instead of having all of the options available in field 2, the options are limited after the user chooses an option in field 1.

The Task entry shows a total hours by Task line but there is no Total for the entire Period. I don't know that Timesheets shows a period total but whether it does or not, it should also be available if a company opts to use Task Entry (versus Timesheets)

Allow admins to choose date or date/time format for new enterprise custom fields. Right now, all date fields are date/time, which is not intuitive for users.

Possibility to manage something like SharePoint lists or managed metadata to improve lookup table maintenance (e.g. Customer list from LOB).

e.g. when Suzie leaves the company, allow for a global replacement of status manager on any tasks that carry her name. OR when a Chris has an accident and never returns to work, allow any timesheets that have already been submitted to him but not approved to automatically transition to the new assigned timesheet approver.

For some key business reasons, we do not use the Timesheet function. However, we would like the ability to know when Task Updates are submitted for weekly periods to be included in the oData so that we can report on submission (versus having to wait for approval from the Status Managers.)

The time period shown on the screen should be based on current date. For example, this is Dec. 16, yet a period for August shows on the screen. I have submitted a timesheet for August several times, only to have to back it out. Instead, I have to search for current period each time for data entry. Also, I send my timesheet to same person every week, yet I have to search for the name because the default name is first on the list. Again, I have had to back out.

Allow administrative configuration to show or hide command buttons, as dictated by organizational needs. Many buttons aren't ever needed by us. The current 'solution' of simply hiding toolbars only confuses or frustrates our users.

When creating a Risk you have the option to assign a risk to another person. Although you assign a risk, it does not notify the person assigned unless the risk is manually shared once saved.

Ideally the risk should be automatically emailed to the assigned person upon saving the risk

You logged your Risk, now its an issue, with one click it creates an issue...you fill out the rest of the details and it links back to issue, date and history with it. This proves a PM did his due dilegance early on in identifying risks as well. Every time I train customers someone always asks if they can do it, I have to say sorry no easy button.
