Time-Off to auto-log hours to the Timesheet

Thank you for the submission! We think this is a good enhancement to the Workfront platform overall and this product area in particular!

Workfront currently prioritizes large-scale, foundational enhancements such as the new Reporting experience and changes to the core data model, so this item does not fit in our near-term roadmap. As such, I am marking this as Declined now, but we'll keep this in our backlog for the improvements for this area so that we can revisit the decision in the future.

Has this been done in the redesign of the time management tool? I don't see my "Time Off" integrated in my Timesheet, yet - in Workfront Classic. Agree that is would be useful to see that in there.

Please make sure you consider Hour Types and Overhead Types when doing this. Right now you when you create a new Hour Type you cannot give it a Scope/Overhead Type of Non-work, only General or Project Specific.

Hi David and everyone,

We are planning a major redesign of the time management tool in the future. This will be addressed in that redesign.

I totally agree, and would like to add:

Show bank holidays in Timesheets with a different colour an have this auto-filled accordingly.

The same way - irregular working weekends should be switchable by Sys Admins to "weekday" colour.

Yes, this is one of the problem we are facing. And its weird from the user, that they have to add hours at both places. Because

these kind of small functionality gives a good floe while working in a software like Workfront.

100% agree that this should be time sheeted automatically I get asked this constantly by our users!

I also agree its not easy to find....

Thanks

Yes! We have integrated our proprietary calendar with Time Off via API, but it doesn't talk to the Time Sheet. Its causing such confusion. Need this!

Slightly OT - but I'd love at the same time if they moved the "Time-off" area to be somewhere more visible to users.

Our ideal scenario:

Time off can have unlimited types determined by the admin at the timesheet profile level (ex: Vacation, Sick, Summer Friday)

Time off types can be archived if they are no longer applicable WITHOUT losing the hours from the past (ex: no longer using Summer Fridays, new time off type called Summer Sunny Days is created)

Planned time off shows in resourcing, but the admin can turn on or off ability to see time off type (this protects privacy of employees taking personal days for bereavement or time off for medical reasons)

Planned time off auto populates on the users timesheet
