Filter on Effort within Views & Dashboard Widgets

Currently, within views, you can filter on Effort being Enabled, Disabled, or Any.

Within dashboard widgets, I don’t see any options to filter based on Effort. It would be useful if the filtering on Effort could be expanded to allow us to identify tasks that are missing effort and tasks that fit a certain criteria regarding effort. For example, I’d like to be able to create a filter that pulls all tasks where Effort is >= 2 hours.

Thank you.

Hey, @Lindsay Kiley 🙋🏻‍♀️

That makes sense! Currently, the Effort filter is not available on dashboard widgets, but it would definitely be useful in the case you shared — identifying tasks that are missing effort and tasks that fit certain criteria regarding effort.

On the other hand, it's possible to create a widget with Effort metrics that shows info by user or by tasks. Please check out the screenshot 👇🏼

I've passed your suggestion on to the product team.

Lindsay, we are adding missing Effort filter and you should expect it to be available pretty soon

Hi, I too have run into this need for this. We are relying on team members to enter their effort needed on certain tasks...afterall, they will know best what it will take.

For example, we have a workflow/item type called "Shop Drawings" - and we have a QA/QC dashboard for submittals ... widgets for items left behind, items on deck to send, or items that do not have assigned effort. I cannot get this widget working without an effort filter.

Another dashboard that we have is a "Time off with Pay" dashboard - we need those days to be entered with effort for them to show up correctly as effort that's consumed (or unavailable), but we need a way to hone in on mistakes by team members when entering.
