    Tasks self-added to timesheet?

    Using ARB, how does one determine tasks that have been self-assigned to a timesheet?   

    Ultimately, I would be building a report with the following columns

     TIMESHEET OWNER  PROJECT NAME  TASK NAME

     

    (We would apply filters for department and date ranges.  )

    Tieing to project name seems to be an issue also.   I tried using project name in  "task work entries" but that produces an error mentioning TASK ITEM ID although I am not using that column. 

    I have been going through the data presentation model but haven't found an attribute that indicates how a task was assigned to a timesheet.  A possible workaround might be checking to see if the timesheet owner is not currently assigned to the task but on the timesheet. This would be close not perfect since it's possible the person had been assigned and then dropped, although this situation should be extremely rare and not an issue that has to appear in the report. 

    Thanks,

    AEG

    Andrew, You would use a filter where Created By was you.

     John,

     Thanks for responding.  Let me clarify a bit more.  I myself am not adding any tasks.  Rather, in a department some people are self assigning themselves to tasks.  It's those tasks and people we want to report on.

    Ok, then give them the opportunity to select the author of the report and run the report focused on Created By = ?Author?

     Won't the "created by" field show who wrote the task as opposed to who assigned the task to the resource?
