Do you support Asana formula field?
Yes, you can use the formula field as a unit in the charts. All formula fields are automatically imported. However, to make them available as a unit, you must ensure that the field is mapped to a unit in the custom fields mapping. Once it is mapped, it will be available in the unit menus. You can learn more from this guide.

What if I archive a task?
Archived tasks are treated differently depending on whether they are completed or not. Completed tasks are still considered completed even if they are archived. Tasks that are archived before they were completed are considered removed. Archiving a task doesn't affect its metrics collected before it was archived.

Will Screenful make changes to my data, or is my data affected in any way?
We do not make changes to your data. We only read it via the API of your tool. Screenful is only for reporting and analytics. It does not update any data within your tools.

Is there a way to remove outliers from the data?
If you want to exclude individual items from the metrics, you can do it by following the steps below
Set a specific label or tag (e.g. "excluded") to the item you want to exclude (task, issue, user story etc.)
Go to Screenful and reset the data source in the Data sync options
Go to the chart in question and set a filter (e.g. label is none of 'excluded')
If the item is already archived, you have to unarchive it first. Then apply the steps 1-2. After that, you can archive it again.

Does this support my specific workflow or do I have to use some specific states like "open", "in progress" and "done"?
You are not limited to any specific set of states or a workflow. You can configure your own workflow, if such exists, and you can use that in your reporting. It's also ok if you don't have any workflow in your boards, as can create reports based on any other criteria by setting a filter.

How often is data updated?
All data sources are synced automatically once per hour. Changing settings or configuration will trigger additional sync so your data is at most one hour old. You can sync data manually at any time in the sync settings.

Troubleshooting
My charts are missing data
The likely reason is that your workflow mapping is not done correctly. You can learn more about the workflow mapping from this guide.

I have created an automation to move completed tasks from one Asana board to another. Will that mess up my stats?
If a task is moved from Project A to Project B, you will lose the task history from Project A since the Asana API won't return it anymore. Instead of moving to another project, you can create a dedicated "Archived" section at the bottom of your project (that is folded by default), and set up an automation to move completed tasks to that section instead of another project. That way, you won't lose any history.

Why can’t I see all the projects in my Asana account?
When you are importing projects, you are shown all the projects of the teams in which you are a member. In order to see more projects, add yourself to the respective teams.

I added a new custom field but it is not showing
When you add a new custom field to your board, it is imported during the next data sync (the data is synced automatically once per hour). You can trigger sync manually anytime by selecting Data sync options from the main menu. Notice that the new field should also have a value assigned in at least one task.

Some filtering options are missing
Filter options are derived from task data, which means that if you recently added some properties, such as labels, but haven't yet assigned them to any tasks, they won't show up in the filter options. As soon as you assign them to tasks, they will show up in the filter options from then on.
