Introduce a “Current Fiscal Year” default KPI display option in expense tab so summaries automatically align to the active fiscal year while still allowing users to change the timeframe as needed

Today, Apptio KPI summaries can display unexpected totals depending on individual user configuration (e.g., First Year of Plan, Selected Timeframe, or Rolling 4 Quarter Forecast). This often results in dashboards continuing to show prior‑year valu...

In the Cluster Master, on the Peers tab, it would be nice to be able to save the column configuration you choose.

I have to move the columns around to see the object volume next to the peer names. I'll make device move changes and have to refresh to see the new amounts, but the columns always jump back to the way they were initially. It would be nice to save ...
