External Reference Number Field

I’d love to see an additional data field added to harvest that would help tremendously with integrations.

In my specific case it could be used for ZenDesk integration and could store the Ticket Number (nice-id) from the widget instead of having that data stored in the note field on harvest. This would dramatically simplify any efforts to query Harvest for time entries based on a specific Ticket.

I currently have to pull all time entries from a date range (start & end date of the ZenDesk ticket) for each of my people in harvest and then parse the note field for a ticket number match. This results in multiple connections/queries and much more data transferring from Harvest than necesssary.

I’m sure there are many other integrations that could also make use of a generic field for cross-reference ability.

Thanks!
