Adobe Workfront

Happy Friday everyone! Thanks for the awesome engagement yesterday at our Skill Exchange Session about Enabling New Features (and a bit of value realization too) always fun to get out and talk about Workfront.   Had a few people ask for slides so thought I'd share more broadly. If you have any questions that did not get answered yesterday, or any others that crop up post them down below and I'll respond. We can always tag in product experts to help with any specific release questions too.   Thanks to @kristinfarwell for being an amazing host as always!

First and foremost, a HUGE thank you to Kari @karib93wi for sharing the details of the creative brief process for Kohler and taking time to answer so many questions from the chat! And to everyone who attended, we hope that you left feeling inspired and excited about new process improvement ideas for your Workfront environment. There is no one-size-fits-all approach, so while this is just one example, find what works best for you and look to get leadership buy-in for support and adoption!   If you weren't able to join us live, below are links to the slide deck and recording, along with a short summary of what was shared: Slide Deck PDF – these are the Adobe slides (think User Groups, resources, upcoming events)  Kohler slides – this is what Kari shared for her presentation  Workshop recording  Kohler implemented a tiered approach with 4 request types, from large strategic campaigns (Tier 1 and 2) to simple revisions (Tier 4). As leadership approval h

I am trying to download a Print Summary in PDF format with an Issue details, but need to upgrade the generic format and have the possibility to customize it in future. Is there a possibility to:1. To export only certain fields from different sections of Issue Details tab (but not all of them when selecting a specific section)?2. Eliminate Workfront water sign from the PDF document?3. Manage the layout and order of the fields displayed in the PDF document? Eliminate blank space between fields?4. Export the status field with the custom label status, not the system one? (For instance, my custom status is "Pending review", but the system status associated with it is "On Hold". I need exactly "Pending review" to be displayed within the print summary) Thank you in advance!

Hello, friends!To anyone that has implemented WF Planning, I'd love to hear your specific use case - I know the reasoning why Planning was created, have read through documentation, and attended some webinars on it. But I'd like to understand some specific use cases:- Why did you go with Planning instead of core WF for your specific use case?- Are you using Planning only or a mix of Planning & core WF for your use case?- Pros/cons about Planning implementation?- Are you doing XYZ in Planning and then mapping record types to core WF and doing ABC in core WF/connecting the two?If you're inclined to be extra generous, I'd even love a short time with you to see it over screenshare - feel free to send me a private message in Experience League!

I have a new user who has been added to the Workfront platform, but it says Unregistered next to his name. I don't see how to Register the new user.

Hi, I've set up a 'request' approval process that triggers on a status change of a request The approval goes to a 'role' - and there is only 1 person who performs that role. The probelm is - that person doesn't get an email alert about their approval being needed.They DO get a notification. I can't see anything in email settings - both under system/Email/Notifications  or the users personal notification settings that could be blocking this. Can anyone help ? Thanks  

Hi community,We upload zip files containing several separate .jpegs and create one combined proof. Does anyone know of a way to report on the number of images used in each proof please?My overall aim is to count these at Project level.ThanksMatt

Hi, I am trying to remove spaces from values and concat them into a new field with Fusion such that we can easily provide information. This has to be done with Fusion because some of the information is on a higher task or even project level and are custom fields, so doing this with a calculated field is not an option. For now I have 5 fields that I want to concat into one field such that:Field 1: 1112222Field 2: CollectionField 3: Product DescriptionField 4: Volume in MLCombines into the field that shows: 1112222-collection-productdescription-volumeinml I managed to create the concat and also make it lower case using the lower() function. Now I tried to use the replace function by doing replace(fieldname;" ";"") but that does not seem to work. How can I get rid of all the spaces such that the name is just one string of text?

Hello Everyone Can anyone suggest how exactly this module works ? I dont see any details about the below in the documentation. Moreover unlike the documentation specification ,watch rows doesn't retrieve the list of updated rows but all rows. Is there a way to Iterate only on the newly added rows ?  ThanksHarish 

Hi,  I recall earlier this year I had an issue where suddenly review / contributor level users were no longer able to see the planned benefit field on projects within a report. This change is ultimately going to cause us to exceed our paid license count from our contract that was finalized earlier this year. Is there any way around this? Previously, these users were able to see that field without issue. 

I'm looking for a way to show within a form attached to a task the different Hour Types that were logged to it. For instance we use Task time and Support Time.  when i pull a Task report i want to know if only Task time, only Support time or if both Task and Support time were logged on that specific Job.Is there a way to do this within a calculated form field?Trying to avoid having to pull an Hours report as that will result in much more data manipulation when exported to do analysis.additionally.. not sure if there is a way to use calculated fields to total the different Hour types within the task show a total of all Support time logged, and total of all Task time logged. thanks!!

Hello, Some users in my organization have reported that they are no longer receiving email reminders to submit their timesheets. Their accounts are linked to a timesheet profile that is configured to send these reminders one day after the timesheet end date. I use the same timesheet profile and receive the reminders as expected.Is there a specific setting (maybe at group level) that might have disabled these notifications for them? To my knowledge, there is no setting as such. I reported this issue to Workfront support a month ago, but they have not identified the root cause.Timesheet profile:Notification settings:

I am trying to add a column to a task view that will display an icon (red flag) if a task cannot be started because it is outside of the task constraint. I cannot figure out how to text mode this into existence so I can reduce my user support tickets of "why isn't this task showing up on my worklist" by about a dozen per week.  Parameters:Display a red flag if all below are true- Task not complete- Task has a fixed start date & time due to task constraint (ie, must start on)- The current date & time is before the fixed start date & time on the task I would also love it if we could have it display a green flag if the opposite is true (task is not restricted by a fixed start date & time) but, would be very happy to have just the red flag.  We are currently using the flag icon for the native "can start" but, this doesn't factor in fixed dates, it's only really helpful for pending predecessors.

For those working with external clients/users that submit requests, what is your approach when it comes to the main Request area? My problem is that I can't remove filters from the main Requests area and the users can still see the names of Requests that have been submitted by anyone with access to the Request Queues that they have View access to. Ideally I would like to get away from creating a separate Request queue for each external user group, since in the end we may be creating a Request Queue for one person and it would make system management impossible (this is the solution that support has given me). I have thought about removing requests once they have been converted, but if a request doesn't get converted quickly enough there is still the possibility they will see it. Everything I have tried has still given them access to the list of Request names.  These external users will need to be Light users at least due to the approval limitations of Contributors. &

For the Q3 release of the new document proofing buttons will that change when using templates and advanced proofing as well?  Also, wondering where does the message that is added when you select changes require go? Who has access to view that? 

Hi, we#re looking to build on scenarios created by Prof Services into our Assets (managed Service) instance. Is there an API Explorer for Assets (managed Service) API's ? Thanks

When I'm trying to add the connector for Qualtrics I'm getting the following error:failed to call external rpc: failed rpc service call for qualtrics@1 attach:qualtrics: Received error response from rpc service: SC424 - failed to execute rpc call: [401] Status Code Error: 401failed rpc service call for qualtrics@1 attach:qualtrics: Received error response from rpc service: SC424 - failed to execute rpc call: [401] Status Code Error: 401I've used the Qualtrics API a little bit and I know the API key and data center I'm using are right but this isn't working and I'm not sure why. 

Hi Everyone,We recently received the Workfront announcement : ROPG access will expire in 29 days.We are currently using an OAuth2 application (web app). Could you please confirm whether this change will impact our setup? Also, I would appreciate any guidance on what areas I should review or check to ensure there’s no disruption.Thanks in advance for your support! Thanks in Advance!

Hello,  We don't use Google Forms.It would be very helpful to support Microsoft Forms in Workfront Fusion. https://forms.office.com/ Best,Edward

I'm trying to create a view or report that can give me a count of the number of issues logged to a task. The only native field available I see is for 'number of open issues'. I don't want to limit the count by status of the issue, I want to count all of them. Can I do this with a calculated field maybe? Thanks in advance!
