Adobe Workfront

Hi Team,I hope this message finds you well. I would like to propose an idea for a new feature that could enhance our document access management.Feature Proposal:The proposed feature would allow document access to be automatically managed in two steps:Initial Access: Grant public access to external users, allowing anyone with a public link to view the document.Automatic Change as per selected date: After a defined date or time automatically change the access settings to restrict visibility so that only specified users on the access list can view the document.Benefits:Enhanced Security: Ensures that sensitive documents are not permanently accessible to external users.Improved Workflow: Simplifies the process of managing document access by automating transitions.Time Efficiency: Reduces manual effort required to update access settings.I believe this feature could significantly benefit our team by allowing temporary public access while ensuring privacy and security after the designated per

We would like to have a direct link between a Slack channel and the Workfront update feed of a project (and other work items).When sending a message in the Slack channel, an update is automatically posted on the related project in Workfront. This would work in both directions. When writing an Update in Workfront, the Slack channel gets updated.With this feature no important information will get lost in a Slack channel, but to be found where it is needed the most!

Description - We would like to have the ability to recalculate timeline when in a project MilestoneWhy is this feature important to you - this would save time on large projects. Often, we work in the milestone since WF is slow on big projects. It saves us time adding project tasks at a milestone level. How would you like the feature to work - add the recalculate timeline to the three dots on the milestoneCurrent Behaviour - it is time consuming since we add new tasks, predecessors and dates under the milestone, and everything sits for a long time in gray. We need to get the new dates, so we have to exit the milestone and recalculate timeline from the three dots at project level.  

Current Behavior: When a proof is created and a custom proof message is used, by default it will be used for every version of that proof. Sometimes the custom message is very specific to the round of proof. When that message is sent out in additional versions it can cause confusion. By defaulting it between rounds users can forget to uncheck it when creating new versions. This has caused confusion with some of my groups.Proposed Behavior: Include a setting that would reset the use of a custom notification for additional rounds of a proof at an instance level. If active it would uncheck the “Add custom message” radio button at each additional round of proof. They can reselect it and add a new message if it is needed.

Description - Currently, you cannot change the dates of tasks within the Workload balancer, although there are tiles that can be moved from person to person.Why is this feature important to you - When a user is doing the activity of workload balancing, there are frequently times where lack of capacity forces work to change Start or End date. Being able to do that within the same exercise and assigning work to people would save so much time, reduce risk of incorrect input, and improve user experience/adoption.How would you like the feature to work - We would like for the bars tied to a task to be movable across the date columns.Current Behaviour - Currently bars can move up and down from person to person, but they cannot move left to right from day to day.

We finally got the planned dates to "stick" so now the calendar is usable (for me!) and not dependent on when people mark their tasks done. However, not being able to export or print the calendar is still a problem so I can't use it as my single point of truth. We need to be able to print in order to take notes and distribute more widely. I'm very bummed about this turn of events.

From time to time, we have one Fusion scenario call another Fusion scenario in order to centralize things like authentication token management.  (An example of this is when we call NetSuite, where NetSuite requires a specialized token process that isn't supported out of the box by Fusion's credentials mechanism.)  Adobe PS recommended we put the token generation/retrieval process be put in its own scenario, and then call that scenario in whichever scenarios we'll be doing further business logic (such as calling NetSuite for some specific API calls using that token gathered before).The issue we're finding is that Fusion sometimes returns an "Accepted" response rather than the intended webhook JSON.  Basically, it looks like Fusion webhooks are not guaranteed to execute when called but may be queued under some loading conditions.  Retrying isn't necessarily guaranteed to fix this, either.What's really needed is the ability to execute that dependent/child scenario _wit

Description - Create native fields that roll up all of the project's planned hours and actual hours into program level fields.  Similar to how project's have native fields that total all of task's planned and actual hours. Why is this feature important to you - We budget/allocate hours at the PROGRAM (Campaign) level then there are several projects within those campaigns.  We need to report at the PROGRAM (Campaign) level our budgeted hours (planned by mangement) vs. planned hours (entered into projects by the PMs) vs. Actual Hours  How would you like the feature to work - Workfront create two new native fields: Program Planned Hours (sum of all project's planned hours for the projects that fall inside the program) and Program Actual Hours (sum of all project's actual hours logged for the projects that fall inside the program).  Then these native fields can be easily used on program level reporting. Current Behaviour - Can only pull PROJECT level repo

Description - Allow blank entry for drop down list fields.Why is this feature important to you - Currently, when you select a value and save, you are not able to change it back to blank.  The only way around this is to delete the task and create a new one.  How would you like the feature to work - Allow list values to contain a blank or space value.Current Behaviour - List values do not allow for blank or space values.  

Description - We want to be able to export info from fusion, specifically the scenario history tab.Why is this feature important to you - We want to use this info to calculate time saved via fusion automations.How would you like the feature to work - There would be an "export" button that would let you export the history into an excel sheet, similarly to other reports in Workfront.Current Behaviour - No reporting options exist.

We have limited options for accessing data points in typeahead custom form fields in standard mode reporting. Examples:On Task report creation with typeahead fields .Task Resource Pool and .TaskResourceManagerImage 1: Filter field picker - We can only use the ID of those records.Image 2: Column field picker - We can only add the ID and the Name of the Team/User linked recordWe would like to be able to use all fields of the linked User / Team object, for Column and as Filter in order to avoid switching to Text Mode.

Description - Create a new space in the setup area for New Home updates that can be applied as global settings for groups Why is this feature important to you - Currently, having the ability to make changes on layout templates is awesome for widget settings, but it is a lot to manage and customize all the different templates we have. I am currently adding in the same the same custom fields, filters, groups and views for each template that we use so all the teams have access to the same settings. We have slight variances in our layout templates for our users, so I am not able to move to one universal layout template for all users to reduce the workload as an admin to manage settings.  How would you like the feature to work - Under the setup area, a new area would be made available to admins to be able to make updates to widget settings for groups globally. This would reduce the chances of human error if some layout templates are missing custom fields, filters, groups and

Description - Allow schedules, such as non work days defined at the system level, be added to calendar reports, or allow reports be created of schedules to show data in date or calendar format. Why is this feature important to you - Project managers/team members would ike to see which non work days are impacting the schedule of their projects.  How would you like the feature to work - present data in calendar format or in a report. Current Behaviour - Currently there is no easy way to access the informaiton, other than navigating to workload balancer and tweaking the filters to show the info. Also there are no fields available to pull the data and present them in a report. 

Description - we have users who have not changed their passwords in a very long time. i think it would be very beneficial if i was able to trigger a password request email in bulk Why is this feature important to you - as of right now, the only way to change a users password is one on one. being that i do not have time to do that, it would be substantially easier to send emails in bulk. How would you like the feature to work - i would like to be able to trigger an email from the admin console that goes to all of the WF users in the organization that would send a password reset request to all usersCurrent Behaviour - right now, this feature does not exist. if we were to have a data breach or something along those lines, it could take days or even weeks to get everybodys passwords changed over

Description - Allow the admin the option to hide certain quick action buttons for My Tasks and My Project widgetsWhy is this feature important to you - Some action buttons we do not want users to have access to or we do not use that feature (example: we do not log time). Also, this would help with training purposes to not have to reiterate to users to not use certain actions and simplify the experience for users.How would you like the feature to work - Allow an option for the admin in the layout template settings to hide certain quick actions. Current Behaviour - Does not exist; users see all quick action buttons

Description - Add the Reference # as an option to the My Tasks and My Projects widgets for views as a default option without customizing a layout templateWhy is this feature important to you - Some teams utilize this as their project number and this would be helpful to be able to see quickly on the home page when looking up projects in our DAM tool as our projects follow a similar naming convention and the titles look similar making it hard to search. Currently, the user would need to go back into the brief or use a report to retrieve the number.How would you like the feature to work - Allow a toggle option for Reference # in the view column dropdown list that the user can turn on and off Current Behaviour - Currently this is not an available option in the list 

Description -  The "New" button on these widget does not bring user to the expected "New request" queue area. It is very confusing for a user that does not access Workfront regularly to train them to not click the "New" that is right in the center of their page under "My Requests". So I need to remove this widget from his homepage but I can't. Why is this feature important to you - My requestors rarely use Workfront and these buttons are confusing.  Also these widgets are not removable for the "Request" or "Review" access types. Why have an editable homepage that we can't edit? How would you like the feature to work - Remove the "New" button or allow it to be directed to "New Requests" Current Behaviour -It adds a request onto an existing project

We have automatic user provisioning configured in Workfront. If a user has a name or email address updated a new user is created. If we don't catch this in time, the user will be on the new account so user activity/comments/assignments will be tracked there. It would be helpful to merge the two accounts with all user activity/comments/assignments.

Description - Reporting capabilities. Goal of this report is for resource to have a consolidated list of tasks from various projects where they can update their logged hours. Why is this feature important to you - Our campaign managers are managing multiple project (10+) at a given time. A report pulling in their tasks where they are able to update the logged hours in real time would help keep all projects they are managing and true time spent as accurate as possible. This would prevent the Campaign Managers from having to go into each project individually.How would you like the feature to work - Report to pull assigned tasks with ability to edit the logged hours on any tasks in progress or new on all projects based on filters set.Current Behavior - Task report does not allow you to log hours from the report. Hours report only pulls tasks with time already associated and not tasks that need to be started and logged.   

Description - Ability to delegate work (task assignments and projects) from new Workfront work space page & have the ability to delegate to multiple team members during the same time frame depending on work typeWhy is this feature important to you - We need the ability to delegate work during PTO and leaves. We are trying to figure out the most efficient way to do this still via current UI design and options How would you like the feature to work - Current Behavior - Delegate work not available option on the new Workspace page 

One of the biggest complaints from our PMs is that there is no easy way to ensure that users stop logging time to a task after it is "Completed". We will have situations were at the end of the month a person it needing to update their timesheet and they are entering hours beyond the date the task was closed. So it becomes a 'dumping ground' for hours. We have created exception reports to help the PMs monitor when someone is logging time to a Task beyond the Actual Completion Date, however, it's just extra overhead for them that takes time away from more important PM functions. They would really like it if they have an way to stop this from happening; they already have enough reports to monitor. There is one option that they can attempt to stop this, but it requires that they update the Sharing Option for each person assigned to the Task to un-check the "log time" option, which is also very time consuming depending on the number of Tasks that need to

Description - Allow non-SSO iOS users access to the Mobile app using username and passwordWhy is this feature important to you - So that Android and iOS users have a common method of connecting to WF through the app.How would you like the feature to work - When they try to log in, it would allow the to enter their username and password to connect.Current Behaviour - It currently ask for them to log in via a Microsoft account. If they do not have a Microsoft linked to their email, then they can't use the app. They would only be able to connect via a web browser.Thanks, Matt.

Description - When users add a new job, they'll often forget to set the duration from the default setting of 0. Resulting in the jobs not showing in the Traffic Manager's dashboard. Why is this feature important to you - Having the ability to set the duration of the job in setting to any duration (ex. 1h) will act as a fail safe for that problem. How would you like the feature to work - by giving the admins the ability to set default job durations in job settings. Current Behaviour - User adds a new job and forgets to set the job duration resulting in a job with 0 duration in the jobs list.

I would love to see the new form designer incorporate some better cues to show logic connections. The new form just has the D for display logic or S for skip logic (and filled in or not filled in based on end of connections); however, this does not solve for seeing which fields are connected to each other. Previously there was color-coding, which was sometimes hard to distinguish but was still very helpful. I would love to see some sort of boxes with colors and/or numbers to show which fields are connected so we don't have to attempt to click into several fields and scroll to additional settings at the bottom to find out what each field is connected to. We also could easily see before which fields were VERY connected (i.e. had several other fields connected to them, so we knew we needed to be extra careful). Now we have to click into each to find these.  This is important because the new form builder will now be the only option. We have many large forms with a lot of log

emails are unique acorss the systems whereas $$USER.name may not be.  Also, since name may include umlauts/accents that variable is not ideal.  I want to filter (report/view) based on the current user's email address because on our case the address is stored in custom field when we don't find the user; if the user later were added to WF I'd like to have a report to show those items where the custom field has their email address
