How long do draft requests remain in the draft folder?  I wasn’t sure if there was a time limit for how long they will remain in the draft folder?  

I’m working with this expression to bring some Task data onto a Project report. Each project will have multiple tasks that meet this criteria (ie multiple children under the Bottling parent). Is there a way to tell the report to put the outputs in a certain order - ideally sorted by the Planned Start Date. Right now it seems to put them in an unpredictable order, maybe affected by the task status or latest update…I can’t figure out exactly what it’s using to reorder the outputs. displayname=Itemslistdelimiter=<br>listmethod=nested(tasks).liststype=iteratevalueexpression=IF(CONTAINS("Bottling",{parent}.{name}),CONCAT({plannedStartDate}," • ",{name}," • ",{DE:SKU#}," • ",{DE:Estate Bottling Volume}," ",{DE:Estate Bottling UOM}))valueformat=HTML

Successful organizations don’t treat planning, execution and reporting as separate activities; they connect them. In this session, join Workfront Expert, ​@Madalyn_Destafney as she shares how to leverage Workfront Planning alongside Workfront Workflow to create a connected operating model that moves seamlessly from planning into execution, with real-time visibility through Canvas Dashboards.  If you weren’t able to attend live — or want to revisit any part of the session — you can access everything below: Slide Deck PDF  Webinar Recording During the session, Madalyn shared use case ideas and demonstrated how Workflow continues to power execution. She then showed the power of Canvas Dashboards to bring both together to see the full picture.  Whether you’re just getting started with Workfront Planning or looking to mature how your organization plans, executes and reports on work, this session will provide practical guidance that you can apply immediately. Huge thanks to Madalyn sharing h

Hello, I would like to increase the webcapture timeout setting to help with proofing. I just can’t find the correct option anywhere in the proofing, account settings.Has anyone changed this settings? Where was it? I assume it should be somewhere because it was mentioned in a known issue:https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/workfront-known-issues/issues/new-workfront-experience/wf-current/wf-proofs-webcapture-proof-not-generate

We are looking to drive custom notifications and other actions once a task’s Can Start {canStart} updates;Examples of actions when a task can start moves from false to true:  Add note and task assignee informing them their task can begin Review documents and add reference information to updates from previous tasks Review fields on other tasks and update downstream tasks as appropriate     Currently, there does not appear to be a way to watch this field, record or event which watches the system canStart field on a task.  

Hi, is there any way to show the issue’s status for a user inside the issue view but block it for the user to not be able to change it, just show the field but block it ? i tried through the layout template but you either remove it completely or show it.thanks,Bianca

Hi everyone,I’m trying to implement a Portfolio → Program dependency in Adobe Workfront and ran into a behavior that I’d like to understand better.BackgroundIn the native Workfront project fields, Portfolio and Program already exist as built-in fields. When we create a project: Portfolio can be selected Program automatically shows only programs related to that portfolio This dependency works perfectly.However, the problem is that these native Portfolio and Program fields are not required fields, and Workfront does not allow us to make them required.What we triedTo make these fields required, we created them again in a Custom Form using reference fields: Portfolio field Reference Field: Portfolio Set as Required Program field Reference Field: Program Set as Required The goal was to force users to select both Portfolio and Program when creating a project.IssueAfter creating these fields in the custom form: When we select a Portfolio, The Program field still shows

Does anyone know why the proofing tool would give you the error message "proof failed to generate", when the user is set to "Manager" vs "Supervisor in the users "proof permission profile"?If i change it to Supervisor it works, but if it's Manager i get the error message.

Hi Everyone,I’m trying to understand how to implement a Parent–Child project structure in Adobe Workfront so that multiple projects can stay aligned with a master project timeline.The idea is to have a hierarchy like this:Portfolio → Program → Parent Project → Multiple Child ProjectsThe Parent Project would contain the main timeline and key milestone tasks. The Child Projects would represent different workstreams (for example: Marketing Campaign, Sales Training, Customer Enablement, etc.), each owned by different teams.The goal is that when the dates in the Parent Project change, the related tasks in the Child Projects should automatically adjust so that all teams stay synchronized.I’ve seen diagrams where tasks in the Child Projects are linked to tasks in the Parent Project, possibly using cross-project dependencies or predecessor relationships.My questions are:  Is this possible ? What is the best way to implement this structure in Workfront? Can Parent and Child Projects be formal

Our workflow would greatly benefit from being able to keep Proofing Comments on future versions until they are marked as Resolved or Unactioned. This would allow for conversations to continue and reviewers to quickly see the thread without having to flip back several versions or searching through the document updates

I keep getting a “Forbidden resource” pop-up when opening Fusion scenarios recently: Is anyone else getting this?  I can still run/edit the scenarios, but I can no longer access the Incomplete Executions tab.  Last week I got an email about an incomplete execution; the scenario in question runs once daily, so I was able to able to go into the History tab and look at the most recent entry to find the issue.  My concern is with scenarios that have instant triggers--if any runs have an incomplete execution, it may be harder to identify them using just the History tab (some scenarios have hundreds of executions per day).I wanted to check if anyone else has seen this behavior in their Fusion instance.

We have recently become aware that we are no longer able to create negative expenses.This has created a huge problems on our end with invoicing clients.We often have corporate card returns/refunds that, of course, come through as a negative number. If we’ve already invoiced a client by adding the original expense to a billing record, we have no way to now add a negative expense to a future billing record to reduce the next invoice for that client. And if we haven’t already invoiced the client, zero’ing out that expense creates an audit mis-alignment with our financial system. We also often have credits that come from suppliers related to an invoice that we’ve posted. Same as expenses, not being able to create a negative expense for supplier credits causes the same problems on this expense type.We were not made aware that this change was coming and it is causing errors in our Fusion automations that try to create a negative expense record in Workfront, in addition to the client invoicin

I'm able to link manually SharePoint folder by clicking Add new --> SharePoint Graph API. How to create SharePoint linked folder by Fusion?

Hi everyone,I’m trying to configure a request queue for a small new Design team in Workfront that can route incoming requests into a project or kanban boardCampaigns (projects Design Requests  (A Kanban board).Has anyone set up a request queue that allow the team to do both?The work types are in one form as a dropdown) I’ve not worked with Boards before and not sure if to make them an agile team if they want to use both. Any advice on the best way to do this would be great…..I don’t want to use fusion and the team are happy to convert manually but I'd rather the design request went directly to the Board.Thanks in advance!

Hi! I’m trying to map an array into the planning update records module, I run into a validation failed error when I map an array, but it works fine when I pass it as individual IDs. I also tried creating a JSON and updating the record with the planning Custom API module, but that also throws the same error. How can I go about this? 

I recently refreshed my SB01 and then discovered that all my Fusion scenarios connected to SB01 or Preview are broken. Has anyone else encountered this, and how do you restore the connections without having to rebuild the webhooks and api calls? 😭

It is just me or do the log files seem to be even slower to process and post? I am looking at a history screen with 9 runs that have yet to process the history - all of them are at least 15 mins old. Makes it hard to diagnosis issues... just sayin

Logged into Fusion this morning to see a new banner message: “Important Update: From April 15, your current login/password combination for Adobe Workfront Fusion will stop working as we complete our migration to Adobe IMS. Please contact your Adobe Admin Console administrator or your Support team to be assigned.”I currently use an email and password for a service account in our WF instance (created prior to our migration to Admin Console) to log into Fusion.  Does this mean I will need to be provisioned under my own WF account?  Also, most of my scenarios use a connection created for the service account.  Will those continue to work unaffected?  I’m assuming the change is purely for login purposes and would not effect existing scenarios or my ability to edit them?
