Adobe Workfront

Anybody know why a job from 2024 is showing up suddenly on my CMO’s approval list? To solve the mystery, I checked the filters in our Pending Approval Requests by Due Date report and would love to know how to exclude non-current proof versions.  Thank you!Jenny Williams

Hello,I have System Admin access, and I can see many projects that were not created by my group.Is it possible to make only the projects created by my group visible to me?Note: The unwanted projects are visible even though my ID was not added, and the project sharing option is set to "Only invited people can access."

Hello!  We do gate approvals in Workfront.  Our approval flow is set up to send to Manager A and B, and if one of them approves the task, it’s approved.I have been asked if I can make a report that shows who approved each gate and when.  I have the date figured out, and I found a way to show both Manager A’s and Manager B’s names as “Approvers”, but I can’t figure out a way to pull which manager actually hit the approve button.Does anyone have any ideas?  Thank you!

We track the number of projects for KPI. Is there a way to filter for when a project status is changed to complete  so we know the date that was done.

Wondering if anyone has found a way / best practices to tie in the data from the Planning Record types to the Cards on Kanban boards.Would be great to configure Boards by Workspace, ability to see the name of the Campaign Or Initiative the task is related for starters.

Hi Everyone,I created an Assignment Report to view current projects for a selected users are working on. The report works as expected for admins, but I’m running into an issue the a non-admin user is unable to view theProject >> Line of Business columnIssue The report includes a column: Project >> Line of Business When I (admin) view the report, the Line of Business values display correctly When a non-admin views the same report (no filter/view changes), the entire Line of Business column is blank  What I’ve already tried Verified no filters, prompts, or views are changing between users Used Text Mode to reference the Project field directly Set Report Settings → “Run this report with the access rights of” an admin user → The column is still blank for non-admin users I appreciate any guidance or insight on this issue!

I have a proof report that shows me everything I need except the planned routing due date. I have the field attached to all of our issues and projects, but I can’t find a way to get it to show on the report. Anyone have an idea how to do it?

The current max update object limit is 100 on Workfront’s api calls. I’ve ran into the issue where there are more than 100 hourids to attach to a billing record. Updating the billing record with the next batch of 100 hourids just overwrites the initial 100 hourids on the billing record. Updating the billingRecordID field directly on the Hour object via API returns a success response but does not reliably associate the hour with the billing record which is a bug so can’t go that route either. It seems that the only way to get it somehow working for the future is either they fix the Hour/billingrecordID update or they increase the max update object to 500 or something like that. 

Will the current workflow of proofs (making mark-ups, sending for approvals, etc.) be discontinued and the new workflow of the document approvals be the new process soon? We really use proof approvals because it's the best process for us instead of one-off approvals. Thanks so much!

I would find a great deal of value in a webinar/Q&A session with Adobe Product Managers tailored to understanding the pivot from the standard Proofing experience to the Unified Approvals experience. Seems to be a wide range of considerations and no hard deadlines on some required changes, but documentation seems “thin” and some of these changes need measurable documentation and process re-training in my organization. There is even documentation on how to use Unified Approvals and Proofing together https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/workfront/using/review-and-approve-work/document-reviews-and-approvals/manage-asset-review-and-approval/doc-approvals-and-proofing but not much that speaks to when existing Proofing functionality would be phased out completely. Can this type of information event be prioritized by the Workfront team?

Hi WF Community!I’m looking to add red highlighting to values in a project’s task list, under the Planned Completion Date column, when the date is less than $$NOW and the task’s Status is not equal to “Complete”. I was working with leftmethod in text mode on the Planned Completion Date column, but still not getting the result I need.  Here’s my text mode: displayname=Planned Completion Datelinkedname=directnamekey=plannedCompletionDatequerysort=plannedCompletionDatetextmode=truevaluefield=plannedCompletionDatevalueformat=atDatestyledef.case.0.comparison.icon=falsestyledef.case.0.comparison.leftmethod=AND(({plannedCompletionDate}<$$NOW),({status}!=”CPL”))styledef.case.0.comparison.lefttext=truestyledef.case.0.comparison.operator=equalstyledef.case.0.comparison.operatortype=stringstyledef.case.0.comparison.trueproperty.0.name=bgcolorstyledef.case.0.comparison.trueproperty.0.value=eac6c9styledef.case.0.comparison.truetext= Anyone know where I might be going astray?  Thanks!Nick

Here record count for bottom x axis is default name or we can change this ( no of projects) by any method. 

One of our teams would like have their task start and end dates update based on the predecessor task completion. If the predecessor task is completed late, they’d like to see the start and end dates for their task update to reflect the completion date of the predecessor task so that they can prioritize their tasks accordingly. For example, if the predecessor task is due 2/9 but not completed until 2/11, they’d like the start date of their task to be 2/12 instead of 2/10 (when the task constraint is “As Soon as Possible”). This would not be a universal rule but only applied to specific template tasks and/or for specific teams based on the way that they work. They do have a report that sorts tasks by Handoff Date, but this does not fully meet their needs.

Verifying On-Time Delivery logic in Workfront: same-day date comparisonsWe are implementing an On-Time Delivery KPI where work is considered on time if the Actual Completion Date is the same day or earlier than the Planned Completion Date.However, even when both dates appear as the same day in the UI (with different times), comparisons using <=, DATE(), DATEDIFF(), and DATENOTIME() sometimes return late.Is this expected due to Workfront storing DateTime values in UTC?What is the officially recommended approach for calendar-day-based SLAs in Workfront?What is the way to compare only date without time ?

I need to see a report of Tasks and Requests that do not have hours logged by every assignee on each task/request so that we can see what Tasks/Requests are missing hours for which assignees.There’s a thread here that identifies a way for an individual user to see their own Tasks that have not been assigned hours, but I can’t seem to find anything that shows how to see multiple users who do not have assigned hours. Any advice is appreciated.

Hi,I have created a calculated column in an Adobe Workfront report using text mode, and the column displays correct numeric values (0/1) in the report grid. However, this column does not appear in the “Values” dropdown when configuring a chart for the same report.What I have done Report Type: Project / Task Report Created a calculated column using text mode: The column correctly shows: 1 for on-time 0 for late Attempted to use this column in: Pie / Column / Gauge charts Different “Summarized by” options (Average, Sum, Count) Issue The calculated column does not appear in the Chart → Values dropdown. Native numeric fields and custom number fields do appear correctly. Questions Are calculated columns (text-mode columns) supported as chart values in Workfront? Is there a known limitation that prevents calculated columns from being used in charts? Is creating a custom calculated field on the object the only supported way to chart this data?

Hi! I am trying to create a calendar that shows user’s open tasks (individual and group tasks).Users want to exclude tasks where they’ve selected “done with my part” even if the task is still open.Is there a way to filter for this in the calendar report?Thank you!
