Control Notifications for Document Proofs

Document Proofs do not currently “honor” the User Settings around notifications. This is an issue for users who need broader visibility to Document Proofs, but do not require detailed summaries. Is this something Adobe Workfront team can look into resolving? This resolution would help prevent unnecessary email disruption for our management/leadership team that need visibility to Document Proofs without the detailed email summaries.

More detail on case study: We have Workfront contributors that will view a monthly report that contains a proof link, where they can view a document proof. For these users, all User notification settings set to off. However, when they click to view the Document Proof, Workfront is adding them as a “Reviewer” to the Document Proof and automatically subscribing them to receive Daily Summaries for that project. We tested resolution by keeping them as Reviewer with Proof notification settings disabled. [However note: this resolution would be a challenge, as Document Proofs do not recognize Group settings, and would require us to setup each user as Reviewer with Disabled notifications for every project. This would be incredibly cumbersome for every project]  This is an issue for our process, as these particular users require unnecessary email disruption and do not need visibility to all the detailed comments in the Document proofing process / daily summary.
