Hi everyone! I've collapsed down a list of ideas that we have upvoted within our internal team and would appreciate your support too! Managing Tasks/Approvals Prevent Task from Being Marked as Complete If Required Fields on Custom Form Attached to the Task Are Blank Routing Custom Forms for Approval or Print to PDF Link Proof and Task approvals Task getting auto-approved when a Proof or Document associated with the Task is approved Managing Proofs Proof reviewer / approver delegation by current reviewer / approver Add/Edit Automated Proof Workflow from Inside the Proof Viewer New Proof: Change default from basic to automated Automated Proofs: Add option to create automated proofs as default or expose to API UX/Other/Admin Ability to export Custom Forms "https://community.workfront.com/discussions/community-home/digestviewer/Ability%20to%20report%20on%20issues,%20tasks,%20and%20projects%20together%20in%20one%20report" Ability to report on issues, tasks, and projects together in one report Allow screenshots in updates/comments Ability to convert the field type to another field type Make Custom Forms Appear as Tabs Implement Quick Pins for Custom Forms for shortcuts to Layout Templates New Home: Bring back Recent Updates I want to be able to set a default View/Filter/Grouping from Layout Template Ability to move from Sandbox to Production Mandatory logging of time on task Out of Office auto replies to directed updates Populate empty profile pictures with user's initials James Hill

HI, Please vote this idea up: https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360028770453-Need-list-of-Proofs-user-needs-to-Review-not-Approve We need Workfront to finally add back a list tab that shows a user the proofs they need to Review even if they are not an approver. The Document Version report needs to have a filter that will show users the proofs they are on as a Reviewer. This is a big gap that is still causing significant confusion and head shaking among my users. Thanks! Steve Steven Hirsch The Estee Lauder Companies Inc

https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360028755733-Pinned-UpdatesWorkfront We had an idea of "pinned updates" in a projects update stream. Our creative team users don't have access to edit the Project Details/Description and can get key information from stakeholder meetings that get lost down the stream as the project progresses. The idea is to be similar to Twitter, where you can "Pin an update" to the top of the update stream. For example, this could be a change in scope with the deliverable being created. Please vote if you like the idea! Justin Enzor Insperity

Hi, another Idea for you all to upvote: "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360004641114-Add-workdays-as-a-date-based-wildcard">Add workdays as a date-based wildcard . You currently can filter only on calendar days. So, if you're trying to report on projects that are due in 1-3 business days, for example, you have to include a prompt that asks you "what day is it?" so that your filter can account for intervening weekend days. Which is not ideal if you are building a dashboard for executives ("Really? The system doesn't know what day of the week it is?"). Please upvote--thanks! ~Eric Eric Manning Language Line Translation Solutions

Would anyone else be interested in Custom Form Fields that are lists/collections? In other words, instead of forcing users to enter a list of related information into a paragraph text, let them actually enter it in as a collection that can reported on and displayed as such. https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360027830293-New-List-option-for-single-line-text-fields-in-custom-forms Sean

For advertising/creative agencies and retail, I'm sure this functionality would be useful? https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360028790973-Custom-Date-Ranges-on-Gantt-Charts A way to put your promotion/event dates on a Gantt chart so you can see those along side (or instead of) the production dates.

Hi Sean, I agree...so much, in fact, that we created: our "http://store.atappstore.com/product/ubergantt/">UberGantt Solution, which can draw such date ranges from special tasks within the project intended to highlight such promotion/event dates (and can be configured to also show those along side the production dates), and our "http://store.atappstore.com/product/pdfcalendar/">PDF Calendar highlights the due dates of particular tasks in a standard calendar layout, and now our new "http://store.atappstore.com/product/editorial-calendar/">Editorial Calendar is a hybrid between the two, laid out like a Gantt Chart, but showing the text of the tasks of interest (in whatever "channel color" you wish) in the column that represents its planned completion date (see example, below) I invite you to look at each of them, and would be interested to know which seems like the best fit, in your case.
