Adobe Workfront

Hi all, I am using a calculated field to provide a clickable, concatenated Workfront Document Project Link that users can click when it is attached to a document. Currently, the URL’s environment is hard-coded as “my”. I know that $HOST is available for External Lookup fields and can retrieve the environment dynamically, but I’m looking for a way to both build the URL and retrieve the environment value dynamically. Currently showing: What I would like to achieve (dynamic environment): By any chance, has anyone had a similar use case or thoughts they could share? Thanks!Wyatt

Based on current client feedback, I am requesting we have at minimum Portfolios/Programs - if not all work Objects - added to the “Recently Deleted” function in Workfront. This is causing some issues as we automate processes clean up Workfront. Would love to see this added to the product roadmap!

I’m pretty sure this isn’t possible but, I am trying to combine 3 different calculated fields on the same custom form into one chart. The fields are Metric 1 On-Time, Metric 2 On-Time, Metric 3 On-Time and the calculation spits out either Yes or No once dates from the source fields have been filled out (not all 3 metrics will apply to every project).The goal is to determine the overall percentage of “Yes” vs “No” across the entire portfolio of projects, inclusive of all 3 metrics.

Hi, I am onboarding a  team on to Workfront proof. They have not used it previously so I ‘m wondering if anyone can recommend the best training materials or successes of onboarding user groups by roles. I’m anticipating creating training guides but any input would be greatly appreciated 

My entire company wasn’t receiving email notifications all day yesterday from Workfront. Just wondering how many other folks were having this issue? Seems to be resolved as of this morning but this isn’t the first time that I don’t receive a clear status on what is down within the system. Sometimes the system is running slow, sometimes proofs don’t want to work, and then we have days like yesterday when we don’t receive email notifications. 

I noticed an issue on the Home Dashboard where users outside of the Design Team can only see projects with a Completed status in the Status column. Previously, they were able to view all projects they have managerial, view, or contributor access to if it was shared with them, regardless of status, so this seems to be a change from how it worked before. And I’ve checked each Access Level and this is even happening with certain people who have the Standard License. The dashboard indicates that a filter is enabled, but even after selecting Clear All several times, only the Completed status continues to display. There is no filter enabled even though it says there is.The Projects I’m On view should show visibility across all project statuses we’ve set up in the system, but it doesn’t appear to be functioning as it did in prior months.Could someone please take a look? I’ve attached a screenshot for reference. Thank you! 

Thanks to everyone who joined today’s workshop, 10 Communication Tips in Adobe Workfront to help system administrators drive better alignment and user adoption, with a strong emphasis on setting clear communication channel guidelines. This is a great extension of the End User Communications Cookbook, so if you haven’t checked out the customer-submitted examples, download the guide here.  Highlights of the workshop included:System-wide messaging through the Announcement Center Flexible notifications via email, Slack, and Microsoft Teams Two-way communication using request queues Automating updates using Workfront FusionThe session also showcased tools for enforcing governance and efficiency such as advanced validation logic, scheduled report deliveries, and (for Ultimate plans) business rules, along with reminders of available community resources and upcoming Workfront events. Download a copy of the slide deck and watch the on-demand recording below.  Slide Deck PDF  Workshop Recordin

The requestor would like to see at the project level the resource hours month over month by FT employee versus contractor.  My issue is the custom field that delineates the two is on a user form.  What can I do?

Below is the current text mode for the Planned Hours column in my project report and how it is showing when I run the report. Is there a way I can update the code to have it show 13,798.75 (which adds a comma and removes the word 'Hours')?? The Actual Hours column shows the format I want without changing the code (added this image below as well) but I can't seem to figure out the code to get the Planned Hours to show the format I want.  aggregator.displayformat=minutesAsHoursStringaggregator.function=SUMaggregator.namekey=workrequiredaggregator.valuefield=workRequiredaggregator.valueformat=intAsIntlinkedname=directnamekey=workRequiredquerysort=workRequiredvaluefield=workRequiredvalueformat=compoundviewalias=workrequired  Thanks in advance!! 

Any suggestions for how to view recent post/questions in the Workfront forum?  The sort seems to have a  “recently active” sort option but no “recent” option.  There are a handful of posts from today showing, but everything else is a month or more old.  Where are the posts from the past few weeks?The new community format is underwhelming to say the least.

Whenever I clicked the video's timeline the video is starting over rather than jumping to that frame in the video. Anyone else having issues? !--startfragment>

I can't find where my saved draft request is in the new request experience. Anyone know where those are?

Hello, Can you please confirm whether it is possible to rename the default “Status” field label at the Project and Task levels?

. I’d like to report on how many revenue-generating hours we spend vs non-revenue hours. For most hour types, I can change them from “count as revenue” or not. However, one that gets used a fair bit, is “General Overhead” which is set to “counts as revenue” (unintuitively, if you ask me) and I can’t change that one. Our users are posting non-revenue time to it and I’d rather change the setting than change their behavior, since I agree with them, General Overhead doesn’t sound like billable work.

Is there a way or a field to Track the Status comments in a project report columns?

Hello Community!We have been asked a lot recently and in the past to give exports of forms so we can review and collect feedback on fields. We have a report to get the fields from a form or multiple forms BUT have not been able to figure out ways to get it to populate in the same order as the forms.  There is just an ongoing annoyance that we cannot get an export into excel that is in the same order as the form itself. We then need to either just give a stakeholder the data dump and say “figure it out” which they are not always thrilled about, or we spend A LOT of time doing it manually. Is there ANYWAY to do this better? Fusion, text mode, etc.? 

Hi all, I'm trying to run a report with the number of unique proofs approved that were authored by a creative team. So far I'm seeing multiple approvals of the same proof, and I'd like to eliminate multiple approvers and versions of the same proof document. The filters I'm currently using are for the team (proof owner ID), dates, and document version >> proof decision contains approved. Any suggestions would be immensely appreciated 🙂 Thank you! 

@jasonbarron, in the quarterly update meeting yesterday you mentioned the new approvals feature allows for any user added as a reviewer to see reviews waiting for them. Has this function been developed yet for proof? It would be extremely beneficial to be able to run a report on this to add to their dashboard.

I have "Time off" and company holiday calendars created where my team can add their PTO and I can add company holidays.  I would like the workfront project tasks to "skip" over/blackout a PTO date for that employee that indicates a PTO date.  And also for tasks to "skip" over and account for company holidays.  This fuction seems to work for some of my team but not others.  Is there specific steps that I need to take to have this function reflected for everyone?  I was trying to locate some type of guide or tutorial on this subject, but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for.  Any guidance would be appreciated!  

I have a user who when receiving a request is able to convert the request to a template but not a blank project. What setting do I need to update for her to have access?
