I found that the “Predecessor complete” is showing Yes when a predecessor is not complete, here is an example of that on a project:Project = https://barclaysus.my.workfront.com/project/67ec012623b06b3f9d1b5d8eb0506c2d/tasksHere is a screenshot, where I brought in “Predecessor Complete” and “Can Start” Can you please help us understand why Predecessor Complete = Yes when it is not ready to start?Are we missing something on this one?   Thank you for your help!

Hi, is there a way to make a proof completely private, meaning that those who are not on the workflow can't open it? I can see that by ticking the 'Private stage' box will only suppress comments but none workflow members can still open it.  Thanks

Introduction to Workfront PlanningWhile project management tools can support with timelines, budgets, reviews and approvals, and measure how the work is getting done, these tools don’t facilitate the coordination and execution of strategic work. Moreover, they lack the ability to measure the impact that this work has on the customer experience.  However, Adobe Workfront Planning is an additional capability that Adobe Workfront offers. Adobe Workfront Planning helps organizations to go beyond the scope of regular project management capabilities, as it provides a single source of truth to connect disparate plans and data across marketing teams. The result of this connection is a marketing system of record that provides visibility into the marketing lifecycle from start to finish.Requirements for AccessYou must have the following to full access to all capabilities in Workfront Planning:A new Workfront package and license. Workfront Planning is not available for legacy Workfront packa

Is there a way to enforce proofing approval workflows on any proofs getting created within a particular task? We have a use case where certain task need to have a proofing activity for proofs created within that task.

Is there a way to customize what you see when you hover over the projects when you go into Hamburger menu > Calendars. We want to preferably see the request the project was converted from when we hover over the project on any date.

When a user is filling a form that has display logic, we noticed that when they fill in radio buttons and then go back to edit a field above, the fields they may have completed below would hide (as per display logic). However the responses to the questions are stored and this impacts reports and fusion scenario. It would be great that the data is deleted based on the display logic. Below is an example to explain what i mean;Question 1:YesNoQuestion 2:LeftRightLogic: display if 'Yes' selected on Q1Question 3YesNoLogic: display if 'No Selected on Q1If the user has selected 'Yes' against Q1 and then selected 'Left' against Q2 but then went back and updated Q1 to No - Q2 is no longer displayed but the response is still selected. They are unable to untick when its a radio button. 

Hello,I'm a bit new to Workfront.  Is there a way to automate the setting of the project priority status based on the scorecard results?  I'm imagining something like a score of 0-50 would be Low, 41-70 Medium, 71-100 High. Thank you!

I'm really curious about how some of you are using Workfront planning and reporting on the same? Currently, I see challenges with connecting tasks, reporting on record types in Workfront's inherent reporting and exporting tables out of Workfront planning. So I'm eager to see how it can be used as is in the most efficient manner. for folks new to Workfront Planning. Here is what I'm referring to - https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/workfront/using/adobe-workfront-planning/adobe-workfront-planning-general-information/planning-overview

For visibility within teams, we create custom reports for a worker's tasks. This is a task-based report that displays all tasks from active projects assigned to that worker. However, we've found that on the few times we accidentally assign to a role AS WELL AS a worker, that task doesn't show up in the report.  For some workers we can simply edit the report to filter by their name OR their role. However, we have workers who have common roles with others in their team, so this will not work. We're currently planning to just double check that we don't assign tasks by role, but I was wondering if there was a workaround.  Thanks in advance!

Hi all,We're about to move to managing new user set ups via the Admin Console, but when we do this, is there a way to cope a similar existing user so we don't have to fill in all the fields again?In non-admin console Workfront world, 19/20 times I would copy a similar profile, change the name and email addresses and that would mostly be it as the original user would be from the same team etc.But when we're live with the Admin console, we'll create the user with a licence, but do we then have to manually add the custom forms and fill everything in from scratch?ThanksMatt

I would like to build a report containing a set of reports, their result counts (how many projects/ how many tasks etc) along with the object type (Project/ Task/ Issue etc). Is there a way to do this in workfront ? I tried to create a report with Object type as Report but unable to find a field for the results count. Any guidance will be appreciated. Thanks.

Workfront’s robust reporting capabilities combine real-time data with customized dashboards for a powerful visual of how work is being done across the entire organization. The reporting tools and standard user interface is easy to use, however, with so many report options to select, it can be a challenge in figuring out which object type to start with or which filter or grouping to apply.  This week’s blog will focus on common reporting challenges across multiple objects with simple action items to give you the data you need.  RECORD COUNT OF PROJECTS Common Challenge: I want to see a list, or record count, of all projects that I’m assigned to. How can I get this information without running a task report, grouping it by project name, and then counting the number of projects?  Solution: Currently, there is not a native field within Workfront that can provide you with a record count of projects, so advanced text mode is required.

Hello, So I know this can be done using a calculated custom field, but I am trying to do this in the report itself without having to add a calculated field: displayname=External URL valueexpression=IF(ISBLANK({DE:Some ID}),"",CONCAT("https://www.google.com?id=",{DE:Some ID})) valueformat=HTMLThis does work functionally and shows a link to the external page, but it shows the entire URL. I am trying to add a Hyperlink here instead of showing the full URL.   I did try to set up an HTML Tag using the following:Column1: < a href="Column2:Above URLColumn 3">link text< /a > I also used sharecol to combine all the columns into one, but I had no luck! Wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions. Thanks!

Hello, looking for assistance on an issue report. We have a custom issue field SGWS | Short Product Name. Is there a text mode method where I can display the value of that field, but it's also a link to the issue?
