Adobe Workfront

Is it possible to give a WorkFront user access to certain functionalities (ex: Custom Form Builder) in the Sandbox environment only? We would like to test out some of functionalities without having access to them in the live production environment. Thank you in advance for your input!Sara @nevalee_hedges 

In our process, new projects are requested through a request queue.  Project requests show up in the "Project Requests" project.  One of our executives then converts the request/issue into a project using a template.The concern is requests/issues aren't always converted to a project the day they're requested.  Sometimes there's a lag of a week or more.When the project is created, the Project Start Date by default is the date the request/issue was submitted.  Generally at least a day has past by this point, so the project is already At Risk or Late, and warning emails are sent out to colleagues on the default resource list to notify them that the project is Late.I know our execs have the opportunity to manually change the Project Start Date when converting the project.  Is there a more automated way to do this?  We don't have fusion.Thank you!

Hello, Is it possible to change the name of a task column heading or a create custom heading to the schedule? Thanks! Andrew.  

Hello,  Fairly new to working on fusion but have been doing so now for around 6 months. I am currently working on a scenario that will create a new task based on the information that was on the just closed task with an updated future date. Essentially these are monthly and quarterly tasks to check on an automated project to assure they are working properly. My watch events trigger parameters are as follows: Record type: TaskState: New stateFilters:Name EQUAL Example Task NameAND Status EQUAL CPLAND connection user updates excludedRecord Origin: Updated Record Only I just put a random example for task name but the names of these task are unique in that no other tasks in our system would have these names. What is happening is that when I test this in our sandbox environment and I complete the "Example Task Name" in Workfront it is pulling in two different events for the same exact task closure. This is resulting in my scenario running twice for the same closed task an

In the Workfront management system, is it possible to search past reviewed proofs for keywords within the PDF rather than by a comment? 

Hello, Maybe a silly question...but I couldn't find anywhere online that made this clear. If my instance has used 99999/99999 (five characters) of the unique ref numbers, would the next ref number be 100000? (six characters)Thank you!

Is there a way to run a custom field report that is grouped by the section they are located in?   I have a custom form with multiple sections and would like to run a report that shows what custom fields are in each section. Thanks.

In a report column, how can I "hide" this row while still having it turn the whole row yellow when "DE:Multiple Cases?" is equal to "Yes".Every time I add usewidths=true and width=10 it removes styledef.case.0.comparison.isrowcase=true which is responsible for turning the row a yellow colorIs it possible to have a "hidden" row that changes the row color based on value Textmode Column Codelinkedname=directnamekey=Multiple Commits?querysort=DE:Multiple Commits?styledef.case.0.comparison.icon=falsestyledef.case.0.comparison.isrowcase=truestyledef.case.0.comparison.leftmethod=DE:Multiple Commits?styledef.case.0.comparison.lefttext=DE:Multiple Commits?styledef.case.0.comparison.operator=cieqstyledef.case.0.comparison.operatortype=stringstyledef.case.0.comparison.righttext=Yesstyledef.case.0.comparison.trueproperty.0.name=bgcolorstyledef.case.0.comparison.trueproperty.0.value=FEECC8valuefield=Multiple Commits?valueformat=customDataLabelsAsString Without widths manually set&nbs

Hi all,  Looking for some guidance on how you would approach.  Our leadership is looking for a value in a dashboard that essentially shows the "total number of pieces" we've touched in a given window -- i.e. year to date.  Our projects are not always a 1:1 representation of this; as in one project could contain multiple pieces.  How would you recommend we capture and compile this information using forms/custom fields to be able to sync up with a dashboard?  I don't have much experience with calculated fields, but I'm wondering if that could be a solution. Any advice is appreciated!

Since Adobe took over Workfront, it seems we’ve lost the ability to upload Animated GIFs for proofing. Previously, we could play the GIF and pause it at any point to add comments, but that’s no longer possible. Now, I just get the "Proof failed to generate" error. I came across a thread from 01/22/24 by KierstenKollins (community advisor), where it was mentioned that "Support confirmed there is a bug with animated GIF proofs and passed it on to the developers for investigation." I reached out a few weeks ago to check if there was a fix, but I didn’t receive a response. I’m still experiencing the same issue, and no one has given any updates. Does anyone know if this has been resolved, or if a fix is coming soon? 

What's the best process to change a user account when their email address/SSO log in changes? I can't change the email address in Workfront since we are using admin console. I don't have a good way to test this with extra SSO accounts and I don't want to mess around on the user's account. I'm hoping someone has had experience with this while using admin console. Can I update the user's admin console email by csv import, while keeping the user name as the original email address in the csv import?

I FINALLY successfully created a calculated column on my report. YEAH ME.Now, when I go to the grouping area - this column is not selectable to be grouped. WHY?Now, when I go to the chart area - this column is not presented for me to select? WHY? So I can see the data in the column on the details tab of the report - but I can't do anything with it. What am I missing or is this a known workfront limitation?

I'm looking to filter an issue report by issues pending approval by my team. "My team" could be my Home Team or one of my Other Teams.  Any help would be appreciated!

HiIs there a code for a report that someone can supply to find all active Users who don't belong to a specified group - whether it's their home group or other group? When I use "or" it doesn't work - because if they are in the Home Group and not Other Group it lists them. Thanks!

Curious if anyone has encountered an issue when an animated GIF file is uploaded to a Proof and the proof thinks the file is a static image file instead of playing it like a video format? We just encountered this issue today and I have submitted a ticket already with support to investigate, but am curious is others are having this experience.
