Context: I have a report we use weekly to view which users are assigned to a project. We have 1 user assigned to copywriter, 1 user assigned to designer, etc. My report pulls in multiple users sometimes and causes confusion.Example: It pulls in 2 users for designer, when only 1 is the designer on the project because the second user also has a role of designer, but is not assigned to the designer role on the project. They are assigned to the project in a secondary role, they just also happen to be a designer. The need: I need the report to just return the single user assigned to that specific role on the project/task list. I do not want more than one user returned just because they are on the project but not assigned to that role.I’d like to avoid creating custom fields on a project and having to populate them manually for each project and then using those custom fields in the report, though I do think that is a possible solution. Text Code I currently use (works great when there is onl

Hello!  I managed to create a report to count the number of R1-R7 parent tasks in a report. However, when I look at it more closely, the parent tasks are repeating! I created a filter where parent tasks contain R1 OR R2 OR R3, etc., and I also grouped them by the parent task name.  Is there a way to remove the repeats, because when I check the projects, they only appear once!Grouping: group.0.linkedname=parentgroup.0.namekey=view.relatedcolumngroup.0.namekeyargkey.0=parentgroup.0.namekeyargkey.1=namegroup.0.orientation=Hgroup.0.valueexpression=IF(CONTAINS("R1",{parent}.{name}),"R1",IF(Contains("R2",{parent}.{name}),"R2",IF(CONTAINS("R3",{parent}.{name}),"R3",IF(CONTAINS("R4",{parent}.{name}),"R4",IF(CONTAINS("R5",{parent}.{name}),"R5",IF(CONTAINS("R6",{parent}.{name}),"R6",IF(CONTAINS("R7",{parent}.{name}),"R7")))))))group.0.valuefield=parent:namegroup.0.valueformat=stringtextmode=true What am I doing wrong? Is there a way to fix this?

In the new approvals, I get emailed about everything - every approved/changes/needs work, when it is final decision, etc.  I can see all that in my notifications in WF and it is burying important emails.I can’t seem to find a place to turn it off - any one happen to know?

Hi, I need to find a way to show active projects per month (or ideally, every two weeks) for 2025 and start comparing it to this year. IE, how many projects were active in January 2025 vs January 2026. Not how many projects started or closed, but how many were still active. This seems like it should be an easy report to pull, but I have not been successful. This information is now required by our leadership, so the report is essential. Thanks in advance for any help and advice!

Once Unified Experience is in place in our instance, are there any admin controls to change the icon menu view that users see? I see that Workfront Profile is now accessible from the account avatar. But the other menu icons and account links are very confusing and I would like to limit the user view to a lot of these. Is that possible? We tested with a non-admin user view in Unified Experience and the user sees a lot of information that isn't helpful to a non admin user.Thanks  

Hello,Is it possible to add the marked field as a column in any report? 

Hi everyone,We are currently having an issue with our dynamic boards where when we add a card from the board view, it defaults the date to the project start date. It will default it even if we have the date correct when we input the card - when we refresh it refreshes the date to the project start date. Obviously this is an issue. Has any one had a similar issue? If so, how did you fix it? Thanks!Sabrina

Hey hey Workfronters!I’m working on bringing a new team into Workfront and need your advice/expertise. What’s the best way to set up a task with a varying duration?For example: Task A has a fixed date. Task C has a fixed date. Task B needs to start on Task A’s due date and finish on Task C’s start date. The duration will flux as the fixed dates are edited. I’ve tried various predecessors and duration types but nothing is quite giving me what I need. 

Hi. I am unable to change or view the icons in my report's column cells. Although I added column rules to display specific colored icons when I select a particular option, the icons are not appearing. This may be due to an error in the column rules.

Hello,I have System Admin access, and I can see many projects that were not created by my group.Is it possible to make only the projects created by my group visible to me?Note: The unwanted projects are visible even though my ID was not added, and the project sharing option is set to "Only invited people can access."

I cannot identify converted requests in the new user experience, unlike in the old experience.

Hi all,  Has anyone experienced difficulties bringing non federated IDs, or IDs that are federated under a different organisation, into their admin console?We manage Workfront within our own admin console, but our parent company federates email addresses at the enterprise level. We now need to onboard additional users from a smaller company that also sits within our organisation, whose email addresses are not yet federated, and we are unsure what challenges this might create when trying to add them to our console.

Wondering if anyone has found a way / best practices to tie in the data from the Planning Record types to the Cards on Kanban boards.Would be great to configure Boards by Workspace, ability to see the name of the Campaign Or Initiative the task is related for starters.

Hi everyone,we have a client who wants a pie chart showing the breakdown of projects by one single-select field and multi-select dropdown field. Single-select field is straightforward. However, a multiselect field is a challenege as I can't use it for grouping in the chart.Has anyone dealt with a situation where a client wants to display report data based on a multiselect field?Your inputs are much appreciated!Best,Sara
