Hi all! I cannot find an answer for this, so thinking it isn't possible... Some designers + copywriters have been uploading a new standalone proof every time they produce a new version of their work, rather than adding a new proof version to the original file. Is there any way to combine/stack the existing proofs into one proof with multiple versions?Deleting the V2+ proofs, reuploading as versions over V1, and manually copying in markups isn't an option. I need a solution where the existing files remain intact. Thanks in advance!

Does Workfront product have any future plans to add 'Bulk Upload functionality' for uploading n no. of projects or tasks at a time via excel?or is there any other away for a end user to upload multiple objects at once in Workfront?except Import MS Project(which doesnt work for me) Kickstarts(this is for admins only)

Hello , I'm working on a usecase where I need to create a single proof by mapping multiple documents and hash files. I'm using create proof module and it is working when I map hashes and file names by using add item but it fails when I map them by getting hash files in a variable. While mapping I'm using the format of hash1,hash2. Let me know if anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks in advance!!!

Hello Team,I've noticed that within our company, one of our teams is utilizing Adobe Workfront, and upon reviewing our contract, it appears we only have licenses for the standard tier. However, I've observed that there is also usage under the 'Contributor' category. I'm aware that Contributors have a monthly cap on 'decisions,' and if this limit is exceeded, the user is automatically upgraded to a Light User for the duration of the current contract term. What I'm uncertain about is whether the 'Contributor' license incurs an additional cost or if it's included at no extra charge. Could you please clarify this for me? Thank you! 

We have a fusion scenario that mass generates unique job id tasks for us however we haven't determined a solve for how to mass add subs tasks(workflows) to these job id tasks. The job id tasks become the parent and then we have to add sub tasks or our templates. I've tried duplicating and copy features, but this isn't going to work for scale. We could have 300 job tasks generated for one project. Are there any helpful tips on how to mass add sub tasks to parent tasks? My next item would be to go back to our Sys Admin to see if they make a new fusion scenario that would allow us to add tasks along with the job creation scenario they already built for us. 

We have a text field that is on a custom form on one of our tasks (Tactic Delivery Date). I want to pull that text field info into a task level report for other tasks. So if the report is looking at the Copywriting task, I want to pull in what has been entered in the custom field on the Tactic Delivery Date task into a column on the report. Is this possible?

We have a task custom field that is open text where our team provides updates on the task/ project. I want to know if I can create a calculated field that pulls in what has been entered into that open text custom field? Thanks!

@juliewilsonHi.  How can I get into the peer to peer discussion at Summit? I just came across the posting. ThanksCS

I have a few users that are group admins that need the ability to log in as another user, in order to close out projects that have been left open well past when they should be closed. However, I have had zero luck in setting this up and I am at a loss. I've spent a lot of time looking for how to enable this feature, but everything has led me to the same answers and none of them work. My Group Admins are showing that they have the ability to edit users in their group (but they aren't able to log in as another user in the group(s) they admin or even see the option to log in as them). So, I updated it to allow them to edit all users, and yet they can only go as far as seeing the option to log in as another but when they type in the name of an existing user in their group, the search bar in 'Log in As' doesn't populate and the log in button is grayed out. Am I missing something in my Access Level setup or something?What I have the Group Admin set up as: This is what I see when I go to

We're looking at making some updates on our intake form for our marketing area and I'm curious what yours looks like, what questions you ask, etc. 

I'm currently trying to choose a pre-set task approval process that we have created but when I go to approvals on my task, the "use existing" is grayed out. I've recently used this so I'm not sure what I'm missing that is not allowing for my pre-set task approval processes not to show to pick from??

Hi all! We a have a user group who runs reports from within another program and would like to import those report spreadsheet files to a project in Workfront on a weekly basis. This sounds like a job for Fusion. Sadly, we don't have that as a resource. Is there another way to automate this process rather than manually grabbing the files and adding them to the project?

We are planning to discontinue JIRA and migrate all projects to workfront for historical data. We aim to migrate all attachments as well. Considering the absence of fusion and any integration tool, can someone suggest a way around for this.

I want to know if its possible to create a filter on a task report that uses a nested task from the same project?  Ideally the filter would filter out sister tasks of the nested task's field that showed the task not being 100% complete.  If that makes sense.

Need help with External Lookup field, we have a custom field called DE:B Number at project level custom forms. Now I am trying to get a external look up field at issue level custom form for users to map existing DE:B Number which is available at project level Any help would be highly appreciated thanks in advance.  

How to change the project document link to task level document link in a Workfront task level report? Instead of providing project document URL in user's dashboard, need to provide task document URL so that user can update relevant task document . 

Hi all, I'm trying to connect a personal goal (assigned to me) to an existing Active project. Are there required conditions for making projects available for connecting? I see a bunch but not the one I need. 

We have certain projects that need to be limited to only the users involved on the project. My problem is the projects are inheriting the permissions from the Portfolio. How do I prevent this? The projects need to stay within their respective portfolios, but the permissions should not match the Portfolio permissions. I thought I had this figured out, but now it's reverted to inheriting again. 😫
