New Home: Color Code, Provide an Icon or Add A Widget for Late Tasks

Description:

Add a way to be indicated that tasks are late on the My Tasks widget

 

Why is this feature important to you:

Users need an easy way to see that they are late on tasks. Currently, there is no indication with color or an icon letting them know that task(s) are late. The old home had a Late grouping and colored red which made it clear to pay attention to the tasks. Currently, with our team working by the hour, it is very easy to miss late tasks and puts our projects at more risk to meeting deadlines.

 

How would you like the feature to work:

3 options:

1. Add red color to the background of the tasks and have them be shown at the top of the list for My Tasks widget

 

2. Add a caution icon (similar to team request tasks that are late) next to the due date of the task

 

 

 

3. Create a new "Late Tasks" widget so tasks live in their own space to make it quick and easy for users to find late items

Most definitely agree with this. I don't understand why there is not a visual on the New Home to indicate "Late" tasks. On the current "Work List", it is extremely easy to see which tasks are "Late" (grouped under "Late" and in red). Now, users will not have any visual indications and will just need to look at the due date within the Widget.

@KierstenKollins has there been any updates from Adobe on this? I have several users that would like this feature.

HI! Unfortunately, I have not heard of any upcoming updates for the home area.

@KierstenKollins sent a message to my account rep to see if they can push this along. I really miss how this used to display on the old Workfront home.
