Program Calendar View

Is there a way to view Programs in a calendar view (without purchasing Workfront Planning)? Is there a way to create a canvas dashboard or something?

Hi @shannabo - One way I've recently found to hack in a MoM calendar view is to create calculated fields on a custom form by month with the text mode below. Then, I pull this calculated field into a column on a report and use the Advanced Options to say if it equals yes, input a color. The result is a makeshift Gantt-style calendar without planning. Not as pretty, but free!

 

Field Name: October 2025

IF({DE:DATE FIELD} >= DATE("10/01/2025") && {DE:DATE FIELD} <= DATE("09/30/2025"), "Yes", "")
 
P.S. - Wish I thought of this months back

@shannabo Yes. When you create a calendar in Workfront, click on "Add advanced items" and then choose projects. Then add Program ID as a filter and create one selection for each Program in your instance. That's probably the best way if you have a limited number of programs.
