You could automate this with Fusion! Alternatively, one way to do it manually -- I had a report that I got weekly on Mondays of all the projects that closed the week before - you could manually email the requesters in that report. 

Hello! The easy (and hard) answer to this question is that there's no one way to use the Resource Management tools, and you might have to take a non-traditional approach depending on the needs of your team.  The cool thing is that one of our hosts today, @kierstenkollins, has shared her non-traditional approaches a couple of times on events, and they are truly inspiring!

I've never heard this being an issue. I've had calculated fields for a decade and never once has a Workfront update broken one. Maybe you are thinking of when you update the field in the form builder and tell it to recalculate the expression, but that also shouldn't break anything. I highly recommend continuing the course of making calculated fields that use other calculated fields.

Hey @brittanygarrett ! These are all fabulous areas to get to know in Workfront! I'll drop some resources here. My team also hosts a ton of free events every month (I would make sure to attend the Admin 101 sessions - we repeat them quarterly and there's one specifically on reporting) - be sure to check out the Experience League Events Page.

• Conditional formatting
  • Add basic conditional formatting to a view
• Milestones
  • Create a milestone path
• Wildcards
  • Wildcard filter variables overview (my most used are $$USER.ID, $$TODAY -usually with a calculation)
  • Intermediate reporting tutorial playlist
  • Use user-based wildcards to generalize reports
  • Use date-based wildcards to generalize reports 
• Text mode - I would start with conditional formatting things before diving too far into text mode. If you have specific questions, you can always search the community or post a question in the community!
  • Text mode overview
• Predecessors and dependency loops
  • Predecessors can get tricky! Are you nesting tasks under other tasks? That's usually where I get the most errors. 
  • This tutorial might help: Learn to sequence tasks

Hopefully that helps!

Corey you are not alone in wanting some more customization to Home. I'm hoping that more is coming with the 2026 release updates and if you post an Idea I will up vote it and share it with everyone I know to get more votes.

Reporting AI is not yet available but it has come up in every Beta meeting I was in earlier this year so just know the Product team knows how much we'd love to see this. Hopefully we hear something more at Summit. But in the meantime I'm so glad we can use the Assistant to generate and refine formulas for calculated custom fields.

Here's some more details on that: https://experienceleague.adobe.com/en/docs/workfront/using/basics/ai-assistant/ai-assistant-overview

Hello! I love using Milestone Paths for Reporting - mainly to create an easy to understand picture of where all of the in-flight projects are. The main piece of advice that I would give is to create milestone path phases general enough that they can apply to a large group of projects, so that you're comparing "apples to apples." One of the challenges with Workfront and Project Management in general is that sometimes everyone is using a different word or description for the same effort, so Milestones can give you a mechanism for consistency.
Now, the drawback is that you can only assign one Milestone Path per project, and can only use one Phase once. (So for examples, so you had two tasks that could technically fall under a Phase 1-Planning milestone, you have to pick just one to represent that phase. If that's the case, this might require you to rethink your Project Templates a bit.)
In terms of a Dashboard, I would build a specific report for each Milestone Path you are using. I had a General one, then I had one for IT/Development Projects, and then one for more Marketing/Creative Projects. So I'd create three reports, filter to the applicable projects, and then Leadership could focus on the ones that were most meaningful to them.
For the record though - Milestones didn't always communicate everything I needed, so sometimes I would tag Projects with a specific Custom Form, that had more nuanced fields - specific to the business units, strategic initiatives, timeframes (custom quarters), etc.- but this includes a specific Project Condition that was more meaningful to our org and that the PMs could manually set depending on what was going on with the projects. Having those reports on the dashboard filtered to those nuances really helped communicate a clearer message of the statuses of the phases and the projects.
I talked a little bit about this in a short video, so hopefully this helps a bit!

Hey there!  This definitely seems like a potential Support ticket.  The only thing that might be worth checking is to make sure that your users aren't deleting the issues after the project is created.  If not, definitely open that ticket! 

I would expand this to include the Priorities page - when a team is assigned that a user is a member of, this does not show up in the Priorities list for a user.
