Automatically Refresh Calculated Fields When Source Data Changes

In Adobe Workfront, calculated custom fields do not always immediately reflect changes made to the source data used in their calculations.

This can lead users to see outdated calculated values until another action triggers the recalculation.

We would like Workfront to automatically recalculate calculated custom fields when their source data changes. At a minimum, recalculation should also be triggered when the user refreshes the browser (F5) or reloads the project page.

Expected behavior:
When a value used by a calculated field is updated, the calculated field should automatically display the new result without requiring additional manual actions or external automation such as Fusion.

This would improve data accuracy and the user experience while reducing the need to implement automation simply to keep calculated values up to date.
