Adobe Workfront General

When running a report that has prompts, you have to rerun the report each time to click on a hyperlink to a project, task, issue, etc. because the link does not open in a new tab. Yes you can us browser controls to open in a new tab but as soon as you forget you have to start all over. Not a great user experience.

It would be incredibly helpful to have a "Like" or "Agree" button in WF Proof. If one reviewer leaves a comment, others who still need to review/approve and have the same opinion can click Like or Agree rather than having to repeat the same sentence/statement. This functionality was available in other system I've used and was the #1 rated feature by all approvers.

When loading large scenarios, after it first loads you can zoom in and start working....clicking on modules etc, but then after a while (5 to 10 seconds maybe) it then snaps back to a fully zoomed out view, requiring you to again zoom in and find that area again. This seems to happen after it has gone through and done some kind of post-load check of all the modules.It's not so noticeable with smaller scenarios as they load faster, but on bigger scenarios it can really slow you down and cause frustration when you go in and out of edit mode and this keeps happening.

It would be useful when creating a variable in Fusion if you could define its type (string/array/object). Currently if you want a variable to be an array you need to set it to be an empty array, or do a merge function including an empty array. This is not intuitive and not as user-friendly as if you could define the type.

Currently when a user has manage access to a project, they inherit manage access to any issues in that project - note: they inherit access, they do not get their own manage access block in the Sharing on that issue, even if they entered that issue and/or they are the primary contact on that issue.But if that issue is then moved to another project, their inherited access level changes to whatever access they have on the new project. They do not maintain their manage access to an issue that they created.We have a team who creates issues in a set of project their team owns. They gather information on those issues and when they are ready for our production team to work on those issues, they move the issue over to campaign projects that our production team owns.Once those issues are moved to the correct campaign, they then need to change the status so an approval process begins. But since they've lost the access level they had from the original project, they can't change the status.

I created a report to identify a specific type of document. With that list of documents, I need to apply a custom form to those specific documents for reporting purposes.Currently I am applying the custom form to the documents individually. As you can imagine this is a time-consuming tasks.Allowing to bulk edit documents will definitely save me a lot of time.

Currently you aren't able to upload zip files which is a big issue when dealing with certain files that need to stay linked to function (HTML, mechanical print files, etc.). Can we remove this limitation?

Right now, to my knowledge, there isn't a simple way to mark a task as complete when you are in a project. In your home area there is a button to mark as done and we would love that feature when you are in the project itself. You either have to edit the task and mark as complete which, or you have to type in 100%. The way it is now creates more work to just mark something done.

I am configuring WF for an international NPD team. They have project managers that work in specific areas of the business (i.e. Lighting vs. Wiring). It would be great if the Portfolio or Program manager could start a project from a template with a specific PM Role Defined, and then have it provide the list of potential PM's that meet that specific role. Project Manager Lighting, Project Manager Wiring. Instead of just the role Project Owner, we could put in the template Project Owner Wiring and then when the project is being created, it would show a list of Project Owners that corresponded to that particular job role. Instead, they are going to see the entire list of potential PM's...

When adding a calculation/formula to a custom field the "?" hover over shows the formula. I do not need my users to see this data. Would like to see this removed (or a function to remove it) from the view when hovering over the ? on a custom field.

My current client has projects that need to be able to plan work based on job roles that are in a specific region, specific business line and specific job role. (A project that needs to be executed in Hungary, for a XX product line with a XX Resource)... The projects needs to be able to identify the roles on a task for planning. If we had job role pools, we could create a pool of job roles specific to a region and business line and those roles would be available for the PM to assign to tasks in the business case development and task assignments during planning. Otherwise, we have to create a complex acroynm scheme to identify the specific job role so that when we are doing a more strategic planning of resources, the allocations are appropriately reflected, without a lot of overhead to maintain the list of job roles.

Right now even with "print only my view" it prints all tasks even if you are only displaying parent tasks. Would love to just print Gnatt chart view of Parent Tasks

A Project approval should have the ability to notify non-approvers as well to keep them informed of status change. Would also be helpful to notify the person who triggered the approval when the approval is complete (approved or not)

I would like to be able to add a filter to a report with repeating delivery so that it only sends out if the report contains information. For example I have a report showing issues which have been waiting for approval for more than 1 week. Sometimes there are no issues overdue, so I do not want Workfront to send out an empty report.

Currently the SPI Index does not function properly for tasks that start later than intended. For example, if I have a Baselined task of 1 week duration (40 Planned Hours) that was supposed to start 2 weeks ago but hasn't started (0% Complete and 0 Actual Hours). The SPI=0 (correct). But if I change the Start Date to today or greater (which is what a PM should do for tasks that didn't start on time) the SPI changes to 1, indicating the task is on time (it's really 2 weeks late already). It should be 0 until a % Complete is entered and then be calculated on the original start date. It appears the SPI doesn't use the Baseline when calculating Planned Hours Scheduled to Date. It is using the current (new) Planned Hours Scheduled, which is technically incorrect. From your Help Screen: SPI = (Total Planned Hours x % Complete) / Planned Hours Scheduled to Date* *If Planned Hours Scheduled to Date = 0, SPI = 1.

It would be nice to have a "Select All" for multi select dropdown lists. It can be extremely time consuming if you want to select a lot of values.

It would be great if you could see more than 7 projects at once in the Enhanced Analytics flight plan, or if it would display all the projects in the image export as it does in the Excel export.

It would be helpful if deleted Programs could be restored from the Recycle Bin, mirroring the ability to restore Project and Document objects. We store information on a Program's Custom Form and that data is currently lost when a Program is (mistakenly) deleted.

We have the ability for users to delete issues and tasks with logged hours turned off. However, this does not stop a user from deleting the entire project, issues and tasks included. We would like the ability to disable project deletion if any of its objects or the project itself has logged time.

I’m only seeing the ability to control the right side panel via the settings in Setup > Interface > Layout Templates > Customize Home. We would like to have admin ability to customize the Work List on the left side as well. Specifically, we would like to be able to customize the sorting of the work list. We would prefer that the work list be sorted according to “Task Start Date” instead of “Task Completion Date”. The vast majority of our tasks span multiple days, so it would make more sense for us to be able to sort in the Work List by when the task needs to be started.

Because my team only uses planned completion dates, it would be extremely beneficial to have the ability to view planned completion dates on both the My Work calendar strip AND the task home page.

Currently, the ability to modify a task's assignment allocation is only located when you edit (three dots > Assignments > edit allocation > Save) which adds extra clicks and time. We have group a users that would greatly benefit from a small change to be able able to edit from the task's overview as well, for quick management.

I want the ability to hide the 'new task' button. We do not want tasks added that are not part of a project.

We have received a request to add the Filter component to the All Timesheets tab.This will allow Line Managers and Power Admins to filter a list by custom metadata or standard Workfront parameters (for example, license type).Whilst the users can achieve this in the people or user sections, we feel this could be a valuable enhancement for the timesheet module where you may have several thousand employees on the system and need to narrow down the user within the Timesheet module directly.Best regards,Christian

Currently, project owners can delete custom forms that have been added as part of the template. This results in loss of data that cannot be recovered. While there is a warning message when a user tries to delete, there needs to be an option for the system admin to disable custom form deletion.
