Adobe Workfront General

We need the ability to have the Project Manager or others prioritize tasks that are in a team members "My Work Area". Would like to add an additional field to the My Work/Working on Tasks area that would allow team members to prioritize tasks that the layout could sort on. Usually we need to prioritize multiple tasks that need to be completed on the same day. The prioritization comes from someone else besides the person doing the task. USE CASE: Currently My Work/Working on Tasks can only be sorted by Commit Date, My Priority and Project. Most studio operate where a priority from a team member such as a Project Manager or Resource Manager determines the order work needs to be completed within a day or even an hour. Currently, if a task on a project requires immediate action, there is no way to organize it under "My Work/Working On" view so that it gets prioritized other than the user doing it themselves.

People will enter issues on projects that are on hold asking to have them reopened but we are never notified about them because the on hold status prevents a notification or the issue moving into the team request queue.

Project managers can complete tasks and projects even if there are custom forms on some tasks that have not been completed. You should be able to flag tasks with custom forms or color code them. Or you shouldn't be able to complete the project if there are open custom forms.

When converting an issue to a project, if a document was added to the issue and proof comments were made, those comments do not carry over to the project. The only workaround for this is to manually move the document from one object to another. Ideally there would be a setting at the template level where you can choose to copy or move documents by default when a resolving object is created.

In other systems, there is a database table that let you do role assignments on a project automatically based on a client or product. This will eliminate the Project manager from having to go into every task and assign a user to the role. USE CASE: A database would be maintained that would know based on a client value, which users are assigned to each role. For example, If the client is "Nike", we know that the role of Creative director is always David, Designer is Tony, Copy Writer is Matt. When the template loads the project, the roles are auto-populated based to project manager selecting client = "Nike". If the PM selects client = "Adidas", Then the Creative director is Marc, Designer is Brian, Copy Writer is Michael. and the roles auto populate based on those values. This will also help us with our routing on queue topics in that you can base your routing from a team that's associated with selection on a data field. For example, if we choose

Customer using the API to access a proofing window, would like a way to be able to annotate a proof in a specific language (which would normally be accessed through the user's personal settings).

I often think of tasks while I'm away from my computer that I would like to add to a specific project and not just add it to my personal list of tasks. So, please update the Mobile App for iOS to enable the ability to add/edit a task so it can easily be associated with a specific project.

I have team members in different countries, or different places in the US with different holidays. I would like the ability to have a calendar linked to a particular user or team --- permitting multiple calendars per project vs 1. I cannot load all holidays into a single calendar -- that would not produce the correct results

I receive notifications via email and the notification center/icon in the system. It would be nice if there was a way to sync where I read a notification. For example, if I click to an update through a notification email it would automatically remove the notification from my icon/center in the system. Then I wouldn't waste time in my notification center on updates I've already seen via email.

We need a new user role that has access to read everything in Workfront but cannot update anything. This is similar to the system admin user except that this user cannot edit anything. This is needed for our system integrations with Workfront. It's possible to also use this for executive managers who only need a read-only view of Workfront.

Allow System Admin the option to change default registrants from Requester to Reviewer access. There are more internal users than external users and every time access level needs to be changed.

It would be great to be able to use emoji's in the update fields. Something fun that makes the user experience a little better.

Would love to have the ability to have customized project numbers specific to my company that run in a sequential order. Example: project number would start at a specific number that is predetermined by company. At minimum, it would be nice for the Workfront project numbers to populate in a sequential order instead of randomly as they do now.

Enable the ability to export individual charts or reports or dashboards directly into PPT.

User management between WF and PHQ does not seem to be sync'd up. The WF user profile doesn't show the custom Permission Profiles we've set up on the PHQ back-end. Also would love the ability to bulk edit users in PHQ backend.

Hi, Just looking for the ability to copy timesheet profiles in order to quickly copy and replicate new timesheet "templates". Something like "copy from existing timesheet" - similar to how we can copy from a new user profile instead of having to create a brand new one each time. None of our users use the default timesheet profiles/options so in order to create a new one, I have to start a new timesheet profile and also open an old one and just manually copy the timesheet options by having 2 windows open. Thanks, Al

We need the ability to truly archive items by moving hem to a safe zone - like a cloud server or partitioned area of our own storage - rather than simply "hiding" the file in place

It would be nice to be able to restore deleted documents in Workfront. I can do it in ProofHQ, but it will not link it back to Workfront.

Enable a bulk-edit feature for hours, e.g. changing the hour type of several hours at once, or re-assigning hours from one project to another

Provide reporting on licenses: what has been allocated and what is remaining based on contract.

There is currently no way to see pending document requests, either through a list or report. I have to manually keep track of the document requests that I have sent out. Can there be a way to pull up a report or a list of any document requests I've sent out? In addition, can there be a notification on the end user that let's them know someone has requested a document from them (similar to how approval requests show up in the update feed). The end user only has the system generated email to know that someone has requested a document from them.

On the "All Requests" tab, it seems there should be a way to actually see the date a request was submitted so we can how many requests are coming in on various days. Currently, we can sort by "submitted on" but you can't see what date it was submitted on without having to open every single request on the page.

Provide the ability to categorize PTO, perhaps using a drop-down adjacent to the date itself, and color-code the PTO dates based on the category. For example, I'd like to be able to distinguish between PTO associated to "Vacation" from PTO associated to "Training".

Add a “Select” checkbox to the blue grouping bars in a report, allowing the user to easily select all records in the report only under a particular grouping.

Currently, there is no way to add a calculated column to the view that is a factor of values contained in other columns in the view (e.g. create a column “C”, that is equal to the value in “A” divided by the value in “B”)
