Adobe Workfront General

In some instances, work from a timeline task on a project with a default schedule set to exclude weekends shows up in WLB with time assigned to over the weekend.  This causes a discrepancy between the project schedule and the WLB resourcing.  I understand that for some reason this is intentionally set up this way, but there should then at least be a setting in the WLB to exclude scheduling work over the weekend.

Description: Would like to be able to take a card on a board and convert into a project similar to the way we convert a request to a project with a template. It seems like this would have already been a feature.Why is this feature important to you - Create efficiencies and decrease manual processes. How would you like the feature to work - The same way a request gets converted into a project. Current Behavior - If there is a card on a board and it is determined it should be its own project, you have to manually create a project and then close the card. @suzyf @rudyha1 @hollyse @annapu 

In a Workfront Kanban board, the API calls for 50 items to be displayed when the board loads. In order for more items to display, a person needs to select "Show more work items" each time that the page is reloaded. I would like the API to call for a higher number of items (potentially 100) each time the board loads. This will help team members using the board from needing to click "Show more items" each time the board loads.

Ability to Change primary assignments on objects

Description - Provide an ability to move issues to ProjectsWhy is this feature important to you - It provides an adiditonal way to keep work movingHow would you like the feature to work - Exact same functionality available on webCurrent Behaviour - Functionality not available

Integrate Planned Hours and Actual Hours fields with the task/issue percentage complete bar and iteration burn down chart.  This is important because it would show meaningful data metrics as opposed to hypothetical, relative, manually-set percentages complete. When the Planned Hours and Actual Hours fields are added to the task and issue cards, as the task and issue owners update the actual hours spent, the percentage complete bar is automatically updated based on the initial Planned Hours. Optimally, there would be 3 standard Agile task and issue fields to accurately show the effort against the work and to capacity plan:Planned HoursActual Hours SpentHours Remaining The current behavior relies on the task or issue owner to calculate the percentage complete based on what they think or feel.

Description - With the new functionality for "Enable faster Workfront release cycles," it would be ideal to have the ability to opt into the fast release in lower environment(s), but keep the quarterly release in your Production environment.Why is this feature important to you - For new feature testing purposes, to offer feedback to Workfront, and more time for planning of communications to end users.How would you like the feature to work - Similar to how it works for Production; if the checkbox for the "Enable fast release process" is checked, in a lower environment then it should allow for the install of the new release functionality to be installed during the next release in that respective lower environment. If not checked, then the quarterly cadence of release would follow.Current Behaviour - There is no way to opt in to the fast release cycle in SB01 or SB02, but keep the Production environment in the Quarterly Release cycle.

A coworker has requested a custom form containing several custom fields,each with multiple checkboxes in a single row within a custom form,to look like this: Check all that apply:Category #1: ☒ Historical Reports ☒ Historical Graphs ☒ Scorecard ☒ My DashboardCategory #2: ☐ Historical Reports ☐ Historical Graphs ☐ Scorecard ☐ My Dashboard He has also specified a radio button field with five options.They should be displayed thusly: Tomcat      Constellation     Tornado      Hustler[and your pathetic page has mishandled the radio buttons!] In the implementation of this, Workfront displays them one button per row,resulting in this: Tomcat Constellation Tornado Hustler[Again, the radio buttons have been mishandled by your page.] These horizontal layouts are much more readable and is less wasteful of vertical space,since the current default behavior allows only one checkbox or button

Our marketing team all valued a previous feature that has now been discontinued - this was the ability to tick a box on document proof updates that added everyone tagged as approvers "Ask for Approval"  - it was a fast and easy way to provide our stakeholders with updates on the documents and have them added as approversWhy is this feature important to you -Saved us time - was easy and quick to use 

Description - Create the ability to customize the Groupings of Tasks / Issues on Boards Why is this feature important to you - We track work by Iterations and it would be helpful on the Boards feature to group work by Iteration, or even display/group work by portfolio.  The current options are too limiting How would you like the feature to work - Provide the ability to create customs Groups- similar to the Group feature on reports Current Behaviour - The only grouping options today are Assignee, Tags, None

Description - Allow a text or number field to have specified field formatting, such as phone number ### - ### - #### or allow input of numbers being between value 1 and 100Why is this feature important to you - Makes data entry less prone to errors but allows you not to have to enter all the possible values in radio buttons or dropdown fieldsHow would you like the feature to work - On custom form on text and number fields have additional button that allows logic to be added and formatting. This would need to then be carried forward to reporting so display the values correctly too (including in textmode new valueformat allowing for the mask to be added)Current Behaviour - If its text its text, if its a number its any number

This is edited since they already had the original idea in the works.Description: The "new"-er idea is to allow for a consolidated Kanban view for Tasks and Issues in a single list.It's important because: Since most users don't care about whether the "thing I gotta do" started out as a task or an issue, it would be beneficial to see them all in one list. It's so much easier to prioritise and organise when you can see everything together.How I'd like it to work: a choice on the board itself or in the project nav bar to include Tasks and Issues together. Or, make that the default and add an indicator on the card telling if it's a task or issue.How it works Now: Users have to go 2 different places to see tasks and issues even on the same project Old-er original idea:Description - Put a "Boards" view icon on the Issues page of projects.Why is this feature important to you - A lot of organisations use issues extensively in projects. Also this would be great for request queues.How would

Would love the capability to simply transfer hours from one project to another. For instance, if hours were logged to a project that is then split into 2 projects, would like to copy/move the hours when copying/moving the tasks to the new project.  We do report on hours per client per quarter/month, we need to make sure we have the right hours logged to the right project/client on the correct dates. Which sometimes requires modifying how the project from original setup.It would be amazing to have a checkbox alongside the other checkboxes (Constraint, Assignments, etc.) that pop up when you copy/move tasks. This checkbox could labeled "Hours". Another solution could be: within the Hours section of a task or project, the ability to check the hours you want to move and click "Move to" from a dropdown or similar.Currently I have to log in as the user who logged the hours, remove the hours they logged from the original project, then go to the new project and log the hours to the s

It seems that if someone leaves the company, but are on history reports, we have to change their password and lower their license level. If we can report on deactivated people that would be amazing because then they keep showing up when doing assignments or in the resource planner - especially when you already have 50 Michaels to sift through.

Download PDF comments for use in InDesign Streamline the editing process, efficiency, and accuracy when making edits. I want to utilize the feature in InDesign that allows the user to Import a PDF with comments and automate the process of incorporating the edits without copying and pasting. You can only copy and paste from the Proofing window

Description - Enable the "mini details" feature to all user profiles Why is this feature important to you - Currently, this feature requires admin-level access; we do not want to change all users to admins to have this basic feature How would you like the feature to work - when you select the "mini details" arrow to expose the status of user progress through the proof, it works without an elevated profile. Current Behaviour - Only admin profiles can expose the user status when the "mini details" button is selected; this feature was available to all profiles a few weeks ago.  Now it's much more difficult for users to check the progress details.

Description – When an account is deactivated, it should be hidden from relevant sections, i.e., Teams, Groups, Reports To, Direct Reports, and any other similar sections/fields.Why is this feature important to you – Automatically hiding them upon deactivation would provide a more accurate representation of active users and present a cleaner UX. It is convenient that accounts are not removed from the system, as it allows for easy reactivation and retains all their previous sections/fields.How would you like the feature to work – I would like to have a filter to exclude deactivated users where filters do not currently exist (see screenshots).Current Behavior – In certain places, it looks as if the users are still active (see screenshots).

In Workfront when you download a mutli-select excel, the output is sporadic and doesn't export in any realistic manner, like sorting in an ASC fashion.  Obviously, there are ways to mitigate this within excel, but it ends up adding time to the admins as most of our end users would not complete the follow up needs to break up fields just to sort in a proper fashion.  This really isn't a user friendly approach and would love if Workfront would just export in sorted fashion driven by the report.  

Description -Reporting on fields that have display and skip logic in custom forms would be great functionality for system admins. When managing and updating custom forms it can be a challenge to Identify all of the logic that might also need to be reviewed and revised. Currently the only way to review display and skip logic is by color coding in fields that can be time consuming and easy to miss with custom forms that have many fields.  

Colour Management : It would be a massive advantage to be able to view and check proofs with a view to printing requirements.For example: Check CMYK colour separations, cutter key overprints and check 4 colour blacks (registration). This is a important part of the checking and approval procedure before printing literature.The feature could work the same as the print production view in Acrobat.Really interested in your alternative solutions.

Description - When using Workfront's "Workfront Proof" (Proofing Tool) to open up Proof Links, users have to put in their email id and password as well as validate their identity with their mobile device via text or call, every time they open a proof. This request is to prevent the validation for every proof that is opened or once it's validated, it doesn't need to be validated again.Why is this feature important to you - This feature will help the users to complete their tasks as fast as possible and would not be time consuming.How would you like the feature to work - When the users open a proof and they are asked to enter their email id and password and also, validate their identity and they click on "Don't ask again for 90 days", it should save their details so that they do not need enter their details again when they re-open the same proof.Current Behaviour - As per the current behaviour, the users have to put in their email id and password as well as validate their

Description -We are requesting an enhancement in adobe workfront proofing tool. When proofing, the user should be able to hover over a link and workfront should display a popup of the linkWhy is this feature important to you - this feature will reduce steps and effort as the enterprise continue to adopt workfront for email proofs How would you like the feature to work - While proofing in workfront- user can Hover on tracking code and pop up appears orClick on tracking code link and a pop up window appears with the destination location listed Current Behavior - User has to download proof and manually test links out side of workfront

Please add the ability to make notes on logged time from the Home or My Work views. Currently, in order to make notes on logged hours, the user has to have admin access to Timesheets & hours. It's also an extra step for the user to have to click on the task, click on the Hours tab, and then log their time from there. It would be nice for the user to be able to make notes on time logged without having to navigate away from the Home or My Work pages.

Description - I think it would be helpful to have EPS files load in the proof tool. It would save us the time of exporting files to PDF and, as an Adobe product, I think it would help with integration between other design applications.Why is this feature important to you - workflow convenienceHow would you like the feature to work - I'd like to be able to view EPS files in the proof tool again.Current Behavior - EPS files not able to be viewed.

Description - While creating the proof, even the proof creator should receive the proof notification.Why is this feature important to you - With a personalized proof notification, the evidence maker will be verified.Current Behaviour - Once the proof is created, proof created won't receive the notification
