We have numerous items (10s to 100s) with the same Planned Completion dates, but they bog down the calendar view. Is it possible to group on the day based on specific criteria? For instance, if I had 15 with the same Planned Completion Date and they are all a specific project custom form field, can I group and just have a single entry on the date saying something like "Specific Field (15)"? This would be wildly helpful for those of us with fewer planned completion dates and a ton more projects.
Hi guys,There used to be functionality in Workfront Classic to be able to bulk edit the comments on multiple projects, or just one. While I can still bulk edit multiple projects in NWE - the functionality to edit "just one" has been omitted. This is annoying to have to change the process and open projects in a new window to add an update.Cheers,Justin
The limitations in the Agile platform are hindering our performance. The entire platform needs to be revamped to compete with other Agile platforms. For instance, it is messy trying to create Epics (we have to open the "project object" edit the "project tasks" to create a parent task to mimic an epic. We should be able to assign points to stories such as 8 hours, and then separately assign points to the subtasks of stories. Instead, since we use 8 hours for stories, we have to use fractions (.25 for 2 hours, .5 for 4 hours) to assign points to subtasks. And the burndown chart is terrible and does not calculate the # of stories and # of stories completed correctly. Further, we can't even use Kanban and are HOPING the minor changes being made to that will allow us to figure out a way to use it. We cannot get an answer as to when the entire Agile module will be reworked and deployed.
We have several programs under one portfolio. These programs have multiple projects. For some programs, we do want the optimizer to score each project separately as it does today. For some programs, we want all the projects to be scored as one, or put differently, the program to be scored as one vs scoring all the projects in that program individually.
There should be an option for Project Owners to receive notifications when Issues on projects are completed, without the Project Owner having to be assigned to the Issue.
Please make the URL available for Project and Role views in the Resource Planner. Currently it is only available in User view.
Allow multiple documents to be selected at once and updates common values in the custom form, or do other actions besides the currently existing (delete, share, move, download)
We would like to be able to quickly "tag" our designated project team on big updates, status updates, key meetings, etc... We'd like to do this in the project update area, task area or on a custom field. Currently we can find no way to do this except to manually type in every single name & then there is great risk to missing someone. It is still easier to do this in our email system, where we can create a email group - but we really want our staff to use Workfront for these updates.
It would be beneficial for the calendar to display the duration between two tasks, today the only way to do this is to create a custom form and set the calendar to display the custom fields. This creates an additional step for project managers when the information is already in Workfront.
We'd like the comment box that appears when making an approval decision on a document be more useful. Right now, the box has a low character limit and isn't scrollable. USER CASE: the approver adds a few small changes, that the document owner needs to make, in the comment box. When double checking what they typed, they can't scroll or expand the box to see the full comment and/or to edit the comment before submitting it.
When attempting to click on the inside vertical slider to scroll through a list of projects from a report, the slider cannot be controlled. Clicking on the slider results in random movement away from the mouse icon. The only way to scroll through the list is by using the mouse wheel. When using only the mouse wheel to scroll through a long list, it takes too much time and effort.This was using the latest version of Mozilla Firefox version: 86.0Support didn't seem interested in resolving this.
Reports are used to collect projects that need a modification. Once a project is selected, the Edit, Share, Delete, and Export controls become available for use. After selecting some of the projects, the Edit button is click, you make your changes, the Save button is clicked, the edit completes, and all the projects are shown from the top of the list and none are selected.This means to do a review of the changes made, the user has to look for these modified projects individually.Workfront Classic would keep the projects selected so you could easily very changes made by just scrolling through the list of projects because they are still highlighted from being selected.Request: Keep the projects selected after the Edit has completed so verification can be easily done.
In a project, have any file folder structure created under a certain task’s Documents tab carry over to the main project’s Documents tab. (Right now file folders created under a task are not being mimicked in the main project folder).
Ability for any URL to be listed as a document in the Documents section (just as a document, not through the proofing tool), similar to the way you can link out to a Google docFor example, a YouTube link or a webpage link
When you’re using the @ function to add someone to an update and choose the wrong person, you delete the @ text but this doesn’t remove the person from being notified. It should remove them from the “Notify” section, as I’ve seen many people unintentionally included on update threads through this mistake.
Ability to comment on and link to folders specifically in the Documents, not just on individual documents
Currently the send sample email functionality is only available to users with the "approve email" permission. Send sample needs to be its own separate permission. When we onboard new users in Marketo we start them on a restrictive permission set so they can edit emails, but not approve anything. For their first few weeks they need to get their emails and programs reviewed before approving. Part of the review is sending sample emails. Right now they can only send samples if we give them approval ability.
Could the proofing tool have some old ways of showing the proof creator when proofs have the decision on them? It used to show on a 1-2 step way by clicking on the review, then seeing it on the right-side pane, allowing a quick view. Now there is about 4+ steps to get to even see the decision only.
It should not be possible to delete an Experience Cloud login that is linked to an analytics login, without FIRST deleting the Analytics login. That would prevent the situation we currently have where users' Experience Cloud logins have been deleted - presumably by an admin elsewhere in the business - when they still require Analytics access. The user then sees an error when they try to login, telling them their account is no longer linked to an EC login, and we have to re-add that user's Experience Cloud login.
The current Project Specific Dashboard does not allow for exporting the project status, key decisions & Issues, risks and milestones as one page. The user can only export individual sections which is not useful for reporting to management in a concise, meaningful manner. I am not an expert but I believe this to be a fairly straightforward fix via mapping to one export screen. If this is achieved, users would have a handy one page update to produce directly from Workfront as a PDF. Please prioritize this idea. It would be an excellent selling point for Workfront. (note, adding a small budget or expense field in the same report would be great)Thank you.
Description - When a variable has nested classifications (i.e. classifications that are more than 1 level deep), Classification Rule Builder is unable to operate on those nested classifications.Why is this feature important to you - It is common to have classifications that are nested. Furthermore, the Rule Builder's interface implies that it can operate on nested classifications, when in reality, it cannot. This is the biggest bug.How would you like the feature to work - When there is a rule that operates on a nested classification, then that rule should work in the same way as with top-level classifications.Current Behaviour - Nested classifications cannot be classified with the Rule Builder, even though the Rule Builder interface implies that it can be done.
We have seen many issues with copied projects that lead to incorrect/missing tasks, assignments, irrelevant documents getting carried over etc to name a few.Disabling the copy feature would help ensure all the projects created in Workfront are in sync with the latest enhancements and updates that are in place.
We have dashboards with multiple reports (e.g. arranged like quadrants). To provide end users an unique experience independent of the report result (row count), we would be able to set a fixed height for reports. Even more then we would be able to align reports placed next to each other.
Two situations: We have several reports which are used multiple on different dashboards. And we have reports with a technical name and would like to provide them to end-users via dashboards.Thus we would like to be able to define alternative report titles / labels for the individual dashboards. At the moment always the report name is used as title on the dashboard.
Hi Team, We have tracking URL, which is not enforcing HTTPS, upon clicking it is throwing 404 error . I understood from Marketo support guys that the Marketo tracking URLs cannot enforce HTTPS. They said "at this point in time we do not have HSTS flag for tracking links on the feature list yet". Hence, I am posting this suggestion on this idea page and request you to please review it internally and implement it. Regards, Rohan
