Re: autonumber field - docket numbers - Workfront 06-06-2019
I don't see why this has to be either/or based on the 2018-08-20 support reply.I also think it was a silly idea to accommodate one customer to the detriment of others; why not keep both?Keep the Reference Number as any other system GUID and unique across objects system wide, makes sense even from a backend perspective; having a unique key is useful.But still have a field type or secondary parameter that would be, say, unique across objects (Project Number separate from Task Number).OR, have a sp...

Re: JIRA integration - Workfront 05-06-2019
Greg, I was rather hoping I was just being a n00b on this; hard to believe the Jira "integration" is so simplistic. Fusion is not in the budget; at least for now (we haven't even deployed yet, still implementing). Thank you for confirming though, much appreciated! Kevin Quosig

Duplicating Requests - Workfront 31-05-2019
Workfront will not allow a Requestor, unless they have fairly high privileges (we don't want Requestors to see the resulting project, for example), to duplicate their own requests.We have fairly long intake forms, in some cases dozens of questions. There are also parts of the forms that for a specific requestor are the same answers every time for maybe 1/3 of the questions.What our requestors have done pre-WF was to use the system we have to duplicate an existing request as a basis of a new requ...

Re: Typeahead Fields and Time-off Visibility for Assignments - Workfront 31-05-2019
Josh, I'm hoping by filters you mean in the field definition I can set-up that the Typeahead will, for example, "show only users with Project Manager access" or "show only users with a role of Designer" or things like that. Kevin Quosig

Re: JIRA integration - Workfront 20-05-2019
Hopefully I'm not threadjacking here, but I have a related question: We're looking at the Jira integration and it's a bit confusing and documentation on behavior isn't clear to us. If we have multiple projects that a user is assigned to in Workfront, and matching multiple projects in Jira, can Workfront and Jira still keep it straight and how does it make the link between the projects in both systems? So far it seems like the link is user-based, in which case we could only have a single project ...

Re: How are you using Company? - Workfront 17-05-2019
We're still implementing/deploying, but our plan was to use a Company for our inhouse agency, which leaves open other "Companies" being groupings of external users and to keep "vendor lists" (since Workfront can't do this sort of address-book functionality natively). Not sure if that is normal or not... Kevin Quosig

Re: Save a Request prior to Submit - Workfront 17-05-2019
Yeah we developed a hack-around for this with our implementation specialist, but it's messy and our requestors are not happy. The lack of "save as draft" is going to leave our requestors groaning during adoption and may force us to really cut-back on using Custom Forms for intake (and go back to attached Word docs). The sooner we can make this work, the better.

Re: How many people would be an IDEAL WF TEAM for your department? - Workfront 15-05-2019
Internal creative agency of over 175 people. There is no "dedicated" Workfront position, but we divide and conquer. We have a small Operations team dedicated to tech management and tasks (DAM, workstations, Workfront, cost tracking, eComm asset management, pre-corporate help desk support, training, documentation, etc.). From that team: I should be the primary WF admin, but because of the way HR/pay related data is not cordoned-off (since I do not have need-to-know access for contractor pay), I w...

Re: Multiple approvers - Workfront 15-04-2019
Jill, you make a valid case; makes perfect sense. I would think that would be confusing as heck to track, but makes sense on the "why to do it that way." In such an instance, we'd probably break it into multiple routings rather than try to have such a sub-segmented routing. Would make accountability easier to track. But we're in a fairly regulatory/legal/accountability heavy environment too. Kevin Quosig

Re: Multiple approvers - Workfront 12-04-2019
If 7 people approve and 2 reject, and a change is made to accommodate the 2 rejected, wouldn't the other 7 people need to see it again to re-approve it with the change? Kevin Quosig
