Hi Vic Your 7 step plan is exactly what I was hoping to find here. It is excellent direction which we can use in the real world. I so appreciate your time in writing this out. I have copied it and am going to use it in my trainings with the staff who manage their deadlines. In fact, I think WF shoul...

In our company, Designers do not own the project or the proof. They are only working with the Project Manager who provides all the direction and information on the proof and therefore need to be able to manipulate the comments so that the designers don't have to read through all the back and forth, ...

Nick That is what I'm thinking too. When you tinker with the plan you lose the original schedule so you can't analyze after where it all went wrong. I would prefer if the plan was locked in stone and then the Projected Dates operated like the plan (ie you can adjust durations to make a tighter sched...

OMG I'm trying this now. If this works you will have saved my life, my children's life and all of humanity from here to eternity. Thanks!! Jill Ackerman

Hi Thanks for all the feedback. You are all describing what I thought, but I have many people who have to manage deadlines for projects, but are Worker licenses. They can't change the Plan Dates. Sigh... Jill Ackerman

I like this idea of creating a flag status that says "ignore this comment thread" but it sort of doesn't work in the scenario I'm trying to lay out whereby we have one button that the designer/author uses (the status flag where they can mark a comment as "done" or "need more info"), and a separate b...

Oh no, not the answer I was hoping for! I hope to get more insight into how people work around this. Workfront has such positive feedback, this basic thing seems to me to be a huge barrier that I feel like it can't possibly be right. Jill Ackerman

Hi Thanks for responding. We are trying to use the flags but they flag the entire comment thread, not the comment within the thread that contains the approved decision. If you have a discussion thread 10 comments long, how does the designer know which of the comments is the final decision without h...

we are new to Workfront and I'm hoping to get insight into how people manage due dates within projects. We work toward very hard completion dates that cannot shift, but the 30 tasks within a project are always early or late, which shifts all the projected due dates based on the durations from the pl...

Hi We are new users and are struggling a bit with how to best use ProofHQ in the real world. We often have long brochures and catalogs with many people who are reviewers all over the world. The way we work is the designer uploads the proof but is not responsible for trafficking it around to all the ...
