Re: Commit Dates are killing us - Workfront 21-07-2016
Doug - re: " conceptually, you believe that making that override global (vs allowing certain people or tasks to opt out) would be best?" Yes, most definitely. Commit dates don't mean a thing to us as we strictly use Planned Completion to manage our projects. Obviously, can't speak for everyone. Re: commit date report - we use a modified Working On tab view so that the Planned Completion Date shows up next to the Commit Date. It removes the need for yet another report and it's an easy way for the...

Thanks, Doug! This sounds like a great workaround and something that would work for us in the short term. I'm not familiar with UberCalc currently. Will definitely check back next week.

Re: Commit Dates are killing us - Workfront 19-07-2016
Thanks, Doug. I agree with Phil. We don't use commit dates at all so we'd want to get rid of them completely. Our PM's set the schedules / planned dates and our team just wants to know and manage their time based on that date, not the committed date. It causes more confusion than clarity for us.

Re: Commit Dates are killing us - Workfront 19-07-2016
Doug, definitely let us know if you find a way to address the outdated commitment dates on the My Work tab. Didn't quite follow what you're looking for the UberCalc to do for this but it sounds intriguing. By "address" I would be head over heels if it could update those dates automatically for us. I don't want to remove those tasks because they are still active/live, just out of date from the schedule. Thanks!

Re: I am looking to benchmark with companies that use the Agile tool to manage their marketing projects - Workfront 16-07-2016
I'm very interested to learn from others on this as well. In the near future we're going to pilot agile for our social content development but folks on the team are somewhat hesitant to try it for print. Experience from other creative teams in this area would be extremely beneficial for our business case. Thanks for starting this thread, Kris!

Re: Commit Dates are killing us - Workfront 13-07-2016
Hi Marty, I found a way around the On Hold projects on the Working On tab issue. Short answer, create a new status that equates with Dead. It tricks the system in to thinking the tasks within the project are no longer active. The off the shelf default status of On Hold still considers the project live/active and being worked on to my knowledge. Search the help area with the string Project goes "On Hold", Tasks still show in My Work List . Here's a link to the post I found - https://support.workf...

Re: Commit Dates are killing us - Workfront 13-07-2016
Yeah, that's how I understand the Calendar functionality as well...planned vs. projected. I was referring to the My Work weekly calendar view though. That view only populates commit dates to my knowledge. I have my group's Working On tab set up so they can see both the planned date (what's in the schedule) and the date they committed to. They are able to change the commit date directly within that tab, which seems easy, but typically forgotten and seen as an added, unnecessary step. #NoMoreCommi...

Re: Commit Dates are killing us - Workfront 12-07-2016
Just stumbled upon this thread. We face/struggle with the same thing. The working on calendar is one of the best tools for users but we can't realize its full potential because of these sticky commit dates. A while back I submitted a product enhancement request to give system admins the ability to toggle this feature on/off. Hoping these rumblings you speak of are true, Katherine!
