Re: Hi there, just reaching out to see if anyone working for a Creative agency is struggling with the Workload balancer when it comes to creatives viewing the work they have on? I am unable to find a simplified or visual view. - Workfront 18-10-2021
Susan and Marta,I've scheduled a Zoom call for a few of us who are struggling with the Workload Balancer -- it's today (Monday) at 3 p.m. (EST). If you'd like, I'd be happy to add you to the invite, please just provide your email address.

Hi Kevin, I'm going to set up a time to meet with Christie so we can discuss this challenge in-depth. I can include you in the meeting invite if you'd like. If you'd like to do that, just message me with your email address and I'll reach out to get everyone's availability.

Your question jumped out at me because we are a creative agency within a university and we are really struggling with the time it takes to make the Workload Balancer anywhere near accurate. Our creatives want flexibility and don't want to be expected to work on projects in prescribed blocks of time. If we assign a task for 5 hours and give a 1-week duration, Workfront spaces it out with 1 hour per day for the user. But creatives don't work like that. Our project managers are spending a huge amou...

Re: How do you handle a sole request with multiple deliverables? - Workfront 02-06-2021
Hi Jill,We've been in Workfront almost a year and have 4 project managers who each manage 20-30 projects on any given day. We adopted Workfront as a department (creative marketing department within a university) and there wasn't an option for them to adopt or not. Most of our projects are managed via waterfall, and they are pretty skilled at setting up projects with multiple deliverables and utilizing predecessors to manage the workflow. The problem we have is keeping up with the deviations to t...

Re: How do you name your marketing projects? - Workfront 24-03-2021
We use the reference ID number in WF as the unique project number. This is combined with a code based on the client we are doing the work for as well as the year the project was initiated. For example, KRA-21-102897. Our project managers add this code (KRA-21-102897) to the beginning of the project name.

Yes, I would vote on this as well! So annoying that the sender doesn't get the email like everyone else.

Anyone using Workfront for media relations (press releases, media pitching, etc.) at a university? - Workfront 04-02-2021
We have implemented Workfront for our marketing team and are now bringing our news team colleagues into Workfront. The marketing team has been a chargeback for many years so they are very used to tracking time and we have well-established processes for different deliverables so we were able to rather easily translate that to project templates and processes within Workfront. However, the news team has never tracked time and is struggling with the concept. We are trying to clarify their processes ...
