  • Support just got back to me: calculated field (calculated in-report via valueexpression) are a no-go on matrix reports. We have a couple of mandatory-on-all-projects custom forms, so I can just do the calculation to a dedicated field there and then use that field in the matrix report. Kevin Quosig

  • Curious about this myself; our WSA thinks martrix reporting doesn't like to do this because one of our reports with such a column keeps exploding the layout when adding a column with a calculated valueexpression. But I've punted to Support to see if they have any ideas. We will likely resort to doin...

  • If no one else looks into this in depth (no time here), some tips: Add columns to try out each part of the nest separately to see if any one chunk is a point of failure. So test each ISBLANK on it's own, each WEEKDAYDIFF, etc. Make sure each calculation works in and of itself. Then what I often do i...

  • Skye: I agree with your synopsis of the drawback; but I was also fairly certain if the user moves-off that view even once, and since it no longer exists, they will be stuck with the Layout Template's defaults after that? Maybe that works out fine for us because our project managers have multiple vie...

  • As Jason mentions, doing "or" with IFs involves nesting them. Sometimes is easier to do these in a text editor where you can bold or color-code each part of the nest so you do them correctly, or assemble each part of the nest separately and paste it altogether at the end. It can really be a visual m...

  • Honestly, I feel for you. Except for fields we need in Workfront for tracking, finances, and such we've been very tempted to go back to our regimented Word forms on more than one occasion for input briefs. Our logic is, if we're not tracking the field data, does it need to live in Workfront's custom...

  • Ryan's idea of custom CCS would certainly be an interesting feature add in alot of places in Workfront. For example, we end-up using Dashboards to create printable forms, but obviously that's clunky and has alot of visual fluff we don't need. Being able to add custom CCS to any number of objects wou...

  • Mixed bag here: I could see removing the vertical gridlines only. I like them, but it would reduce the clutter. Or in the same vein, I could see removing just the horizontal gridlines, same idea. I agree there is too much padding in each "cell"; could be a couple of pixels tighter and get no com...

  • We're getting frustrated by the idea that Tasks cannot be locked/frozen/etc. after completion and thus until the project is completed, users can keep logging time against the tasks (among other things). So this leaves the idea of a "completed" task at best vague, and at worst, a complete misnomer. I...
