  • I pulled some web archive links for some of the valuable resources off wf-pro Text Mode in Filters Text Mode with Collections Text Mode in Views You can probably navigate around and pull a few more archive pages, but these ones were the most helpful. I recommend saving some more common snippets to a...

  • How many legacy projects do you need to add the request queue to? I believe I have a solution, but it is a bit of a manual entry. You can duplicate your new project template with the request queue built in and then remove all the extra data:taskscustom datapermissionsanything not related to request ...

  • Understood. The hack-y workaround would be to add a task on project templates for "switch project to active" and make the first task a predecessor of that. Even If the existing notification rule was updated to use the canStart property on tasks that won't work because even if the project is not acti...

  • There is none for that rule specifically - I have put in a support ticket for this as it does not feel like intentional behavior. Workfront has "All Predecessor Task Completion to Task Dependents" which will send a notification, but only if the predecessor is on the task the user is assigned to. Thi...

  • Hmmmm, a few things to be aware of. Formulas need to be wrapped with expressions (sort of like Excel if you are familiar) There is a list of them here. You should bookmark You also need to use the proper names. Workfront has a few instances of confusing system names. For instance, planned hours is a...

  • I went and tweaked my old example: The "improvement" looks something like this:valueexpression=IF({role}.{ID} = "5d9d319f014448e648df203e89cffe81",{user}.{name}) you can find the ID of the role by adding it as a column on the view in the roles list in the admin setup menu.

  • I imagine there might be a report that checks for which template was used for creating the project - which is fixed in this case (which makes sense). To that point, It would be great to be able to restrict which templates can be used to make projects and which templates are only used by attaching to...

  • Are you on the classic experience? The new experience allows for drop downs to kind of simulate the typeahead experience. However, typeahead fields are used to reference objects in Workfront. Often with multiple key, values. If there's some reason you want to hack a list of options into a typeahead ...
