  • Hi, I was looking to create a similar discussion, so thought I would add it to yours. We currently have some basic CSI reporting setup in Workfront. It is a set of custom fields on a custom form which represent questions which we store a numerical response to. The custom form is attached as an I...

  • Hi Polly - that's interesting and could be very useful for us. I have a couple of queries: I know that if you have a project view or report and include the 'Template Category Name' field then you can see the multiple custom forms listed which have been attached to the project. My understanding o...

  • Hi Angela. Count me as crazy too! Just a couple of days ago, I logged an incident with Workfront Support, querying exactly the same thing! We implemented Workfront starting around September 2015. My understanding up until now was the same as yours - i.e. that we should assign people whilst in a ...

  • HI Greg, I think your feature request would be useful in some cases. Specifically, you want Workfront to calculate the remaining duration of the chain of tasks, even though they are in progress, and on the assumption that all tasks will be worked on by the same resource who can't complete them all...

  • Hi Greg, I found out through desperation and experimentation. I had a huge number of tasks to migrate from another system and I wasn't going to do it via the UI. I think you're right about why the Duration didn't set on your subtasks. That actually explains how it set the duration automatically ...

  • Hi Greg, A predecessor would usually be used to indicate that the successor task can't start until the predecessor is completed (i.e. Finish-to-Start constraint). Obviously there are other constraint types, but that is the most common one. In your example, it sounds like there is not really that...

  • Hi Greg, To set the Duration, you need to put the 'H' (or 'D' etc) in the 'setDurationType' column, and not in the 'setDurationUnit' column. Not very intuitive but it works for me! When doing this, it automatically sets the Planned Hours to the same as the Duration, which may be fine for you. I ...

  • Hi Linden, Apologies for the delay as I have been on a good long holiday... I do like your idea of being able to have multiple milestone paths on a project and then selecting which you want to use when reporting. Whilst not quite the same, I actually submitted a feature request for a Visio-sty...
