  • Jill, There is a way to make this work for you in Workfront but I feel it will be too hard/confusing to try to explain here, and I also feel that I may be missing a few key pieces of information. If you would like, we can get on a screen share and spend 20-30 mins going over what is happening and wh...

  • Dan, Everything in your scenario is working correctly and as designed. You also set it up correctly, although, you don't need to enforce the predecessors for what you are doing. The key for what you are trying to have happen is to be looking at the "Projected Dates". "Projected Dates" will move base...

  • Jennifer, Have you looked at the Task Constraint? In order for predecessors to work correctly to change the dates, the best Task Constraint is "As Soon As Possible". If the Task Constraint of a task is Must Start On, Must Finish On, or Fixed Dates, the predecessor will be ignored with respect to cha...

  • Skye, This is a great question and I would say a potential oversight regarding the assigning of layout templates when viewing the user details. I like William's suggestion and I wanted to share another option that I have been doing that seems to work pretty well. Maybe there is a combination or thes...

  • Yes, if you use predecessors correctly. I do this all the time with clients. Here is a screen shot of how I do that. 2 things to realize when looking at this: - First, what I do is have the first task be the driving task (only because it is easy to find and train people on which one to change). It c...

  • Jill, Did you try an Assignment Report or a Work Item Report that brings Project/Task/and Issues into one report? The only problem is you will still have separate columns for Issues versus Task information but it will be on one report. I hope this helps! David DAVID A. TAYLOR Founder & Managing Con...

  • Monica, Which set of dates are you implementing your plan against? If you are implementing against the negotiated rebaselined dates then I would create the initial plan using the planned dates (predecessors, durations, the works!), snap a baseline, and then change the planned dates (by modifying dur...

  • Catherine, The only option I can think of is assign the asset task to the by-asset freelancer and on that task enter an expense for the amount charged. This gets added automatically into the total cost of the project so you won't be losing anything. You can also have expenses added in a template if ...

  • Shannon, In the new home area, after selecting a task on the left side and all the details open up on the right side, click in the update area, and the following opens up and you can see the option for selecting the commit date, to the right of the notify field.

  • Kundan, It sounds like you are wanting to "Enforce" the predecessor relationship. You can do this in Workfront by putting a lower case "e" after the predecessor. An example would be, task 1 is a predecessor of task 2 so the predecessor for task 2 would be "1e". Please let me know if I misunderstood ...
