  • I might not entirely follow what you're suggesting, but I've thought a lot about our own group structure, so I'll share what we've done. We use the Companies field and Groups. Here's how it works: Companies: The vast majority of users fall under our actual company name. I create a new company when w...

  • I think it depends on what you need for historical data. When I overhauled our groups, I didn't know what I didn't know and just went for it. Fortunately no one came screaming in protest. That said, if you have a need to hold onto historical data, calculated custom fields can be super helpful. For e...

  • We tried to go this direction, so I've spent a lot of time thinking and planning for it. Right now we have about half of Marketing and two non-Marketing groups actively using Workfront, which means we have use cases for both siloing work and cross-COE collaboration.   User setup Groups are important...

  • I'm interested to hear what you mean by "technical debt." Having inherited an aged and loosely managed instance in the past, I learned a few things along the way. I'll start with the soft tactics: It's important to talk to your users to get an idea of what they use and don't use.Communicate to make ...

  • I agree with @Erika_Antkowiak to keep it simple where possible. I include topics and, after most of those topics, prompt for: DescriptionURLPrimary contactDocuments There are some topics that I associate a custom form with, especially around user management.

  • I, too, could probably use some clarification around what you're trying to accomplish.
