H2 2024: Workfront Community Ideas Update

[#1]

Hello Workfront Community, 

Many of you may have seen some updates to certain Community Ideas over the past week, but I wanted to give a more formal update regarding our latest ideas review cycle. As part of our bi-annual Community ideas process, the product team has reviewed a new round of top ideas published over the past 2 years. Each idea has been assigned a product manager who will be responsible for updating their idea every 6 months. We’ve put this requirement in place to ensure regular updates from the product team and offer a glimpse into our implementation process. Please see the chart below for details:

If you have any questions or comments about a particular idea, please navigate to the respective idea thread and post your reply – don't forget to tag the PM Owner for extra visibility! Moving forward, I will aim to post an announcement like this alongside each bi-annual review.  

Don’t miss out on this opportunity to get your voice heard! You can engage with our Product team by publishing an idea, or by liking (i.e. voting on) or replying to an existing idea. Remember, ideas will be considered as long as they were published up to two years from the current review cycle.  

We hope that this reimagined process elevates your feedback in a structured and balanced manner. If you have any suggestions about our ideas review process or idea updates like this post, please shoot me a private message or send an email to Grp-WorkfrontNewsletter@adobe.com.

Hi @jon_chen , thanks for the update here. Question on Delivered status - should we be seeing it in production? For example I got excited about this one - Make Report 'Description' visible when reports are displayed on a Dashboard- which is marked as Delivered, but I'm not seeing this in our instance/reports I know that have descriptions are still not showing in newly-created dashboards. Or is this only live for canvas dashboards?

Hey @Deleted Account Thanks for your question. 'Delivered' status means it's in production, whereas 'Accepted' means the Product team has reached an agreement with Engineering to commit resources. In the latter case, our teams will do their best to provide an estimated timeline, though this is subject to change.

In the case of the idea you linked, it looks like Matt has confirmed that the idea is in production, with the nuance that it is only available in the Canvas Dashboard.

I plan to publish another blog which outlines what each stage means and what you can expect as a Workfront user shortly.

Any Adobe Workfront events going to happen in India?
