Blueprint Released: Offboarding | Departing User Dashboard

It happens to every system or group admin: one of your users is leaving the company, taking on a new role, or needs to switch groups. How do you find everything they own or are working on in Workfront so you can transfer ownership of their objects or reassign their work? Well, we’ve built a dashboard for this purpose! Released as a blueprint, this dashboard contains 13 reports to help you find, reassign, or otherwise manage the objects and assignments associated with a user departing your purview of Workfront. 

A few things to note:  

  1. The reports on the dashboard have been built to support the needs of a wide audience and it’s likely that you will need to change filters, views, and groupings on some reports to better meet your organization’s needs.  
  2. You may not need all the reports, so feel free to remove them.  
  3. All reports have tags in their descriptions for searchability: 
    • #offboarding 
  4. Please note that for active project, task, and issue approvals, we’ve found that a report is not the easiest option for reassigning them from a departing user. Instead, log in as the departing user and go to My Updates. From there, choose the Delegate approvals button, pick another user, and this will reassign them all at once.   
  5. Finally, we recommend making copies of these reports before editing in case you want to go back to the original reports. 

This dashboard is now available to install from your blueprints. Learn how to install this dashboard from blueprints
