New Workfront Experience - Editing tasks

[JonathanFarr]

I have just had my first experience of the new experience for the first time.  To say it is a retrograde step is an understatement.  There now appears to be no option to remove all assignees from a task without manually removing everybody by deleting them and it doesn't have the option to assign a different number of hours to individuals on the same task, thus creating extra work in having to duplicate for each assignee if you want to give them different number of hours.

This really breaks a huge part of our work and processes.

This update will break things for us too. @kautuk_sahni, could you please take a look and reach out to the product team?

Old experience has an option for 'allocation' and 'assignee role':

New experience doesn't:

@JonathanFarr  I'll share this with the relevant team. I'll get back to you as I hear anything from them.

i can echo this - the extra step inablility to edit Planned hours when converting the task from an issue is more than problematic. 

What would be the justification OR benefit for restricting this functionality?

Hi, are you also experimenting the following situation : when editing a task, going to Assignments and adding planned hours and user - clicking save, but the information is not saved.

thanks,

Bianca

No, but I don't have access to the planned hours box in the new experience when I do in the current experience.

[biancalina]

yes, you will have to switch to the old experience, and then the assignments box will appear and you can edit planned hours, but when you click Save, the data entered is not finally saved, it's supposed to behave like this ?

thanks,

Bianca
