Delegate proofs

Avatar

Level 5

When proofs are routing through ProofHQ, those who have time off in their calendar and submit a delegation of their work should be able to do so for proofs as well. At my company the only approvals that are sent are those through the proofing process and when people are on vacation they would rather not have their inbox filled up and have their decisions for proofs be delegated to someone else.

We need the ability to delegate approvals to someone else when someone is will be out. Our workflows are very time sensitive. If the person responsible for approving is out the workflow will stop unless another person has been manually added in. This can be time consuming and is not very efficient.

This also follows on to the other issue within Workfront where you can 'delegate your approvals' but this only applies to projects, tasks and issues. It does not apply to proofs that you are included on and therefore confuses many users within our company. They automatically assume it means all approvals.


Its a shame this keeps on being raised but no solution as of yet.

Our organization desperately needs this feature. Our old tool had this option and it has caused extra work to be needed to not include reviewers on the proof when they are out of office.

To build off of delegating proofs, it would be fantastic to have the feature to delegate proofs from Workfront instead of having to go to your proof profile to do so. Also clearer language within Workfront is needed where it says to 'Delegate Approvals' is needed. It needs to be clear if you're delegating document approvals, proofs or both.

this is great - just keep in mind that not all approvers have worker licences or above, some have regular reviewer licences, so how would proof approvals delegation work for these non-workers profiles?

Hi, all. Just wanted to provide a quick update on this idea. This idea is part of our third phase of the WF+Proof Integration initiative. No timing yet, but as always, we will update once we know more. Thank you.

Hey! It would be so useful to have this. It is the 4th year we wull use WorkFront this summer and I as an admin have to know everyone´s holiday schedule in order to update the workflow templates accordingly. Proofs are missed in the gap and it is easy to understand that is not efficient at all. Any higher prioritization would be appreciated as we have talked about this with the Production team for more than a year.


Thanks,
