Notification when Assignee Schedules Time Off

When a project is current and a team member assigned to a task and updates their time off calendar, project timelines get updated with no notifications sent to the project owner. Can you provide the possible solutions.

  1. Build in functionality to notify the project owner the the project time line has been updated. Indicated which task have been updated.


Workfront Edit: This idea originally asked for 2 features. The other was a request to build a setting to stop the automatic rescheduling of work based on time off. That Idea is available here: https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000PSNiAAO/detail

This was an idea on the previous support page. My link to it has since been disabled and I cannot find the original post on the new page. I will ask my rep if they can locate it as it was already above the threshold to be under consideration.

make the notification/alert indicate if time off or (if dates end up being fixed) the assignment would result in over allocation of the worker.

Thank you for submitting this request, up voting for it and sharing your use cases. We fully understand the need behind this functionality but we won't be able to invest in it during upcoming 12 months. So, I will be marking this as Not Planned for now, but please continue sharing your use cases since we may revisit the decision at some point in the future.


Kind regards,

Why would you shelve this? The feature to disable the moving of dates does not help those of us that WANT the dates to move (because that's reality). This would help us know why a date moved and would maintain the integrity of our project plans at the same time.
