Building a simplified Project Overview Report

[KeaH]

Hi community... trying to create something like the Project Details of a project... a type of "Project Summary" of sorts. In it I'm hoping to have certain particular fields from the project, including budget, actuals, custom form fields, etc. I can't seem to find how to get this done nicely... kind of an executive summary of a project that's a clean report of that one project alone (not a list of projects). The Project Details section has several fields our company does not use, and has several fields missing that I need to present to our executives. Any thoughts?

I know what you mean - using reporting would mean stitching all the fields together, using sharecol=true, so you can display multiple fields together, So you could make the report have e.g. all schedule-related fields in column 1, budget related in column 2 etc. But that's really tedious. 

I don't know if this meets your needs, but you could create a Layout template for the execs where you hide certain fields in the Overview/Financials sections and nav bars. 

If you have Fusion you could create a custom "dashboard" that pulls the desired fields into a HTML document.

Hi @KeaH 
If you have Fusion here's another approach: 

Fusion has WordTemplate modules that allow you to populate a template with data. I won't lie - it's tedious depending on what you want to do, but it works. My example only shows out of box fields but any custom fields could be pulled in as well.

So a template like this

Could be populated like this

Thank you @Sven-iX ... I am trying to digest what youʻve provided. Although tedious, it looks definitely doable.

Hi @KeaH, 

In addition to the roll-your-own options for Workfront or Fusion @Sven-iX mentioned, I invite you to consider our Project Status Report, Executive Status Report, and/or Magic Reports solutions. Each of those (among many others) render live data, immediately, right from within Workfront, and can be tailored to your ideal specification. I'd be happy to chat further via doug.denhoed@atappstore.com when you're ready for more details.

Regards,

Doug

That's slick Doug! Love these.

At the Summit, there was a Fusion lab where they walked through creating a PDF with Project details. Details and guides can be found in this post: https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/workfront-discussions/adobe-summit-2025-workfront-p...
