When we had Workfront originally set up for us it was just set up for our Creative Services team to use and we had an outside company set it up for us. Now another department within our Parent company would like to start using it as well. YAY, I want every department to use it, BUT also AHHHHHHH!!!! I'm not entirely sure where to start. I wasn't involved until the setup was already completed.
I need to meet with them to get a break down of their processes to get a full scope of what needs to be created. I assume the first place to start would be with creating a team/group that only they are part of. Then I would need to create portfolios and programs. Problem is our current portfolios are the property names and our programs are the department names. They would technically need all of those same options. But we don't want their stuff getting mixed up with ours and we don't want them having any access to our stuff. Would I need to create a new version of each portfolio/program with there initials in front or something like that. I am also concerned that all of our stuff may be visible to them as when we were creating it we weren't expecting to have to hide things from another department.
I really want to take on this task as I love learning new stuff in Workfront and I'm afraid they will go outside due to the amount of time required to set this up and this not being in my actual job description.
Does anyone have any tips on how to start or know of any articles that explain how to start this that I could read up on?
Also, not entirely sure how working in the sandbox mode works. If I worked on all of this in there will it function normally and then i can just push it to our regular mode once it's all set up?
Just when I thought I was getting the hang of all this =)
Appreciate and help/advice I can get.
