Hi everyone! I've collapsed down a list of ideas that we have upvoted within our internal team and would appreciate your support too! Managing Tasks/Approvals Prevent Task from Being Marked as Complete If Required Fields on Custom Form Attached to the Task Are Blank Routing Custom Forms for Approval or Print to PDF Link Proof and Task approvals Task getting auto-approved when a Proof or Document associated with the Task is approved Managing Proofs Proof reviewer / approver delegation by current reviewer / approver Add/Edit Automated Proof Workflow from Inside the Proof Viewer New Proof: Change default from basic to automated Automated Proofs: Add option to create automated proofs as default or expose to API UX/Other/Admin Ability to export Custom Forms "https://community.workfront.com/discussions/community-home/digestviewer/Ability%20to%20report%20on%20issues,%20tasks,%20and%20projects%20together%20in%20one%20report" Ability to report on issues, tasks, and projects together in one report Allow screenshots in updates/comments Ability to convert the field type to another field type Make Custom Forms Appear as Tabs Implement Quick Pins for Custom Forms for shortcuts to Layout Templates New Home: Bring back Recent Updates I want to be able to set a default View/Filter/Grouping from Layout Template Ability to move from Sandbox to Production Mandatory logging of time on task Out of Office auto replies to directed updates Populate empty profile pictures with user's initials James Hill

Why isn't the idea exchange on the same platform as the community? Why do I have to log in to "Idea exchange" if I'm already logged into "Community". It really limits the sharing of ideas. Aileen Taylor Cell Signaling Technology

We are in huge need of organizing our 1410 reports. Please(!) vote for adding custom data to reports. cataloging reports according to their audience or purpose would would help so much, and allow us a method of isolating the right reports to be maintained! (not my idea, but I upvoted it rather than entering a duplicate) https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360005043733-Reports-Provide-the-ability-add-...

Agreed. And it would be great if it were the same platform as their Helpdesk (or at least integrated), so when WF tells me the Issue I've reported is a Feature request, which they do OFTEN (even when it's an obvious bug) I can simply move it over without having to re-attach screen shots, etc.

Please vote to bring back "Recent Updates" to the new My Home page. I use this section on the current My Work daily to see if I responded to all updates I was tagged in. There is no report that shows the data in the same way.

[AnthonyPernice]

I liked the Recent Updates as well, it would be nice to see it back. The link didn't open properly, but I found it here- "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360014281534-New-Home-Bring-back-Recent-Updates" https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360014281534-New-Home-Bring-back-Recent-Updat...

I have been very frustrated with the Proof/Share buttons that are done outside the Proof (ie on the Documents tab). The defaults for the user that the Proof is being shared with are for "subscribers" and there is no way to change the default other than each and every time you share a proof. Therefore, any time someone uses that button the recipient is automatically Reviewer with No Emails. This causes extra steps and is difficult to explain to people why this button can't be used (nor can it be removed). Please upvote my Idea that the Share button works the same as it does when you are within the Proof as it does when you are in Workfront

[AileenTa]

Hi Jill, If I can find your idea I'll upvote it. IMHO Workfront's proofing tool needs a lot of work to even begin to compete with other major proofing tools. Aileen Taylor Cell Signaling Technology

[JillAc]

Uch when I try to reply via the Community website the link never works. Here it is again. This is to request that they fix the share buttons for proofs so they all work the same and access the same user defaults "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360014680473-Fix-the-share-button-">https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360014680473-Fix-the-share-button- Jill Ackerman

Dear Community,

I'm looking to get feedback and votes in the idea exchange to support my suggestion. Idea Exchange post: "

https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360014454834-Date-Management-Within-Schedulin...">https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360014454834-Date-Management-Within-Schedulin...

We are looking for the ability to manage task dates at the scheduling tool level. If we could move tasks (colored tiles) to the next available date and get the timeline in the project updated automatically, that would be so helpful and much more efficient for project managers (see attached image).

Thanks for your support. Dominique Blanchette Olympus

Hi Everyone, Please vote for "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360012879053-Make-the-Business-Case-Available-for-Requests">Make the Business Case Available for Requests .

Came across this post on the Idea Exchange just before I was about to post it myself: "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360007851574-New-Home-Allow-project-level-documents-and-updates-to-display-in-Home">New Home: Allow Project-Level Documents and Updates to Display in Home I'm less concerned about project updates in Home, but more excited for easy access to project documents when users are viewing tasks in Home, to save them from having to click into the project and then into the documents tab for every single task they are assigned.

Here's a pair of ideas around the "Convert to Project" selector. The selector is small, and it would be helpful to be able to see more than just 5 templates in the selector.

Here's a pretty basic layout change we'd like to see on the "Indent" and "Outdent" buttons when viewing a task list. We propose that Workfront swap their positions on the page to better match common layout's e.g. MS Word "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360015917714-Reverse-Indent-and-Outdent-Button-Positions">https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360015917714-Reverse-Indent-and-Outdent-Butto...

This one may have made the rounds before, but its something I know my company desperately needs: when you upload a new version of a file, the name that appears in Workfront should MATCH the latest file name. I found two entries for this, one of which has 31 votes- let's get this one over the line, PLEASE! 31 Votes: "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115000276574-Latest-document-name-to-show-when-versioning-documents" https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115000276574-Latest-document-name-to-show-whe... 11 Votes: "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115004027653-Proofing-see-native-file-name-in-the-each-version" https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115004027653-Proofing-see-native-file-name-in...

I came across this awesome idea that I think most of you would appreciate as well. At the moment you can only control if hours are logged to completed projects but the idea is to also control if you can log time to a completed task. I personally would not have this featured turned on as my users typically will have a few outstanding timesheets that need to be closed out, but I could see how more stringent instances could benefit from this.
