This would be super helpful for our PMs. With task approvals, issue approvals, and proof approvals all in one giant Work List that is not filter-able or even sort-able by approval type, it's causing things to get lost in the long list "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360014680533-NEW-HOME-Bring-back-ability-to-filter-on-approval-type-e-g-issue">Bring back ability to filter on approval type

Hi all, Please up vote this if you think it would be useful. We would like to be able to 'pin' a post/update that is important on templates/projects.

For anyone looking to adapt the Agile tool set, this idea to be able to implement custom statuses on the Kanban/iteration boards will be huge. Custom workflows are a must for Agile.

If we could upvote this idea it would be great (I know we have a long way to go on it but would have a huge impact for us!) https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115001235174-Filter-to-Show-Only-Ready-to-Sta... When a task has been completed, you see a tick icon. I think having an icon to show ready to start would be a massive addition to this tool if we could not have the filter.... either would be a great benefit to us. Thanks, Vicky Vicky Fitzgerald Telegraph Media Group Limited

Hi All! I want to change the "Proof Generation Successful" icon. Our users want to be able to identify documents/versions that have a proof built on them but the existing green check-mark box icon has been causing some confusion. Its style is too closely associated with the proof status icons of SOCD so people confuse it with an actual proof status. It'd be nice if the icon was a little more unique. I've created an idea exchange ticket for this: "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360025324773-Change-the-Proof-Generation-Successful-Icon" title="https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360025324773-Change-the-Proof-Generation-Successful-Icon"> https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360025324773-Change-the-Proof-Generation-Succ...

Please upvote this! In HOME work list sort but Planned Start Date. The work list can be sorted by Planned Completion but not START. The calendar shows the end date but not the START date or the duration. Completion date is no good if the task takes 4 weeks to complete and they don't pick it up until it's due! My team is not adopting Home until this is implemented.

Hi all... I'm still crossing my fingers that one day in the near-distant future, my idea comes to fruition... for the Global Nav Bar and top portion of the Project stay in place while scrolling down the list of tasks within the project. At the very least, the Global Nav Bar should always display at the top no matter where you're at within the instance.

Hey Everyone! We'd love for you to consider voting for this one: https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360025900074-3rd-Party-Notifications-Subscrip... We have no way for people to stay closely tied to approvals if they are not actual approvers in a stage. We have a lot of leaders that want notification on several approval paths we have.... but not by being an approver in it. We'd love to see the approval setup have a field to enter users for notification. Matt Marks Banner Engineering Corp.

[EricMa]

Hi, all. A plug to upvote my idea. We often assign a task to several staffers (to divide up the work); however, only the "primary" assignee gets a notification from Workfront when the task assignment takes place. We'd like the option to notify all assignees, not just the primary (both choices should be available from the Notifications settings).

Make Hyperlink Behavior Consistent Across All Parts of Application https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360026464954-Home-Make-hyperlink-behavior-con... Depending on the part of the application you're in, a hyperlink may open in a new tab or in the same tab, even if it's the same field. In this example, I demonstrate how a link in Home's fields section opens in a new tab, while the same link in other parts (Legacy My Work and the Object page). I used the [Description] field for my example, but this is applicable to the URL field and any other textfield that has a URL. My recommendation is to make the link behavior consistent for all areas of the application. (This is very small, I know, but it's nice for users to experience consistent behavior when they click a field) Vincent Goodwin The Capital Group Companies

[TimBl]

Hi, I see this thread and have to assume that there is a better way to do this. Does anyone curate the ideas to try to group them together? It would be excellent if there was a weekly report that went out to everyone to show the status of ideas, what is gaining steam and ultimately try socialize them around to everyone.

Please upvote the above idea! Being able to delete the standard Workfront reports that come with the system would be great for us as we are trying to currently get our list of over 400 reports down to a manageable size and only want those left that are of use. Thank you! Vicky Fitzgerald Telegraph Media Group Limited

[ChristinaBr1]

The recommendation is to add a data visualization tool called DASHBOARD (i.e., data analytics) to the Workfront tool. Please find attached an example of an actual dashboard. What currently (02/17/2019) exists in the Workfront tool is only a "REPORTING" capability where users might pull out a report or more and the system simply display these reports one by one, one under the other, in a sometimes long, long page. Users need to scroll down (around) to see all information, so it is not a dashboard. A dashboard includes the most important information required to achieve one or more objectives that has been consolidated, and fits, on a single computer screen so it can be monitored at a glance. Users should experience a design optimized for their desktop/laptops, tablet, or mobile phone. Importance of Dashboards: 1- Make reporting more efficient for decision makers; 2- Make reading easy (i.e., prevent never-ending pages of multiple reports); 3- Monitor several KPIs and metrics at once, and at a glance; 4- Present real-time information; 5- Provide powerful data analytics and modern interactive data visualizations. Recommended roadmap timeline: Q2 2019. Thank you. Christina Van Braz Scotiabank

Our team has shared resources to complete a task and we only need one user to complete the task. We set up our team on the task, but we are coaching our team to have one member claim their task when they receive the summary notification that they are on the activity/project. This way the user that claimed the task can get pinged with an email notification when their step is actually ready to be worked on. Kiersten Kollins DSW Inc.
