Thanks for the curated list! For the second to last one (out of office), I'd love see something like this: Sean Sanders | London Drugs

This is a good one but the link isn't right "https://community.workfront.com/discussions/community-home/digestviewer/Ability%20to%20report%20on%20issues,%20tasks,%20and%20projects%20together%20in%20one%20report" title="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

Its great to see that many items on that list are either planned or under consideration, with at least one already completed. And @Sean Sanders - your idea is awesome! Your profile pic, doubly so. Anthony Pernice

Let's get more traction on this one: Allowing Groups to be moved into Sub Groups https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000PSYUAA4/detail Or more generally, "allow Groups to be moved around in the structure of subgroups just like tasks." "Moving" a subgroup to a parent subgroup or top-level, or moving into sub-parents, is an exercise in frustration as it stands now. Especially as our deployment is in flux and we find ourselves rethinking organization more than once. Kevin Quosig

[VicAl]

Upvoted. Haven't had a need for this before, but with some organizational changes it would really be handy.

Kevin, Are you saying that you are looking for more than what is currently there? To add an existing group to a parent, editing the parent group and adding the proposed subgroup name will move it as a subgroup. And if you want to remove it, going to the parent and removing the group will make it a primary group, which then you could use the first step to move it where you want. For user membership in groups, I go in through the user side where I can bulk edit people through filters and creative CTL+Click selections. What functionality are you looking for in addition to that? Just trying to understand if I am using groups correctly. 😃 Thanks Dale Whitchurch

[CalvinFold]

Dale, I want to be able to, say, take an existing subgroup and drag it into another parent. Or take it from a sub-group to top-level. To take a top-level and drag it into a subgroup. Basically, to move it around in the hierarchy tree of subgroups as I wish after creation. Kevin Quosig

This one isn't my idea but can we please get some love for this: https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000XhPJAA0/detail Basically we need to enhance / really push the typeahead field in the new experience to be something really powerful and useful. Having a admin controlled group of lists that can be referenced in the typeahead along with the system defined ones would make this an extremely powerful tool Ryan Carroll Integrated Marketing Services

[MattMc2]

This is an idea that needs to happen: Hybrid custom forms mixing custom and standard data The ability to direct a user to one single form for all relevant updates. For example, a user could update the project 'condition', and 'status' along with other relevant custom fields - all in one place. Matt McCarthy

[CalvinFold]

This one could really use some love... Team Management in Access Level https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000PSbdAAG/detail We've had some near-misses where non-admins create teams and start using them in ways contrary to process because they do not understand the ramifications. We want teams to be the purview of admins so we can create them on behalf of users that might need them, apply naming standards, and otherwise keep chaos to a low roar. Kevin Quosig

Workfront's handling of finances--the current bane of my existence (and the Financial Coordinator's!): Exposing Rate Sheet Source Information (Resource Revenue) https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000Xht9AAC/detail Been going round and around with Support for months figuring this out; the level of frustration over this has been very high each time we do End-of- finances (Year, Month, Quarter). Kevin Quosig

[AileenTa]

If you use expenses please upvote this... hide or delete default expense types. The defaults cause a lot of confusion for my team since accounting uses different labels to track expenses. https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000PSfxAAG/detail Aileen Taylor Cell Signaling Technology

I've submitted an idea to give us an option to enable some form of object approval override for Project Owners. We frequently come across situations where a project owner is having to get around approvals in order to complete their projects. Right now they have to move the object to a non-pending status, delete the approval, and then change the status of the item back. Since project owners already have th eability to do this, it seems silly that we can't have a simple override to prevent confusion when looking back at logs.

Yes!! Upvoted! 😊

Today is PHQ issues day...this one is in regards to the hard-to-see thin, gray line connecting the comment to the markup when clicking on an existing comment. PHQ: Pointer from Comment to Markup https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000XhvPAAS/detail Kevin Quosig

We would really like requestors to be able to duplicate requests themselves. I found this one: https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000PSnTAAW/detail Kristine Ross

Ability to set report column widths based on % of available space (or at least improve the current "content aware" auto-width feature)! Workfront's reports are supposed to be content aware when choosing automatic column widths, however this is not the case. We see reports every day where the column with the most content will be squished into a difficult to read narrow width, while a different column with less content (like a date) will take up a disproportionate amount of space. The text mode columnwidth = function seems to work for the most part, but once you manually set a width for one column, you have to do it for every single column after that because it disregards the automatic sizing! Improved column width options would not only make reports look prettier, but make them easier and faster to read so that our team can get their best work done. If you've been struggling with this too, please upvote the idea! https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000XhvjAAC/detail Maddy Martin

I would like the Typeahead field to be linked to the object it is referencing. https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000XhwIAAS/detail Leah Janz Metro Transit

Yesss sounds absolutely reasonable. ImreMagyar VODAFONE Group

https://experience.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000XhydAAC/detail We create 2 (or more) projects from one request. This is a pain with the two conversion options currently available. When converting an issue/request to a task or object we can currently keep the issue open and resolvable by the object or delete the issue. The following additional options would be useful. Do not make the issue resolvable to the object AND keep the issue open (so multiple objects can be converted from one issue) OR Allow multiple resolvable objects Do not make the issue resolvable to the object AND close the issue (but do not delete for reporting purposes) Kristy Musgrove Havertys
