Need report showing Reviewer role's outstanding Proofs

Avatar

Level 2

I have users who are primarily set up as Reviewers on proofs. These users are having a hard time tracking which proofs still need their comments. They only get email notifications, but they prefer to have a report they can reference.

I was able to build a report filtering Proof Approval properties and so this shows Reviewer & Approver role what is outstanding, but I can't figure out how to build something similiar for Reviewers.

Any ideas out there?

Thank you!

Hi Kim,

This too is an issue for us. Sadly doing proof reporting in Workfront is very, very limited.

What I ended up doing is a document report, where the Current Version -> Proof ID is not empty, and the document's Shared Users.ID equals $$USER.ID

This will list all documents that a have a proof attached that current user is shared with - which usually means they have a proofing role - as adding a user to the proof as a reviewer gives them view permission (sharing).

It's annoying because there doesn't seem to be any way to get a proof link in a report - so users have to go to the document's landing page first (from the report) and then open the proof from there. At least it's something!

A tech at Workfront helped me with this.

Feel free to copy and paste and use it if it works.

Hi Samantha, Thanks for sharing this! Do you know if there's a way to filter by a specific user's outstanding proofs that they need to review? Christine Zhu Chobani
