Thanks Dustin - as a long time WorkFront user/admin, I deal with 'should I work on it or not' all the time. Commit dates are a neat feature that lets an SME commit to the planned date but it has 2 major downsides that makes the value of the feature 'questionable'. Downside #1 PM (nor Admin) can't easily remove the commit date if a plan needs major re-work - for example a project starts, a solid plan is built and execution begins. Then for whatever reason the project is put on hold - let say the funding dried up for 3 months. Once the project restarts the projected dates all move out, the PM can change the planned dates but ONLY the person that said "work on it' can change a commit date (unless the PM/Admin goes thru the hassle/gyration of removing the assigned resource and then assigning them). Invalid commit dates can cause project and condition states that are misleading and oftentimes result in the 'you are late' emails that become noise and are disregarded, (and which make true you are late messaging get lost in the crowd further diminishing their value too). I am not advocating that the PM can say - 'here is your commit date' - but it would be nice if an admin or project owner could easily clear the commit date - one by one or en masse when needed. Hint hint - enhancement request. Downside #2 If I am the project owner and in the process of building a project I assign myself to a task and if the project is in requested, assigned, or current status, I just committed to the planned completion date. That would not be so bad if there was an easy way for the project owner to submit and accept a commit date change without having to drill into the project task and make the change (request) and then approve the request in the update feed. Yeah, I know, be careful don't assign it until the work is defined (start, end, direction, etc) but that distracts from the issue - managing commit dates is tough in WF and seems cumbersome to me. An oh yeah, If I need to re-plan the project - I have to make the same request on all of my tasks the same as every other assigned task owner - downside #1 - rears it ugly head again. In short ,commit dates are nice but they have some flaws/unintended consequences that prevent them from being really useful and they are tough to manage. Jim Brown FujiFilm Medical Systems, USA
