Workfront: How to Set Reminder for Update section

Hi team,

 

I'm using Workfront for all my work. If any stakeholders mention a certain date in Workfront to follow up on, is there a way to set a reminder in Workfront to track that?

 

Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

 

Regards,

Vino

Hi there, no, you cannot natively set a reminder notification based on copy in an Update/comment. Perhaps through Fusion, but not natively.

    Hi @madalyn_destafney

     

    Thanks for your comments. Is there any possibility to create sub task at user end based on the update section comments.

     

    Also, I'm using the notes section for status tracking and sharing with my stakeholders.   

     

    Regards,

    Hi there,

     

    Sure, a user can manually create a task or subtask whenever they see fit based on your process. If you decide that your process is when a followup request on a certain date is mentioned in a comment, the project manager or whomever appropriate could make themselves a task or subtask for that date so it doesn't fall off the radar. This really just comes down to how you manage projects. Unless you can get Fusion to create the task for you triggered by seeing a date in an update, it's not something you can do natively/in an automated way. I think there's even risk with that bc dates may be included in comments that AREN'T referencing followups, so you may end up with automated tasks created that shouldn't be.
