Currently, an Admin can implement a default task constraint using two variables:Set the Start date settings in task & Issue preferencesSchedule from in the project settings.This allows a user to set a default task constraint to:As soon as possibleStart no earlier thanAs late as possibleStart no later thanWe have a requirement to set the task constraint to "Fixed Dates" as the default.We would like a way to implement this at a global and group level.Ideally, rather than a matrix of complex variables, a simple drop-down with the 11 constraint options would be perfect.
Description - Right now it goes to the homepage after login regardless of what I click or what I'm doing. Why is this feature important to you - It is frustrating to the user who expects this to be the common/basic behavior. How would you like the feature to work - When I click a link in an email and have to go through login, it should remember where I was headed and take me there instead of the homepage. Current Behavior - After login user is directed to the page determined by their layout. We use SSO. Submitted to me by one of our users.
The new Home are is clean and offers some powerful customization options. I would like the ability to create Home templates, similarly to how we create Layout Templates now, to start users out with so they see the most important information first (i.e. for Executives, have Awaiting My Approval, Team Requests, and Mentions up top; for Project Owners, have My Projects, Mentions up top, etc.).
Anomaly Detection is a great feature which is available in two Workspace visualizations: Freeform tables and Line Charts.For many years, anomalies would show automatically in Line Charts (provided Anomalies were enabled in the Viz settings) but it has recently been removed.Now, in order to see anomalies, it's necessary to first drop in a secondary 'time series' breakdown dimension (for example 'Day') in the underlying data table and then select the values in the table in order to see anomalies in the line chart. Even though, it's just a few extra clicks, it is really annoying, especially when reviewing a large number of items. It's also difficult to train internal stakeholders to do this extra step. According to Client Care, this is not a bug but a feature that has been withdrawn (though I can't find any official documentation, for example in the release notes). Adobe, please bring back the old functionality!
We have thousands of users in our database, many of whom decide to "Check Out" documents. Currently we must go through each of these jobs manually, one by one, to check in documents so that we may purge the documents when space becomes limited or retention level has been met. We have thousands of files that are currently "Checked Out". We have a standing policy to never check out documents, as it is not a necessary feature in our use-case and more of a hindrance.
Description - Be able to define a well-defined process to manage the AEP artifacts in the code repository and then have an automated way to deploy them between environments easily. Why is this feature important to you - As the project grows, it's not easy to manage changes between environments. A lot of things get manual and we lose track of what is in stage & what is in prod. How would you like the feature to work - Need a better-automated way and also a well-defined code structure. Current Behaviour - There are postman APIs to create & update artifacts, but that needs to get further enhanced to automate this well based on ongoing changes - add/modify/delete. Some artifacts will always be manual eg: new segments & updates, but few areas should be controlled well with code to maintain consistency eg: schemas & datasets, managing identities, and DULE labels & policies.
The Favorites list is currently ordered by when an item was added. There's no ability to change the order without deleting items and adding them back in the preferred order. This is too much effort when priorities change and the list needs to be reordered. Ideally items should be draggable like pinned items so that they can be moved based on priority or preference.
It would be really useful to have a function to add an item to an array variable. This should allow you to enter the name of an array variable (or even better, select it from a list) and provide the item input (string or object) and Fusion would add it to the list. There should be no need to provide the existing array contents as an input to the function like there is now with 'Set Variable'.This new function would save the repetition (especially within an iterator) of getting the variable then setting the variable again over and over. This would reduce Fusion operations and UI/config clutter.
Description - It would be helpful to have an On Hold (ONH) status for Tasks like there are for Projects and Requests. Why is this feature important to you - Sometimes tasks need to be put on hold as priorities change, etc. We'd like to indicate the true status because it's not New, In Progress, or Complete.How would you like the feature to work - Choose On Hold from the Status dropdown menu and remove it from being factored into the Project Condition. Current Behaviour - Tasks have three options New, In Progress, or Complete. We created a custom On Hold status, but it affects the Project Condition, so we adjust the dates repeatedly until the task is re-engaged and changed to In Progress or Cancelled (another custom status created.) For Cancelled Tasks, we can delete the task but it's useful to show the task was considered for the project. We remove dates and planned duration/hours for it so it will not impact the Project Condition. We don't want to remove them from On Hold tasks so the stakeholders know the effort needed should it be decided to move forward.
Description: A HUGE issue for our company and use of the Workfront system. We need requests to house interactive proofs and then convert those requests into projects while keeping those interactive proofs and comments attached to the document. Why is this feature important to you: for our system to work correctly we need requesters to provide feedback and annotations or interactive proofs of their needs to our team - one of the main reasons we were sold on using the Workfront product in the first place was the functioning interactive proofing tool and this not working is a huge issue for our use case. How would you like the feature to work: converting issues or requests that have interactive documents/proofs to projects should move the proof and all of its functionality and comments to the converted project. Current Behaviour: when we convert an issue with a annotated proof to a project, the proof reverts to a pdf and looses all comments. Is this something being developed/can it be requested to develop in the product? thank you!!
Description - It would be incredibly helpful to be able to default ALL the Communication and Information about Work Assigned to Me notifications to Instant. Some of them only default to daily and have to manually be set to instant when a new user is set up. Why is this feature important to you - We have had too many instances where this default wasn't reset and have lost 1/2 day to a day in communication responses because the recipient didn't get their notification until the next day. How would you like the feature to work - option to default all Notification options to Instant. Current Behaviour - the following Communication options default only to DailySomeone comments on a thread I'm inSomeone comments on one of my work itemsSomeone includes my team non a directed updateSomeone replies to my request The following Information about Work assigned to ME default only to Daily:A predecessor of one of my tasks is completeDocuments are uploaded or changed on requests I'm assigned to Eden Kellner researched our settings and opened a service ticket on my behalf. Eden thought this could be set up in Defaults. It then went through Neha Singhal and landed with Aliece Christensen who both said it only defaults to Daily and I'd have to manually set it for each new user to Instant. (Case number 00383128)
Request for Feature Enhancement (RFE) Summary: Additional customisations are needed in the AEM notification section to receive specific notifications via email or display few of them in the notification box. It would also be beneficial to have support for third-party applications like Slack, enabling notifications for particular events. Enhancing the notification system with more options such as 'Acknowledged' or 'Read' statuses could further improve the user experience Use-case: Consider the following scenario: If duplicate asset detection is enabled and an author uploads a duplicate asset, a notification is triggered, indicating that a duplicate asset has been uploaded to the DAM. It might be more effective to send an email exclusively for this notification, or alternatively, to send a message to the designated Slack group. Current/Experienced Behavior: Notifications can either be sent via email for each instance or displayed in the notification area, depending on the chosen configuration. Improved/Expected Behavior: It would be beneficial to offer comprehensive customization options for notifications. This could involve the ability to receive certain notifications via email, integrating with Slack for specific types of notifications, and providing features such as 'acknowledge' and 'read' options.

One suggestion that I would love to make to the Adobe team is - can we ask them to offer other data format options other than just CSV files? If the file format could be a modern file format like parquet, then that would also make our processing much more efficient. When we get the Adobe files, the first thing we have to do is pre-process them to format the files, because of the way they are structured. This slows down the entire process by a lot, and is also expensive.In brief: The format of the CSV files that are provided are not "splittable" to be able to be processed by a big data tool like Spark or Databricks. The reason is that there are new-line characters embedded in some of fields, and CSV files have to be processed serially when that is the case. This is an inherent limitation of the design of the CSV format. As a result, these huge files, which are multiple GB in size, have to be processed initially using a single machine, instead of leveraging the power of parallel machine design such as Spark. This limits our ability to quickly process the data. Switching to a format such as parquet, would mean that the data would not only be able to be processed in parallel, but would also mean that it would automatically be compressed, saving on both storage and compute costs to process the files.
I want to be able to display a date as a week number on a report. This should be the ISO week number. Instead of a date displayed as "March 9, 2017", I'd like to have the option to display it as "Week 10"
It would be awesome to have an option for the custom Date field to be able to put in a span of datesExample: we'll use the date field to ask when the event is, but they can only put 1 day in, but the event might run over several days.
Description: We are looking to expand our use of the Boards feature but keep hitting road blocks based on limitations in functionality. We were recently told that parent tasks can be pulled in as cards and child tasks would make up the checklist items on on the subsequent cards. However, we were told that the child tasks often pull in to the check list out of the order they appear on the project even if linked as predecessors. Furthermore, when we asked how/when this would be resolved, we were told that this was not ON the roadmap to address...That doesn't make sense to me or my team. Why is this feature important to you: Two reasons. Without have child tasks appropriately relating to check list items introduces confusion and risk into what should be a value add feature. In my view it's a blocker to expanding the use of boards and will inhibit my ability to scale this feature more broadly in my organization. How would you like the feature to work: project is created with a parent task, that has child tasks linked via predecessors. based on template task ID, that parent task pulls into a card (representative of a project) and the subsequent child tasks pull in as check list items that function the same as tasks on a project AND are in the same order they appear in on the project. If subsequent changes are made on the project, they become reflected in the card (acting as a child of the project.). Current Behaviour: A parent task can get pulled into a card, but the child tasks get pulled in completely out of order.
DescriptionWe just migrated from Adobe Analytics to the Web SDK, we are using the XDM Object Data Element to do the Mapping with the existing Data Elements. To decrease the amount of work required for that migration we found out that the best option was to do the Mapping at the value level for both eVars, pros & events. Current BehaviourWe noticed that the Web SDK hits were sending empty string and empty object, what Adobe Analytics hits were eliminated by default. We did not have to worry about this before the Web SDK migration. How would you like the feature to workWe would like that the Web SDK just work the same way the Adobe Analytics was working, just discard all the variables that are empty or undefined.Why is this feature important to you Until now we were looking at the data only in Adobe Analytics and the reporting was working fine even without the non-optimized Web SDK hits, but now that we are trying to work with the Adobe Experience Platform, we noticed that all the Web SDK hits are failing because of syntax errors on at least a single field. For example: The message cannot be validated because a required property is missing: #/_experience/analytics/event1to100/event3: required key [value] not found.The current XDM Object structure around events is not ideal, we need to handle them at the "hundred parent level" 😥 Why the structure is not like the eVars & props? If we just had one "events" parent object, we could make sure that we always have at least one event set and set each event on its own without handling a bigger object of 100 events. The number of fields ingested through the Adobe Experience Platform has a direct impact on our Profile Richness Overage (we already reach out the limit 😑)
Description - It would be nice, if this field type would also provide the possibility to select more than one entry.Why is this feature important to you - to have a "dynamic" dropdown field, which does support all features of static dropdown fieldsHow would you like the feature to work - similar to Multi-Select DropdownCurrent Behaviour - only one selection possible
Zusammenfassung der Funktionsverbesserungsanfrage (RFE): Let authors unlock webpages to be used by authors of another website of the same AEM instance. (aka Page Sharing) Anwendungsfall: We run multiple websites in our AEM instance. Those websites have cooperations going on. One say that they can take over news from each other. Authors had to copy and paste the news text and create and rebuild a totally separate page for it on their own website. We did an attempt by telling them to store the news text in content fragments. Content fragments can be embedded by all websites on the instance. That works. However, the content fragements only the text without any components a news page may also contain (quotes, images, videos -etc.). So authors must replicate the components each time anyway. Aktuelles/erlebtes Verhalten: We do content fragment sharing, but authors are unhappy, because of the missing components. Verbessertes/erwartetes Verhalten: Authors of webpages can check a checkbox in the Page Properties to unlock them for Page Sharing. The shared webpages appear all authors as a dedicated tile on the AEM welcoming page. There they click a button named "Create shared page", which creates a live copy - literally like the already available live copy feature. The system shows all the content from the source page, but set the correct template in the background so the look and feel of the target website is applied. The system sets the canonical tag URL to the original webpage. The system "links" the components to the components of the original webpage, so as soon as the original component gets updated, the linked one also gets updated. Authors may "unlink" components to customize them, thereby losing the synchronization. Authors may set Page Properties and then publish the webpage in their own content tree, as usual.

Description - Always make the project name viewable by forcing the project name space to be longer or allow it to wrapWhy is this feature important to you - We often prefix project names so to see the full name of the project, you have to mouse over to see the full name of the projectHow would you like the feature to work - Make the project name character space wider even when screen size shrinks and after a certain size, have the name wrap to line 2 so the full name can always be read no matter what the browser size.Current Behaviour - When viewing the Project page, if you have a narrow screen or are magnified in your browser, the Project Name field only shows a few characters. You can't read the entire name unless you mouse over. And if you make the screen more narrow, it keeps all the white cell padding between the right side nav fields (%, Owner, Date, etc) yet the name field shrinks even smaller.
Description - Currently, when a task (and other objects) are pending approval, no changes can be made other than posting updates and adding documents. There should be a setting that Admins can enable to allow custom form editing while a task is pending approval. Reason being, if rejected, team members need to be able to add in rejection reasons or fill out QA checklists on custom forms BEFORE making a decision. Current Behaviour - Currently, if a task is pending approval then no changes to the custom form can be made. This requires the user to first make a decision and then go back and capture rejection reasons. However, once they make the decision the email to the Task Assignee has already gone out and that information for them to review isn't there at the same time.
Description - Approval Process automatic status change upon approval (similar to the approval option to automatically change to a status when an approval is rejected.Why is this feature important to you - Automatic status change would remove the user having to manually change the status upon approvalHow would you like the feature to work -Add an option in the approval process that allows the user set up to "Choose what happens when the approval is Accepted" similar to the current option- "Choose what happens when the approval is rejected:"
Users are getting errors and losing all their work when they try to delete one of the forms on a request.Edit all forms > realize they no longer need one of them > delete it and try to save and get an error you can't get rid of. They lose all the work they did. Seems that the system gets confused as it is trying to save your edits and delete the form at the same time and doesn't know which one to do.Support suggested I put this here as maybe a fix one day.
When we are looking at a project we cannot see the full project name because it gets cut off. See screenshot attached. It's a huge nuisance. I wonder if we could control text wrapping or font size to make it so we can see what we're looking at on our smaller screened MacBook Pros?The lack of color control on text is also disappointing. I'd like to have all of our project names appear as red so it's quick to see (instead of looking up at the breadcrumbs) where you are in the hierarchy.
Description - My organization can't set up the SharePoint Graph API integration since the set up requires my organization Admin Approval to allow Workfront to access SharePoint, rather than using a predefined set up as used in SharePoint Integration legacy set up. My organization only uses the predefined set up to grant app access. Can a predefined set up be available to access SharePoint Graph API? Why is this feature important to you - We would like to use SharePoint for documents
