Workload Balancer - In Line Planned Hours Allocation EditingNew

TLDR: It would be great if we could more easily adjust the planned hours across a multi-day task similar to SchedulerOur team currently uses Scheduler for daily meetings and planning new work requests. We understand our resource availability based on the Scheduler Planned Hours and since our average project durations are 2-10 days our task durations are usually .25-2 days at 2 hours or less. So large amounts of short sprint tasks. When projects need to be re-prioritized or adjusted to account for new or more critical work the Project Managers need to "balance the hours" by editing the planned hour allocations across our task durations, or just moving the task out. The latter is preferred as it honors due date commitments.Now that we are preparing to move to Balancer, having the edit allocations buried by even more clicks creates additional touch points and frustration on our PM team. It would be great if we could more easily adjust the planned hours across a multi-day task similar to Scheduler even if it was a toggle setting that needed to be turned on. I will add that visually, Scheduler is the preferred tool by myself and our team. It's cleaner and we are able to view a calendar of tasks versus Projects + Tasks. In Balancer it is currently much more cluttered if you want to view tasks. While our adjustment to this will be reviewing our day-to-day by project level and putting more accountability on the resources to understand their daily tasks (which could have benefits) we'd prefer to see tasks since our projects involve many short tasks.

Adobe Alert Reporting Request - Add ability to report on 1)Which alerts have fired within a set period 2) Ability to report on related Alert meta dataNew

Description: As a business (finance sector) we need be able to  report on which  Alerts have fired in a set period,  so we can monitor usage and response to  the alert. Adobe support have confirmed this  feature is not availableWhy is this feature important to you – In order to meet our regulatory commitments, we have setup Alerts for a large number of high  priority  journeys customers can undertake cross our digital platforms. The alerts are used, in the main, to monitoring variation  in  journey  start  and completion  rates . Once the threshold(s) is  breached, based on  the alert  rules ,  an E-mail alert is sent.  The relevant party  should then  response to  the Alert and investigate to  issue. However we have no  reporting on  any  aspect of the alerts. This  means we cannot prove our ‘Control’  is working , effective and being responded to.How would you like the feature to work – We would like to use current Workspace / Adobe analytics functionality to  access all  objects /  data  related to  alerts . This includes any  meta data related to the alert(s), i.e.  Title, type, Enabled, etc.  We need to be able to report on which  alerts did /  didn’t fire in a set period and provide a countCurrent Behaviour -None , as not currently  available

Introduce new permission to allow edits to projects pending approvalNew

Apologies in advance for submitting this as a new idea as there may already be an idea similar to this one: https://one.workfront.com/s/idea/0870z000000PSGvAAO. My goal is to expand on what's been proposed and suggest a UI element that could to introduced to control how this feature works.Currently, when a project is pending approval, it is locked so no updates can be made: tasks or items cannot be added, new comments cannot be made by users via the Updates area, custom data cannot be updated, etc. Although this generally makes sense from a compliance perspective (as a way to prevent users from "sneaking in" changes), there's a case to be made that certain folks should still be able to post certain updates and edit certain project data without having to restart the entire approval process. It's tempting to say that one should just "kick" the project record out from the approval process by adjusting the status, make the edits, and re-initiate approvals, however, it certain instances it's simply more trouble than it's worth, especially when an approval process has multiple stages with at least one [or more] of them involving senior leadership.Additionally, there may be automation processes that attempt to make certain functional updates to project records only to encounter roadblocks caused by these records being locked by a pending approval status. Thus, my suggestion for an enhancement would be to implement an extra permission for folks with Manage access to the project that would allow them to make edits during the approval process (see image). When non-system admin users with Manage access attempt to make an edit to a project that's pending approval, they should be given a warning message popup to help them understand that it's not recommended.Users with System Administrator access should always be able to edit a project when it's pending approval; this would allow system accounts / automations to perform project update actions on the background (regardless of the fact that there may be an active approval pending). Thank you!
