Would love the ability to send someone a URL so they can go directly to the right folder in the project.
A filter in Updates would be great. Sometimes there are very long strings of updates, and some are nested/collapsed and it can be hard to find one that you know is there. If you could filter by User (if you know who posted it) or search by a word, that would make finding that elusive needle in a haystack so much easier.
If they don't already exist, It would be nice to have folders to store workspaces. My list is getting very large. I like the tagging feature, but would also be nice to file some away.
Please add a feature that allows a Dashboard creator to automatically display more than 15 issues for a report upon opening the Dashboard
There can be many reasons users and the system enter updates on an object (project, issue, task, etc). This can make finding the most relevant update for a report challenging. Today's design also assumes that every update the object owner makes is a "condition update".We propose adding functionality to #tag, categorize, or group updates. This would support the ability to filter the updates for a more precise item - such as the last "project status summary" or the "project gate review" or "staffing" topic.The tagging/categorization should support a single update having multiple tags - such as "customer facing update" and "internal project status summary".
The ability to assign fields to groups (like statuses) AND lock a field if it is tied to an integration. Could be done via a check box that requires an extra step to unlock and edit so the user is fully aware that they will be revising a field and will need to adjust Fusion or other API's as well.
Please add the capability to centrally manage shared resources (master) separately from more site specific Launch properties (child), where the site specific Launch properties can inherit the shared resources. It would be something similar to Search Discovery’s Master Property Manager: https://techdocs.searchdiscovery.com/adobe-solutions/adobe-launch/launch-extensions/master-property-manager . We would like this capability to be added to Launch.
Desire to quickly view the Project Sponsor from the main page of a WF Project. Thinking between Project Owner and Planned Competition? Top right of the page.
From the Resource Management > Planner tool, it would be great if we could create flexibility in the way that the information is displayed. For example, we were hoping to re-organize the order in the planner view to show the available hours from a team first, then the hours for the people within that team, and then the hours per project.The current filters are helpful, but there are a few limitations. When filtering by role, it shows the available hours for everyone in that role, but then it goes directly into the entire list of projects. Adding flexibility in the hierarchy of the way the data is displayed is what I'm hoping to achieve.
I believe the current amount of custom forms you can add is 10. If we could add more, especially to requests and projects, that would be wonderful. We have a lot of long forms to avoid this limit and they are too long. We create a lot of assets in one project so this would be helpful.
We would like to be able to highlight when creating updates and the ability to add highlights to existing updates to call out crucial information and allow for clearer understanding of needs.
Include an "Apply" button with Layout Template setup. While creating an implementing Layout templates for users this will allow minor changes to be made and tested without having to leave the template setup area.
Cross posted from questions section: I'd like more control over how and when data elements are evaluated. Issue:You have a data element that accesses an object/property: "page.name[0].length"If that object or property doesn't exist (or you know it will show up later), JS throws undefined errors as soon as the page loads. Idea:If I could say something like "delay initial execution" in a data element - and in theory what it would do is only evaluate the DE when it's called upon in a rule that would alleviate having to encapsulate most DE's in a try/catch
In a situation where you have multiple stages that all have the same deadline, if you need to adjust the deadline it has to be done one stage at a time.It would be great if Proof could work like Workfront tasks - an option to select multiple (or all) stages, then update the deadline once and each selected stage accepts the new date.This should be either when first creating the proof, or for updating the workflow of an in-flight proof.
I'd like the ability to copy calendar groupings. It would make building a calendar a lot faster, since most of my groupings are 80% the same, with just one filter different.
Ability to collapse sections on a custom form to make building easier and to make it easier to find a needed section when viewing. We use custom forms for creative briefs and it's really annoying for our team to have to scroll so much every time they want to find the information for a specific asset.
Anytime someone is assigned to a task in a project, is the project owner or has had a project shared with them, they become in the People section of the project. All good. However, anytime a task is removed, a project owner changes, or any people change on a project, the old users are still in the People section of the project. Based on email notifications many people opt into, this means they are getting so many irrelevant emails for projects they are no longer on. They don't want to turn those off, bc need those notifications for projects they are actually on. When someone is removed, the People section should be dynamic to be removed from there too. Also, when we use a template for a project (which is almost always), and in Planning/refinement before changing to Current, sometimes we remove unnecessary tasks, but it is still adding those people to the People section even when we remove them in Planning status. Very frustrating.Lastly, when someone is deactivated, they should als
I want to be able to share a folder in Workfront with users, roles, teams and maybe groups. I want to be able to do this with both project folders and smart folders.
Many times for some teams, the whole team is assigned to a task (not individual users, but the WorkFront Team is assigned, like Web Team, or Studio Team for example). In the Team's balancer, it shows tasks assigned to people on the team, but doesn't show any tasks assigned to the Team itself. This is very frustrating and not showing us the full picture of what is assigned to a team and want to be able to see these and then easily reassign from there, like we can reassign tasks to an individual from the workload balancer.
The use case:Project Owners assign a team from a different department to tasks on their project. The team then looks at the tasks in the Workload Balancer of their team view (Unassigned Tasks) and allocates users and hours to the task.Currently doing this we are facing two problems, where the task will not show up in the balancer, and the team does not take notice of the assignment.1.) When the team is assigned to a parent task, but not to a child task. The task will show up in the backlog, but not in the balancer, because we can not plan hours on a parent task. However, it is important to see the assignment in the balancer as well, so the task is noticed.2.) When the team is assigned to a task, but there are also users assigned who are not part of the team. - It is pretty common that a team and not team but project related users are assigned to the same task. However, these tasks are not visible in the Workload Balancer, because they are not unassigned, but also not assigned to a user
If you try to edit the Planned Start Date or Planned End Date of a parent task, the date you enter gets overwritten by the dates of the sub-tasks. f the parent task dates must be a calculation of the sub-task date, then it shouldn't even allow you to attempt to enter dates at the parent level. Or, if it does allow you to enter them, it should give you an error message. The current way it works is confusing, because it lets you enter a date and then overwrites it. So if you just enter the date quickly without checking to see what it looks like after you save, you might be misled in believing your update was saved successfully.
I'm talking about a standard feature in MS Project which allows to collapse tasks at multiple Indent levels. It's called Outlining Tasks.It works something like this:When you select Outlining Level 1 - All the Tasks at Level 1 Indent will collapseWhen you select Outlining Level 2 - All the Tasks at Level 2 Indent will collapse and so on..If this is not clear please watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzHNHW5Xrzs to learn more.
Problem:We are unable to identify employees by Job Role in a project plan or on the project Workload Balancer.The new functionality only shows 'Recent Assignees'. We are a very large organisation and we now have to create a report or user filter to find the 10 Project Managers in Denmark, go back to our project plan or project Workload Balancer and manually input the employee's name.Change Needed:The recent assignments logic is very useful, and an excellent idea for smaller organisations, however, for larger organisations, we also need the 10 project managers appearing in the search results.Please implement a hybrid list of Search Hits of Recent Assignments and Employees with the same Job Role.
It would be awesome to have a way to indicate if due dates are firm and has to happen on that date or if it is ok to complete as soon as it becomes available (but no later than due date) - tasks especially it would be helpful!
When there is a long running project, documents start to be archived and it can lead to the project being delayed. If the document archiving could wait until the project is complete, that would be ideal.
