Hey Team, is there a way to customize the "name" that comes out when you send a proof? It comes from a generic email address, we were hoping instead of our name it would just say "our company name Proofing" or something like that? Any ideas? thanks! 

Struggling to get this to work. I'm hoping to get a View column to be used on the Templates page that displays the total Planned Hours in teach Template for a specific roleID. Is this possible?

My manager exported some utilization data from Planner.  The actual hours for a particular user seemed low, and we realized it was because this user had logged hours for tasks to which she had not been assigned.  We're trying to determine how widespread this issue might be.I built an hours report, and I first tried filtering where the owner ID does not equal the assigned to IDownerID=FIELD:task:assignedToID ownerID_Mod=neThis did pull records we're looking for, but it also pulled records where the person logging the hours was an assignee on the task but not the primary assignee.Is there a way to filter out the latter records?  I tried experimenting with different variations of my filter (including using assignmentsListString and assignmentsUsersMM), all without success.  Does anyone know how to filter on hours logged by non-assignees?

We're implementing a new request process and need to close out a request queue. If I archive it will the active requests remain active? Thanks Justin

Hi Folks,   I invite you to save and use the following super helpful URL:   https://experienceleague.adobe.com/search.html#q=doug_den_hoed__atappstore&sort=relevancy%2520descending&f:el_product=%5BWorkfront%5D   I personally keep as a shortcut on my desktop, and whenever I want to search with Adobe Experience League for something that is related to Workfront I then simply:   double click that shortcut edit the URL to replace the doug_den_hoed__atappstore default with whatever phrase is of interest (e.g. cautionary tale), then click enter to return the results, which (9 times out of 10) returns what I'm after within the first few results   Regards, Doug   NOTE: originally, this was the link, but it now fails, so I replaced it on May 14, 2025 with the version above     https://experienceleaguecommunities.adobe.com/t5/custom/page/page-id/GlobalSearch#q=doug_den_hoed__atappstore&sort=relevancy&f:el_product=[Workf

Hi,  We currently are having due dates that vary on projects between time zones (IST vs MST/EST) that throw off deadlines and in our instance we have specific schedules for the 2 as well as exception dates (holiday calendars). We thought we had found a solution under the project preferences when working with Workfront support and for awhile things seemed to work. However, recently we are now seeing the same schedules issues occurring and different due dates in different time zones that are causing items to be late. In a recent example we had the Diwali holiday fall in between the duration of a task and because of this exception date it pushed this task due date further out then just the time zone. When working with Workfront support on this recently example, they advised that the schedules are working as they are set to, which is fine, their recommendation was to have our Global teams set there work laptops to the home office time zone and this will not cause delays in p

Does anyone have any good recommendations for comparing task planned hours vs. actual hours at the daily level for a specific user? I'm seeing all the pieces I'd need in isolation, but can't figure out how to bring them together into the WLB or a report: I can see actual hours logged against a project/task per day via a reportI can see planned hour allocations per day via the Workload Balancer But I can't see actual hours in the Workload Balancerand I can't drill the Planner down to individual daysand I can't pull the planned hours allocations from the WLB per day into any reports Barring something native in WF, does anyone have recommendations on third-party scheduling tools that Fusion can easily pass data into?

I have created a Fusion scenario to add a new item to a list in sharepoint.  All fields populate as expected except Requestor which is a Person or Group Type.   If I subsequently edit the item directly in the sharepoint list, I can enter the same name I pass from Fusion, the name is found and after I select it the field is populated.   My feeling is that sharepoint is expecting a specific format for the name but I'm unable to determine what is expected.   Fusion ModuleMicrosoft Share Point Online - Create An Item Fusion Module item Key format Sharepoint List Field 

When copying the link to a project, (or task, or anything in Workfront), it used to paste into an email, teams chat, or excel doc (or anywhere else) as the title to the project. Now, it shows experience.adobe.com... etc. and a random box without any relevant information shows.  Is this something that will change? Why does it have to be like this? 

I am having an issue where I have users assigned to tasks however their hours are showing zero. This changed when I updated the task assignments to be their job role names instead of their actual user name because I am working with 300+ projects and want to resource level. Any insight into why their hours might be showing zero if they're assigned to a task with hours? Also note that each of the project tasks are set to start and end during work hours. 

We have 100's of old document (not proof) approval requests in Workfront that are either no longer needed. Ideally, I'd like to cancel them all, but I'd especially like to start with cancelling the document approval requests that are between users that are no longer with our company (so both the requestor and the approver are no longer active in Workfront) because at least in that scenario, no one would get an email notification that their document approval request has been canceled. I would then follow-up with a scenario that I could use to capture stale requests between active users (or a mix of active users and inactive users, depending on which side of the approval they are on), and I would temporarily turn off the "document approval request has been cancelled" notification emails for active users. Would anyone be able to explain to a Fusion newbie (and I mean newbie, I have only had Fusion for 1 month) what scenario I could write to attempt this?

I have requirement to replace comma with semicolon. I tried String replace function, but it didn't work i think it is not considering semicolon. If I use other characters instead of semi colon it is getting replaced properly. Is there any way to escape semicolon.

We have a drop down list of all our properties in our custom project intake form. It's long, old and needs to be updated. Is there a way to export that drop down list with all the options so I can get it marked up by a copy editor? 

Hello!  I'm working on a scenario that will automate our project closure process, we have a Project Summary Details form on all of our projects that needs to the data mapped before we can close the project.  Im currently in the mapping stage of the scenario and keep running into this issue:my first module is a Watch Record module that watches for projects that are marked 100% complete, followed by a read record module to get the information from that project, and then a search Task module to search for a certain task within the results of the watch module and keep getting an error result: Missing value of required parameter 'ID'.  I've tested this two ways, 1 targeting the watch record module and second targeting the read a record module, as they both output an IDand neither of them work when tested. Any assistance is appreciated, thank you!     

Hello, I am attempting to run a scenario that will export a report and send it to a destination on my desktop. Is this possible and if so what is the best method to go about it?

Hi all, does anyone know if there's a way to add a column to a Proof Approval Report that pulls the issue name and its owner name that the proof was uploaded to? (here proof is part of the task in a project which was resolved by the issue)
