Document Report that Shows Documents Awaiting My Approval in WorkfrontProof

I can't think of a way. Unfortunately the object type is "proof approval" so is only created when they a person needs to approve. :( Instead of an approval, it should almost be like the Assignment object. Like "proof assignment" so that you can get more info from the proof itself (instead of just the document version in Workfront) but then also have it include people who are just reviewers. I'm in meetings all day today, but I'll check idea exchange and see if there is something already there. If not, I'll create some thing and post it here. :) Anthony Imgrund FCB

I'm looking for a variation of this ability. I have a report utilizing $$USER.ID that shows proofs that are waiting on an approval, but would like it to also include proofs where the user is designated only as a Reviewer (not Reviewer & Approver). Is this possible? Cathy Kenny Tire Rack

Ah ha! Just a few more weeks ...

Hi - Coming in 18.2! Although, I did find out it will not be retroactive. So only completed proof approvals after the 18.2 release View this on Workfront > Anthony Imgrund FCB

Wow this posted in a weird way. I was responding to a very old thread about Proof Approver reports that had a partial answer to my issue. However my post didn't show the rest of the thread so my note sounds a little bonkers. May I rephrase? I am trying to make a "My Proofs" report. I have found the Proof Approver report but it only displays proofs awaiting a decision, not all proofs that I am on – ie I want to see a list of proofs associated with projects with "Current" Status or open issues, where I am a Reviewer/Approver. However I don't see a filter for this. The Approver ID filter is the only filter in my report so I would think it would show everything. Any ideas how I can make this report?

Hi Opening up this thread because it partially answered what I was looking for. However, the Proof Approver report only seems to show Proofs that are awaiting approvals, not Proofs I have completed approving. I have only the Approver ID filter and none others so I can't understand what is limiting it from showing the approval history of all "my" proofs. Any direction on how to get this all in the same report would be great. Thanks! Jill Ackerman

Awesome, Melinda! That worked. Appreciate the help. Matt May Stream Companies

Ahh you found an interesting subtle bug/feature. For whatever reason the Document ID (And proof ID) in this object is the ID but not the actual object! So you can't directly reference up. The DocumentVersionID is the actual object. So to get the project name - displayname=Project Name querysort=documentVersion:document:project:name textmode=true valuefield=documentVersion:document:project:name valueformat=HTML -- Melinda Layten, Senior Consultant Work Management Improvement CapabilitySource Phone: (484) 505-6855 site: www.capabilitysource.com email: melinda.layten@capabilitysource.com - we simplify your work so you can run your business -

Follow-up questions. Is there a way in the Proof Approval Report to pull in source data. For example, the project the document that needs approval lives on, and/or task, and/or issue? This is what works in the report but doesn't work in the Document Version Report to pull what project the document is living on: valuefield=document:project:name I've tried a few way "report up" to this information, but I haven't had any luck in getting the source when it comes to this report type. ------------------ To give a little background on why we are even trying to create the report rather than just relying on the My Work approvals tab -- the tab doesn't allow for any kind of sorting or grouping. Some of our team members deal with a large number of awaiting proofs, so they need a way to sort and/or group to effectively manage the proofs in WorkfrontProof via Workfront. If there is just some other way I'm not thinking of (a different report maybe), I'm all ears. Thanks! Matt May Stream Companies

Got it, Melinda. Thanks for pointing out my now obvious mistake. Is working now with the "Proof Approval" report . . . had accidentally selected the "Document Approval Report" Thank you for the help! Matt May Stream Companies
