Adding another one here - the ability to customize in-app notifications! Ideally at the admin level, useful at any level! https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115004146653-Enable-Users-to-Customize-In-App-Notifications-Like-Email-Notifications- Jaimeson Wennerstrum Periscope, Inc.

Ok, I'm adding this here as I just needed 1 more vote get Workfront to consider this idea. We're already at 44 votes as of this morning. "https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115001218827-Ability-to-add-fields-on-Project-screen-space">https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115001218827-Ability-to-add-fields-on-Project-screen-space There's some real estate with the project screen space (header) area that we are hoping to add quick important information for users to see at a glance (eg fields from the custom form etc) Being able to modify that area is key, some people don't need the condition and should be able remove the clutter and input the information they want. It could be similar to home/my work where we are able to add fields as systems administrators. Please vote for this. Thanks. Polly Co

It would be great if I could convert it and then show a mapping of the selections so that the current data is transferred with the creation. Benetta Perry APS

Hi Benetta We make an “in market” calendar for our emails by adding the task that is consistently labeled “In Market” in every email Project. For direct mail I also have an “In Market”task and add that to the calendar and use a different color. I also created a calendar for our design team using the field “Release to printer” so they could see their print due dates separately.

"https://support.workfront.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/115000250214-Add-a-Custom-Form-into-a-Custom-Tab" title="Add a Custom Form into a Custom Tab">Add-a-Custom-Form-into-a-Custom-Tab I want to be able to add a custom form to a custom tab in Projects, Programs, Tasks and Issues. This would come in as a useful place for me to store important information related to any of these items, such as: creative briefs, work orders, etc... Further, I'd like this form to be editable in this location. We absolutely need this feature. Currently there is 1 custom tab, which is the sub tab of Project Details. We need more than 1 customizable sub tab, as a medium to large size project with at least 5 custom forms. This makes the custom tab very very long to the point of losing productivity. The workers in workfront do not see the "jump to form" option. As the system administrator, I see this option. At a minimum, this option being available to all, would remove a little of the sting of out of this pain. Benetta Perry APS

It would be great if they could be used in conjunction with date fields in the custom forms instead of just the built-in planned, actual, projected dates on projects, tasks, and issues. For example, we have custom form field for date of deployment for our email marketing campaigns. It would great to have those feed into a calendar. Benetta Perry APS

Allow Reporting from status in the Update Feed While you can report on the comments users make to the update stream, Workfront does not allow for reporting on the automatic system updates (like a change in status) that display in the update stream. This restriction is hindering progress and improvements in our cross team communications. We need the ability to report on an automatic system update, which displays in the update stream. Displaying there is very convenient - we must have the ability to pull that data. Benetta Perry APS
