The highlighted information on this page refers to functionality not yet generally available. It is available only in the Preview environment for all customers. After the monthly releases to Production, the same features are also available in the Production environment for customers who enabled fast releases.

For information about fast releases, see Enable or disable fast releases for your organization.

IMPORTANT
The information in this article refers to Adobe Workfront Planning, an additional capability from Adobe Workfront.
You must have the following to access Workfront Planning:
  • A new Workfront package and license. Workfront Planning is not available for legacy Workfront packages or licenses.
  • A Workfront Planning package.
  • Your organization’s instance of Workfront must be onboarded to the Adobe Unified Experience.
For a complete list of requirements to access Workfront Planning, see Access overview.
For more information about Workfront Planning, see Adobe Workfront Planning overview.

In Adobe Workfront Planning, you can create custom fields to store information about records.

For information about creating custom fields in Workfront Planning, see Create fields.

You can delete Workfront Planning fields that are no longer relevant.

Considerations about deleting Workfront Planning fields:

  • You can delete a field only in the record type table view.

  • You cannot delete the primary field of a record.

  • Any information stored in the field is deleted and cannot be recovered.

  • When you delete a connected record field, all the connected lookup fields are also deleted from the record type you connect from. The connected record fields of the record types you connect to are also deleted from the record you connect to.

    For example, when you connect campaigns to another record type called product, and you delete the Product connected field and the Product’s Status lookup field from the campaign, the following are deleted:

    • The Product connected field from the campaign
    • The Product Status lookup field from the campaign
    • The Campaign connected field from the product.

    For more information, see Connect record types.
