Add record type name and view icon to publicly shared views

To ensure that recipients always understand what view they received when they open a publicly shared link to a record type, we have added the name of the record type to the shared view page, in addition to the view icon and the view name.

For information, see Share views

New grouping functionality added to the Request forms list

To help you organize information better, we have added the ability to group items in the Request forms page of a record type.

Prior to this enhancement, this functionality did not exist in this area.

For information, see Manage the list view.

Expand list of shared entities to display users

You can now expand groups, teams, companies, and roles to view their members when you share a workspace or a view with them. Prior to this enhancement, the membership lists were available for these objects only when sharing record types.

For information, see Share workspaces.

Multi-workspace, best-practice template for Workfront Planning implementation

We are introducing a template package to help you streamline the implementation of Workfront Planning in your organization. By installing the best practice framework template, you can create up to six workspaces that contain all the information you need to start moving your strategic planning in Workfront.

The multi-workspace template contains a global template that establishes core record types which you can use in any custom workspace you built. In addition, the template includes 5 more workspaces that you can use as examples and are interconnected to one another and to other objects in Workfront.

For information, see Create workspaces.

Global search for Workfront Planning objects from any Workfront Planning page

You can now search for workspaces, record types, or views from any page in Workfront Planning by using the following key combinations from any Planning page:

You can also search for workspaces, record types, or views from the new search box added to the Planning landing page.

For information, see Edit workspaces.

Apply additional conditional formatting to a a list of projects in a record’s connected page

You can now apply additional conditional formatting to a list of projects in a record’s connected page.

For information, see Manage the list view.

Added personalized names for filters in the list view

We have added the following personalized names for a team, group, company, and role filter in the list view:

The fields must exist on objects displayed in the view for the filter options to be visible.

For more information, see Manage the list view.

Breadcrumb redesign

We have redesigned the way breadcrumbs display across record types and records. Now, when you click More in the breadcrumb line, the names of the records and objects displays on multiple lines. Prior to this enhancement, clicking More displayed the names of records and objects in drop-down menus.

For more information, see Hierarchy and breadcrumb overview.

Allow non-admin users to make a record type connectable

We are now allowing non-administrators who are workspace managers to make a record type connectable from specific workspaces.

Before this update, non-administrators could not enable record types to be connectable. Now, they can enable the record types to be connectable from specific workspaces. They cannot enable record types to be connectable from all workspaces in the system.

For information, see Configure cross-workspace capabilities for record types.

Trigger-based automation

You can now automatically create Planning records or Workfront objects based on a record field change using Planning automations.

Prior to this enhancement, you could automatically create Planning records or Workfront objects only when you clicked a preconfigured button.

For information, see Configure Adobe Workfront Planning automations.

Only system administrators can share workspaces system-wide

We are now allowing only System Administrators to choose between the following options when sharing a workspace:

By default, workspaces are set to the “Only invited people can access” permission.

Prior to this change, the ability to choose these workspace sharing permissions did not exist.

For information, see Share workspaces (help/quicksilver/planning/access/share-workspaces.md).

Sort groupings in the timeline view

You can now sort groupings in the timeline view. For information, see Manage the timeline view.

Support user references for connected fields

You can now connect Workfront user fields to Workfront Planning record types by adding a new connection between a Workfront object and a Workfront Planning record type.

For example, you can now add Project Sponsor or Portfolio Owner as a lookup field in Workfront Planning, when adding a connection to projects or portfolios.

For more information, see Connect record types.

Real time presence indicators now display users in the table view

You can now view the users updating record fields at the same time as you by clicking the real-time presence indicator in the upper-right corner of a cell in the table view. Users listed in the upper-right corner of the record table view are those who have the same view open.

You must turn on the Show collaborators setting in the table view header. Other users may update fields either in the table view or the Details area of a record.

For information, see Manage the table view.

Updated sharing experience for list views

When you share the list view in the projects connected records page of a record with View permissions, the user you share the view with can modify the view elements and those changes are saved to the user’s personal preferences. They now have the option to save a copy of the view that includes their changes or to reset the shared view to its original settings. They can further share the copied view with others.

This update is available only in the list view, for the connected records page of a record when displaying projects.

For more information, see Manage the list view.

Apply conditional formatting to the list view

You can now apply conditional formatting to projects in a list view in the Connected records page of a record. This functionality did not exist in the list view before this enhancement.

For more information, see Manage list view.

Improvements to global record types in secondary workspaces

We have improved visibility for the global record types added to a secondary workspace from a primary workspace. The improvements include the following:

For information, see Add existing record types from another workspace.

Configure fields displayed in a record’s Details preview box

We have introduced a setting that allows you to show or hide record fields in a record’s Details preview box, based on the fields displayed in the table view.

With this new setting, you can choose whether to include or exclude fields that are hidden in the table view from the record’s Details preview area.

For information, see Manage the record page layout.

New Planning connection field for Original request

You can now add the “Original request” connection field to a record type. When a record is created by submitting a Planning request form, the name of the original request populates the Original request connected field.

Prior to this enhancement, the you could view and access the original request that created the record only from the Requests area.

For information, see Connect record types.

Create approval rules for requests in Workfront Planning

To make request approvals more dynamic and flexible, we’ve added the ability to create approval rules. These rules allow requests to be routed to different approvers based on field values in the request.

For example, if a request form has the field “Campaign type,” a rule can be created that sends the request to one person when the field has the value “Digital”, and a different person when it has the value “Print.”

Approval rules are created on the request form.

For information and instructions, see Add approval rules to a request form in the article Add an approval to a request form in Adobe Workfront Planning.
