In this scenario, the fact that Task 2's start date did not shift automatically despite its dependency on Task 1 suggests that amanual overridewas applied, resulting in aTask Constraintof "Must Start On." This type of constraint locks a task to a specific date, preventing it from dynamically adjusting based on changes to its predecessor. The other options either do not explain why the start date remained static or involve user-specific scheduling conflicts, which would not affect the system-driven date adjustment​​.

Milestones in Adobe Workfront allow project managers to mark significant phases in a project. There are two primary methods for associating milestone steps to tasks:

In-line editing a task list on a project: This method allows you to quickly assign milestones while editing the task list. It's a convenient option when working directly within a project's task list, ensuring you can associate tasks with milestone steps in a streamlined way without navigating away from the list view.

From the Milestone View in the Projects area: The Milestone View is specifically designed to help manage milestones. It allows you to view and organize milestones and their associated tasks in one place, making it easy to connect tasks to milestones without manually editing individual tasks.

These methods are integral for tracking progress and ensuring that tasks align with the significant steps of a project​​.

In Adobe Workfront, the "Assignments" field allows a project manager to see all the users assigned to a task. This field is useful for viewing multiple assignees on a single task, as tasks can have more than one person responsible. The "Assigned To" and "Assigned" fields are often used for single-user assignments and are not as comprehensive for viewing all task assignees​​.

The "Projected Date" in Workfront reflects the most likely completion date of a task based on the task's progress and any predecessors. Unlike the "Planned Date," which is set manually, the Projected Date automatically updates as task progress changes, giving a real-time estimate of task completion​​.

In Workfront, approval processes are designed to handle scenarios where certain team members must give formal approval before work can proceed. In this case, the project manager should set up a customized approval process that routes the request through the necessary stakeholders (management team) for their sign-off. This ensures proper governance and tracking​​.

In Workfront, to update the planned completion of a task, the assignee should modify the "Planned Completion Date." This date is used for scheduling and planning purposes to track when the task is expected to be finished. Changing the "Planned Completion Date" adjusts the task's projected timeline and allows for a recalculation of project dependencies​​.

Even though tasks may be marked as 100% complete, theirStatusmay still be listed as incomplete in reports if the task's status has not been updated to "Completed." TheStatuscolumn provides insight into the current state of the task, which helps identify if the task is still listed as "In Progress" or another incomplete status despite being marked as fully complete. Adding this column clarifies why the task appears in theIncomplete Tasks Report​​.
