Set a custom condition as the default for projects

If the Condition Type of a project is set to Progress Status instead of Manual, Adobe Workfront automatically displays one of three built-in default conditions on the project (On Target, At Risk, or In Trouble) as it progresses, as explained in Overview of Project Condition and Condition Type.

You can set your custom conditions as default conditions instead of using these three built-in default conditions. For example, you could change the On Target default condition to display as Tracking Well in all projects.
