Export editable watermarks with revision date and time
PlannedWe frequently export the document (or sections of the document) internally for review. There's currently an 'Advanced' feature that allows for a 'Draft' watermark. Are there any plans or feasibility to integrate the export with the current revision date and time stamp? It would help us significantly from a version control and review perspective.

Hi Tom!
A customizable watermark and/or ability to insert revision + date & time stamp are definitely a popular requests. I don't have a timeline for when these features will be made available in Workiva, but they are enhancements that our Product Team is planning on adding in.
As a workaround, Ruby covers a good example in this video that could work as far as inserting a revision and/or date & time stamp, although it would be a manual adjustment. To reiterate the workaround, you can now link into headers/footers in next gen so you could have a linked value of your revision # and/or date & time stamp there which you can update and export or send for review with that header/footer or choose to hide by keeping the linked value blank.
In the meantime, I've shared your requests here with our Product Team for their consideration. Let me know what questions you have for me, or if you need anything else. Thanks again and chat soon!0
