Feature request: subtask status rollup

[DucatiGuy]

I'd like to use MLO to manage my project, i.e.

Project

 - Section 1

   - Subsection 1

     - Task 1

       - Subtask 1

       - SubTask 2

     - Task 2

 - Subsection 2

etc

I'd like to see at a glance which sections and subsections have outstanding tasks when the branches are collapsed.

It would be sufficient to see an icon next to the name of a project, section, or subsection with incomplete tasks. However a nice touch would be to see the total estimated effort as an alternative.

I've had a look around V4.0 but can't see that this is available there.

TIA

Hi, DG. I don’t know how to do anything that accumulates estimated effort across multiple subtasks except for the project status bar, Maybe the project status bar would help you.

 

If I wanted to do this I would build a view that filtered for active uncompleted tasks and subtasks and then showed them together with parent hierarchy. This way, any project that shows up is a project that has active uncompleted tasks. In order to put together a sample I would need to know more about the shape of the hierarchy above the project. Are the projects at the root or are they in  folder(s)? What does the structure look like from the project up to the root?

I've faked up a screenshot (attached) to try and show what I mean. 

I can already show the estimated effort at each level.

However I want the estimated effort to be calculated from the levels below it. And I want completed tasks to be excluded.

Then I can see at a glance which branches of my project have work to be done, and how much effort is required.
