How to display subtasks in a list

Postby ssharma » Wed Jan 29, 2014 9:59 pm

Hi Friends!
Is there a way to display all nested subtasks for a task on the same page as the parent task? Usually you need to click on the parent task and then its subtasks are displayed.

Thanks,
Shiv.

Hello.
You can use calculated scripts for UDF.

Hi Petr!
Sorry, can you please explain further about using UDF for this purpose?

Also, when I use a filter with "Deep Search" option, I see the subtasks also. Is there a way I can display parent task number for the subtasks? That will be sufficient for my purpose.

Thanks!

You create a user defined field (UDF) with type Text. Then you write the script and locate it in the etc/plugins/scripts/task_custom_field_value directory
For example: This script returns the name and number of parent task.
Code: Select all
return task.getParent().getName() + " [#" + task.getParent().getNumber() + "]";

Then when you go to view task this UDF will be filled by script with this value.

About the second question. You point this UDF in filter settings

Hi Petr,
Sorry to bug you again. Is it possible to change the order of the columns in a filter, e.g., I want the "Parent Task" UDF displayed immediately after Task Name.

Currently the order is fixed. The main fields (i.e., task#, task name, state, priority, submitter, assignee) come first and the UDFs come later.

Thanks,
Shiv.

it is not possible in current version, but we have few tasks connected to add this feature in future version.

You can use dashboards. It is workaround.

Hi Petr,

Further, is it possible to display child tasks immediately after their parent task and indented, e.g.,

parent task #1
child 1 of #1
child 2 of #1
child 3 of #1
parent task #2
child 1 of #2
child 2 of #2
child 3 of #2
