Automatic dependencies progress
Julia Suárez
I want an automatic progress bar for all the dependencies related to a task, so I can see when a task is totally unblocked. I want this because sometimes we have milestone tasks and to track all the related tasks we use dependencies. So it would be useful to see the milestone task progress based on the dependencies

Progress Bar - Dependency
Brandon Deaton
We have a list called "Roadmap" that has a task for each version we want to release. We then set a "waiting on" dependency for each of those version tasks to the actual development tasks from other lists. However, auto progress bar does not update based on this dependency clearing. We have to then create a checklist that can be marked off manually as tasks are completed.
I would like to have a progress bar that updates its percentage off the dependencies.

Please add this alongside custom relationships as well

We have the same setup, with a milestone. For the milestone to reach, we need a bunch of other tasks and subtasks to finish first. Would be awesome to see the progress of those tasks on the actual milestone in %.
It would be a matter of adding dependencies to the existing progressbar optionsbox. Like 'tasks and checklist'

I don't understand how to use ClickUp without this feature. I have the following hierarchy:
Epics -> Stories -> Tasks w/ Story Points
I schedule work by creating a relationship between Tasks and Sprints.
I need to know the overall % completion (in terms of of story points) for each Story (and in turn, each Epic).
I need to be able to manage which Task as associated with which Sprint.
So far, I have discovered the following limitations:
- Sprints can't contain subtasks
- Only subtasks can influence automated progress
So I can't have tasks in a sprint that contribute to automated progress of the stories they define, but if I create tasks as subtasks, I can't associate them with sprints.
How do I do what I need to? Am I missing something obvious?

This would just be so amazing.

Progress bar for dependencies
Theo Scholiadis
It would be useful to see a progress bar for dependencies for a task. For example, if a task has 5 dependencies and 1 has been completed, it would be useful to see this in a "Progress Bar (Auto)" the same way it is done for tasks.

Hey Julia Suárez!
Thank you for the feedback. You can do that by hovering on the dependent task and seeing the "task status"

Waleed Elaghil: sorry I posted this by mistake, what I actually want is automatic progress based on the dependencies status like they were subtasks, something like dependencies progress % maybe
Waleed Elaghil
Julia Suárez: I understand now. This is interesting! We'll have it under our radar until it gets more votes 🙂
