The best thing would be to be able to apply formula to progress bar, or to display a formula field as a progress bar.

A simple task completion to display progress is useless for us. We have tasks that take 5 min and tasks that take hours. Showing 50% progression because the 5 min task is complete is absurd. We would like to be able to display progress that take into consideration the time passed on the task, compared to the estimated time.

Formula would allow to cover many more cases like our

Would be immensely helpful if progress bars can track task status progression instead of just 0 or 100% based on completion.

With regards to progress bars (auto) it would be nice to be able to give a coefficient to subtasks in order to follow the real progress of a task.

Indeed, subtasks don't always have the same weight in the task moving forward to completed therefore adding coefficient coul be nice.

This is extremely usefull in tracking OKRs, Goals, Evaluation, and so much more.

Agree - Progress bars need more options to track against, even if it's just showing basic progress through the list statuses. Or to be able to apply a formula and view it as a progress bar.

Progress Bar showing percentage of tasks completed would be great.

Example:

I have a list called "Product Initiatives"

There could be anywhere from 1 item in the scrum teams product backlog to 200 in order to complete that initiative.

I would like for Stakeholders to easily see "23% of this initiative is completed." By percentage value and or by a the actual progress bar.

I'm experimenting with rollups and formulas now so maybe this can already happen.

I just want it automatic to reduce people not remembering to update, etc. We want accurate information in scrum metrics always.

I would really like if the progress bar was able to roll up all subtasks and nested subtasks.

This would be great!! I don't currently use the progress bars a lot but if i could customize what they're referencing that would be a game changer. Specifically being able to mark a comment as a Progress Point or an Update. This way when someone posts an update in the comments the progress bar can reflect that progress has been made.

yes please. Would love for the progress bar to include subtasks of subtasks in the calculation not just 1st level subtasks. thanks.

Our SCRUM meetings (and project manager) would really benefit from an auto progress bar for time spent / time estimated

I had to hack a manual formula to show a % of time spent vs time estimated, and even then I still can't sort or show a bar.

Came here from support as well. This would really help with tracking my work. I'm a team lead in a remote department, so i never specifically meet anyone in person. Working remote you need to put a lot of effort into making a meaningful connection with people. One way that helps is to have notes and record of things you talked about. Hobbies/life events/general small details you would pick up in person instantly.

So to make sure i do have a history i have tasks setup with subtasks to track my coaching's/1 on 1's/ and case reviews. When checked off new subtasks are created. But leaving the old ones completed under my main task so i can see the history.

I set a bi weekly due date for each subtask as thats my workload to get through my entire team. Every 2 weeks i should have most if not all subtasks done.

Right now if i finish a team members subtasks and new ones generate. My progress is marked as 50%. Even though the start date has not occurred yet. When new tasks generate it will dip to 33%. and will continue to show less progress over time as i have more subtasks for more history.

Having the progress bar only track tasks that have a specific due date. or a start date the day of/after the start date of the main task would be very helpful to visually see more accurate progress.
