Any decisions or progress on this yet?

At minimum give us an option to bypass parent statuses and just click done without having to open the task or menu. Checklist doesn't work as I need the subtasks to be added in another list.

Hey, ClickUp, could you put the AI stuff on hold for a sec and revisit aging requests like this one, please?

To add context, a user might use a list to track a workflow of projects, but within a project, subtasks might have a simpler workflow. At the list/parent task level, you might have one set of statues that track the parent task's way through the workflow. But subtasks might be more like to-do items within the parent task and might have simpler needs like to-do, in progress, on hold, and done. Right now, either one or the sets of statuses doesn't make sense, or we have to compromise with a set of statuses that doesn't perfectly work for either parent or sub tasks.

Is there any update on this? The last update was that they were exploring it over a year ago.

I would recommend using custom fields for statuses.. I use one simple clickup status for all tasks ie todo/ done (some use todo/in progress/done). However I use multiple custom fields to achieve the granularity required to manage projects/tasks/subtasks in progress. I think stock clickup statuses are a nightmare and best avoided. I learnt this early and don't use them ouside of todo/done. I would encourage Clickup to scrap statuses completely and migrate them to custom fields. Then users get to choose whatever statuses they want for each item (eg Folder, Subfolder, List, task, subtask). Also there is much more control over custom field permissions. However Clickup definitely need to review the platform's permission structure. eg subtask permissions

Hi. Is there any progress with this functionality? Without it, we have quite a mess of statuses.

very keen to get this feature! any updates since the pinned survey above is coming up to a year old...

Caroline Ginty I have responded to the survey you shared. Hopefully we receive more updates on this feature request.

Can we please have an update on this?

Hi, is there an update on this yet? We really need to have different statuses for subtasks as the ones set for a Task don't make sense when applied to a subtask. Thanks
