Indicate Unresolved Dependencies After Task Closure
P
Pratik Wadkar
I wanted to bring up a usability issue related to task dependencies and subtasks. Currently, when attempting to close a task that has unresolved dependencies or incomplete subtasks, ClickUp displays a warning — which is great. However, if a user chooses to proceed and close the task anyway, there is no visible indication afterward that unresolved dependencies or incomplete subtasks still exist.
This can lead to confusion or miscommunication within teams, as it may appear that all related work has been completed when that’s not actually the case.
Feature Request:
It would be helpful if closed tasks that still have unresolved dependencies or incomplete subtasks could visually indicate this status — either via a warning icon, tag, or a small banner/note within the task view. This would help users quickly identify that there are still pending items linked to the task, even if it's marked as complete.
