Make goals progress with subtasks

Sahar Carmel

Goals by now are tracking only the completion of task, but most of the work is done by subtasks.

Please give us this ability so we can track the progress of our goal more accurately with milestones. Otherwise, we can have 19/20 subtasks in a milestone done but show 0% progress.

Dorit Palvanov

I agree too! Otherwise the progress isn't accurate

Agree!

David Christensen

"Every milestone that is completed should move the measurement. If the measurement does not move, then it’s not an accurate measurement."

"If people can’t feel the progress, why bother tracking/reporting? If people don’t feel the pressure of the lack of progress, why bother tracking/reporting?"

Ken Forsythe

Really need this! 
“You can’t manage what you can’t measure.” – Peter Drucker
Without measurement of subtasks, either goals are not useful or the hierarchy of tasks/subtasks is not useful.

Kimberly Vasquez

Agreed. this is needed!

Daniel Antoniów

thanks to this, we can see the actual level of task completion, because we have e.g. completed some of the tasks from one task and some from the other, and GOAL shows 0% completion, which is not true. You need precision in this too, and that means taking into account subtasks

Track subtasks progress in Goal Targets

Ce Rt

If a Goal Target's type is Tasks, track and display progress of subtasks that are done or completed.
Currently it only tracks tasks, it doesn't track subtasks.
It would be nice if progress is updated when subtasks are done or completed.

Ability to optionally take sub-task into measuring goal

Thomas Joseph

As of now, if I am linking a task (in a list) to the goal, the completion of the sub-tasks does not show up any progress on the Goal.

The current workaround is to make all the subtasks into tasks, but that clutters my boards.

Agreed, this is a needed improvement to the goals section.
