Waiting for this too.

It's quite basic stuff to have all the "parents" to hold the "summary" of the children so we can have a calculated field which on top represents a whole total.

Any new on this ? Absolutly need calculation/formulas options on a Custom field !

Re the title of this feature request:

So, how would that work? I would presume (based on how permissions flow - down) and the fact that you enter a parent task before a subtask, that the variable data in a field from the parent could be inherited by its' subtask(s). Additionally, it would be great if you had the ability, when creating a subtask, that you can choose what you want - refer to my diagram.

Also, instead of duplicating the inherited data (behind the scenes in your backend, make it a roll-up - or in this case a roll-down - hee hee!) to try and keep the database as clean as possible, mitigating duplication errors.

I really want to use the value of the rollup field in a formula but even after asking the rollup to sum it will not let you add it to a formula even though it looks like a number. I have to manually type it in to another field. This feels like it is a basic bug that just need to be fixed.

Please develop this option, i really need it!!

Eehhh... another example of "Wow, I like this feature! I do not have to use Excel at all! "Wait... no sum option from sub-tasks to main task. It can't be right, this is so basic functionality, no way they left this out." "Oh.... ehh... Hello, Excel, my old friend"

Any updates now? This request has been pending for 5 years. Even AI features have launched since then.

2025 bumping this again. This would be huge for our organization. Please make it happen Clickup!

Absolutely, that would be very helpful!

What is the status of this request? Thank you !
