Option to Mark Project and All Associated Tasks as Complete
Would you consider adding an option (a pop-up maybe) where the user can decide if they want all tasks to be marked complete when the project is marked complete? I know that we can use the mass actions to mark all tasks complete, but it would be nice to eliminate that step. Thanks for considering!

Just to clarify: do you think this pop-up should appear right when you change the status of a Project? Would everyone have the ability to perform this action?
Hi Anastasia! Thanks for your response. Yes, I could imagine that type of pop-up appearing when right when you choose "Completed", "On hold", or "Cancelled" for the status of a project.
Another option that would be useful is a selection in an individual's profile to, by default, change the status of all tasks in a project based on the status of the project. Something like:
Change status of all tasks in a project when project status is changed to:
Completed
On hold
Cancelled
I would imagine that only the owner of the project could perform this action, but that's not critical. Am I making any sense? :-)
Laura, definitely makes sense! Thanks for following up! :)
We use sub-projects within the larger project. These sub-projects are in a sense considered phases of the entire project. So I think it would be helpful if the opposite also happened. Once the last task within the sub-project is complete then it would pop-up to ask you if you want to mark the sub-project as complete. Therefore, we would be able to easily identify which projects are in which phase.
