enable project progress based on completed tasks in the new Wrike Lightspeed?

Hello Community,

Since we switched to the new Lightning View, we haven't been able to enable the progress of a project by completed tasks... is that still available?

It's disappeared also for me.

We used this feature a lot for high-level progress assessments.

I agree, this is causing a real issue for me as we use progress on all of our reports.

I'm having to toggle Lightspeed on and off to enable and it's not pulling the settings from projects generated from blueprint that do have the show progress option selected.

Any updates from Wrike on when this will be fixed or if this is hidden somewhere that we just haven't discovered yet?

Surprised this feature was removed. It was a major metric for reporting.

I was just informed that the Wrike UI will permanently switch to Lightspeed in 6 to 8 weeks. We have relied on Project Progress in most dashboards and reports for years. It's completely unacceptable that Project Progress would be unavailable after the switch to Lightspeed. @...'s comment about the Product Team working on this and "will soon share updates" was 3 months ago, and as there aren't any more updates, I'm seriously worried about this. I need to know that Project Progress is available *before* we find ourselves in Lightspeed.

Tuomo Suominen and Caitlin Grumley They removed progress in the first iteration of Lightspeed but it has been added back in. The way that you enable it is slightly different but it is there and is still functional in Lightspeed. Thankfully it was only a short time back in May when we were without this required functionality. 

You can enable it from the new table view in the progress column or in the project itself by clicking on "more" to see the additional fields.

Thanks @RobynJackson. I see the column option. But nothing is populating.

Caitlin Grumley I have noticed it can be a little buggy - Usually, I will do a refresh or open a new window if I don't see it populating and that seems to fix it for me. Hopefully, it does for you. If not, open a ticket as I've been using this feature regularly since they reinstated it a few months ago.

It's showing and working for me, in the project info screen it's called progress.

Please someone tell me what i am doing wrong - yes i can add the progress column in the new UI.  Can i enable it for all projects like i used to be able to, NO which is a big problem since a lot of my dashboards depend on this.  So I have the column but all of my new projects arent calculating the progress.  Robyn Jackson.  Are you able to show a screen shot by chance of where this "more" function is?  I am not seeing it anywhere.  IMO and everyone else i spoke to at my company are all on the same page - and we vote - Bring back the old Wrike :)

Hi Amy Sutch they have added back the feature where you can enable progress for all projects.

Use the old table view (not sure if this is available in the new) and click on the arrow to the right of the progress column, Enable for all projects is the top option.

The "more" button I referred to was in the individual project information, it shows when fields are displayed in the main view. It is in the top right and toggles between More and Less to either show or hide the fields. 

Hope that helps :)

Is there really still no ability to enable progress for all projects? Where did that function go? It is incredibly time consuming to add it back to individual projects, especially when Lightspeed has significantly slowed down the platform.

Hi Chelsea Rogers, welcome to the Community 👋 Apologies for the late reply. I was checking with the team to see what the plan here was. They are definitely planning to bring back the ability to enable project progress for all projects. It will likely be released next year, and we'll keep you posted on when it's available 👍
