Link Custom Fields with Start/End Dates in Selected Tasks within Projects for Enhanced Overview
Link Custom Fields with Start/End Dates in Selected Tasks within Projects for Enhanced Overview
Description: I'm advocating for a feature to link dates in selected tasks within a project with custom fields. This is aimed at facilitating a clearer portfolio overview, where we can compare different projects against each other in a table view. Additionally, this feature would streamline data extraction for third-party services, allowing for a more graphical representation of planned dates for clients, for instance.
Example Solution: When creating a Custom Field, I'd like to be able to search for a task in a Blueprint and then choose whether it's the Start/End date that should be reflected. Subsequently, the date will be populated from all projects containing that task and displayed on the project row. If dates are adjusted in the schedule, the dates in the Custom field would automatically adjust accordingly. This flexibility would allow for more customizable reports and other materials.
This would greatly simplify our processes.
Many Thanks,
Davide

Thank you for including this visual reference, Davide Bellman! I've shared it with our relevant team 👍
I would like to have the same feature, but I do have a flexibility to define my process in both directions:
a) Update task due date -> information goes to project custom field
b) Update project custom field -> information goes to task due date
