Hi Ivan, thanks for posting this question here! Project and task status attributes are a bit different, and at the moment it's possible to view the completion date for tasks only. This information is visible in the task's activity stream (as well as an update in the Activity Stream tab):

It's also possible to filter tasks by their completion date (or time frame). This option is available under "Advanced filters", as shown here:

Let me know if you have any other questions about this, I'll be happy to help!

I want to be able to pull/export a report that shows "Last modified on" date in a column and/or be able to put "date marked complete" as a column. I don't want to have to open each individual task to see WHEN they marked it complete. Right now, someone can mark a task complete days after it's due, and there's no way to export this data to see this.

Wrike - I absolutely agree with Heather. Our company would like to be able to generate this data in report form for all projects. I think most companies have a KPI or need to measure project expected vs. actual finish date.

I've discussed this with my Wrike contact and per their recommendation - I've been instructed to add completion date as a custom filed. This would require the user to set the date when closing. If the user is already changing the status to "completed" on a project level, should it not be date driven? If it's already date drives, can we make it searchable per the parameters in a report form?

Hi Henrik, thank you for commenting here, I can definitely see how this would be a useful filtering addition. It's great hearing about your use case, and the point about tracking KPIs is a good one. Also, thank you for mentioning the Custom Field workaround here, I think this could be useful to other users in the meantime, while we don't have the actual completed date filtering option. In case anyone is interested, here's how to do it:

  1. Open the Table View and click "+Add Column" at the far right side of the Table.
  2. Name the column "Completed on", choose the field to be date type, and select where it should be applied.
  3. Ask users to fill in this field whenever they complete a task.

I do agree that the completed date column must be there it is a must!

It is good that it is available in the reports, However this is not very useful in the case where we want to see the completed date of sub tasks. This is because, the way the tasks and sub tasks get listed in the reportdoes not show what parent task the subtasks come under. 

This is also true when we export a report to excel - where we cannot see which subtasks come under which parent task thus making the completed date feature quite useless.

Hi Dimitri, that's a really interesting point. Thank you for noting this use case here!

Are there any updates on being able to edit the completed on date yet? It's really frustrating not being able to create good reports because things are done on time.

@Anastasia - Any progress on when this function can be implemented?

Hi everyone! @David, you mention the ability to *edit* the date - could you please elaborate a bit more on that? Just in case anyone new pops into this thread, wanted to quickly mention that it is possible to view a "Completed on" column in Reports, but not in Table View, since they work in slightly different ways. Table View is something we're discussing and planning to update, and while I can't say whether this column will be included into that scope just yet, I do want to mention that this difference between the views is something we're aware of and it comes up during discussions here.

Hi @Anastasia, I was referring to a previous feedback request I made here. I have had several occasions where projects have been marked complete on a different day to when they were actually completed, which messes with planning vs actual calculations. I know you can add an extra column, but it seems pointless and a huge amount of fuss when there might only be a few errors to adjust and the attribute is already there in the application.

Any update on this from Wrike? I need separate columns for "Due Date" vs. "Completed Date" so we can see where the bottlenecks happened.

For example, in the timeline view, having a column of "Completed Date" after "Due Date". Currently, when I hit "complete," the actual due date disappears.

Today I was analyzing a given task. The start date was 14JAN and the finish data was 18JAN. The collaborator finished the task only today (05FEB) BUT for Wrike, in every place I looked for, looks fine (exception is the New Table where I was able to add the "completed date")
The two Gantts - "the old time line and the Gantt chart" show this task green and accomplished but it had a really big delay.

I understood that we can create a custom field and ask the collaborators to fill this new field with the accomplished date but this work around doesn't look fine inasmuch as the Wrike has capability - when the status of a project or task is changed to "complete", Wrike could get this date and show somewhere. If it shows in Gantt, it would be great... we would see the original dates and when it really was accomplished.

Hi M, thanks for reaching out here 🙂

Baseline chart in the Analytics View compares tasks' current scheduled dates to start and end dates tasks had on the date you specify. Tasks have two bars: one represents the task’s current scheduled dates while the one on bottom represents the task’s original scheduled dates. I think this might help in your situation.

There's also a new Labs feature - Baseline in Gantt Chart, please check it out too 🙌 and let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Wrike,

as this, in my opinion rather simple functionality request, started Feb.2017, can you advise when the new column, showing completion (or 'Last Updated') dates, will be added to all reports, charts, tables, etc. for review purposes?

In our case Wrike is also used as ongoing Activity Tracker as part of our Mngt Team (and other reoccuring) meetings. MT-members can complete tasks, but it's difficult to see the updates since last meeting without the Completion of "Last Updated" dates column.

Looking forward to hear of this development, and/or if this will actually be developed in the short run.

Thanks in advance
