Please enable sorting for more columns in Plain View
Plain view is an excellent view to work in, but I find the usefulness of it greatly reduced by the inability to sort by several major columns. Examples: When looking at Plain View for a Project, the first thing I want to do is sort by owner. The next think is by Task List. Neither is possible. Yet I can sort by Status, Due Date etc. When looking at Plain View in My Tasks, the first thing I want to be able to sort by is Project. Not possible. Can sorting just be enabled for all columns?

A parent task can not be made dependent on the completion of its subtask(s)

Resources are not Users and Users are not Resources
The good news is that we are committed to using Zoho Project because it has great value and functionality. The bad news is that there are basic improvements that need to be made. One of my pet peeves with Zoho Project is the blending of Users and Resources. Resources are not Users and the requirement to have an email address for every Resource is cumbersome and not practical. In addition, having to pre-register a Resource in a convoluted fashion is frustrating. Users are not necessarily Resources,

Change the assigned task owner depending on the task status defined in a blueprint
If a blueprint is being applied to a task then it would be useful to be able to change the assigned task owners depending on the currently worked on workflow status. For example look at the process of a documentation task where the "document writer" is assigned to draft a text. When the drafting status is finished then the task is assigned to a "proofreader". In that case the task owner should be changed to the proofreader. Both of the "document writer" and the "proofreader" should be listed as the
Trying to set up templates that include checklist(s)

Customized fields within Milestones
Hey Zoho Friends, At my company, and I'm sure many others, the ability to add custom fields to milestones would be super beneficial. From an agile marketing perspective, one of the main measurements we use is protectiveness and timing of milestones in order to plan and mange projects efficiently. If we had the ability to add planned time within a milestone and also state whether the milestone was proactive or reactive it would help with our overall reporting and our company initiative of becoming

Custom Fields in Milestones?
Very happy to see the new roll-out of custom fields for tasks! VERY useful for us!! That being said, we'd really like to see custom fields added to milestones as well. Here's our use case example: We use milestones to trigger billing, i.e. when all the tasks/tasklists associated with the milestone are complete, the milestone is closed and that triggers an invoice that goes out to clients for the work that we've done We would appreciate a field in the milestone that we could use to indicate the total

Archiving Projects - Losing info on Time Entry
I am trying to close out a project so that no more time can be entered against the project since it is complete - however when I change the status to "Archived" - it no longer shows the hours logged against that project in my Time Entry Export. This inhibits my ability to track utilization across team members. Is there a way to close a project but still be able to track the hours that were logged against it?

Reordering Milestones
It is good to be able to reorder task lists. It was annoying not to be able to order tasks in the sequence in which they should be executed. It would be good if we could reorder milestones too, especially to group related milestones together. Or, at least, the milestones should automatically get reordered, at least, alphabetically for us to examine them more easily. Narayan
