When scheduling a meeting, no ICS file is being sent

Task Inline Editing Enhancement
Hi All, Today, we have made an enhancement in task inline editing. In 4.0, task edit is moved in a single screen in a pop-up. We designed this in-order to make the task edit across the product to be the same. Let it be in Feeds, Tasks & My Tasks tab, Calendar & My Calendar tab, a click on the task title will open the popup and user can edit the values. Customers pointed us the inline editing was very useful to them & how much they miss that in 4.0. Based on the feedback, we have rolled out this enhancement.

Reorder Blueprint Transitions
Hello, The Blueprint Functionality is totally Great! Nice Job with minor problems so far. I made a really complicated blueprint and the problem is that i have many transitions available in many statuses.

Placing Project on Hold and Extending Due Date
Please let me know if there is a way to have projects due date extend automatically if it is placed on hold. We would need due date extend by the same amount of days as the item is on hold. Summary Project allowance 14 days, hold 10 days, due date automatically extended by 10 days (due to the hold). Example: The technician starts an equipment repair (project) and has two weeks allocated to complete it. Now if within these two weeks he has to order repair parts, the project is placed on hold and

Wouldn't it be better to make the 'task' a 'sum of subtasks'
Perhaps I have the wrong idea on tasks an subtasks, but shouldn't the task be a sum of subtaks. For instance: Clean the office (task) Clean windows (subtask) Clean tables (subtask) Clean coffee machine (subtask) Currently when I add the task 'clean the office' and state that this takes 'one day' and add the subtasks with durations that equal 2, 4 and 2 hours respectively. Now when I check the Gantt Chart or the Resource Utilization I see that I'm over-planned because I'm responsible for the

Zoho CRM and Projects together: consolidated To-Do list?
Hi, I'm trying to get set up using CRM and Projects together, I've linked the two and am able to use the portal. My question is: CRM and Projects both have ways of keeping track of "to-do"s for the team, but I don't see a way to put those to-do items together in one list. Is this possible?

Global custom view
Hello, Are there any plans to allow to save custom views in "My tasks" view? This is the feature I'm missing the most. I'm aware about custom views per project but this does not make sense when keeping an eye on dozens of projects with multiple users. Now, when tags arrived it'd be even more helpful.
