This script is designed to aggregate the value of a custom field (e.g., "Actual Cost") from a subtask and add it to the corresponding custom field of its parent task. The workflow can be extended by implementing a rule that triggers this script whenever the subtask's custom field is updated.

Key Considerations:

  • Single Update Application: This script is intended for scenarios where the custom field value is updated once. If the field is subject to frequent updates, additional logic may be required to ensure accurate aggregation.
  • Custom Field Handling: When updating values in custom fields, it is crucial to verify the field type and format the input accordingly. You can determine the field type by inspecting the task's page.

Code Workflow:

  1. Retrieve Subtask Details:

    • Fetches the subtask details using getRecordById.
    • Extracts the custom field value for "Actual Cost."
  2. Retrieve Parent Task Details:

    • Fetches the parent task details using getRecordById.
    • Extracts the custom field value for "Actual Cost."
  3. Calculate Total Cost:

    • Sums the "Actual Cost" values from the subtask and the parent task.
  4. Update Parent Task:

    • Updates the parent task's custom field with the aggregated cost.

This script provides a foundational approach, allowing you to tailor the logic according to your specific requirements.

      • Tip of the Week: Task Sorting

        I believe that sorting of tasks helps managing the activities in a better fashion. You might second it too . By default, the tasks are listed chronologically. However, you can sort the tasks either by its title, start date, end date, priority, created by and percentage completion. All you have to do is, click the Task Sorting option and select the required criteria. Few points to be noted about task sorting: This option is available in the Classic View only (within My Tasks, Tasks & Milestones section).

      • Tip of the Week: Task Dependency (Duration in Hours)

        I hope the tip on task dependency helped in understanding how it works in Zoho Projects. In a real-time, the successor task may or may not start on the predecessor's completion date. On either case, a project management tool should allow the users to set dependency between tasks. Ain't it? In Zoho Projects, the Task Duration in Hours option allows the users to set dependency between tasks that ends and starts on the same day. The Portal Owner and Admin role users can activate this option from the

      • Tip of the Week: Drag and Drop option in Calendar

        As the thoughts flow in your mind, you plan the tasks, provide duration and assign users. While you go through the calendar later, you feel that a couple of tasks should needs to be postponed by a couple of days. Do you navigate to the Tasks & Milestones section and change the task duration? is the question I have for you. In case of YES, I would say that the task duration can be changed from the Calendar module itself. All you need to do is: Drag the task bar and Drop it on the required date. Note:
