Task List Workflow Rule

Task List Workflow Rule

I'm having an issue when creating a workflow rule to notify customers by email of the project progress. I need the criteria to be TASK LIST STATUS not just task status. I don't want our customers getting too many email notifications throughout the project, only when the entire task list for each department is complete. Has anyone found a workaround for this?
I thought about using milestone completion, but that isn't a workflow rule criteria option. I also considered using subtasks, but there isn't a workflow rule to automate completion of the parent task when all subtasks have been completed. I think these are all things that could be beneficial to automate. Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks!

            Though we move from the traditional project management system (using papers) to an online project management system, we still prefer to have a printed copy of the activities/tasks that are to be done in the project. This way, we can carry the to-do lists with us for the meetings and refer when we are offline. The print option, available at the right side of the page, allows the users to print the project information across all the modules. However, this option failed to print all the tasks & milestones

          • 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.

            Often, we stumble upon tasks having the same status workflow. Repetitive task processes are tedious to handle, right? That’s why we have introduced Blueprint for task automation. Blueprint is a tool to organize tasks and automate them based on the workflow you design and the criteria you define.    How do I associate tasks with a blueprint? You can set the criteria while creating the blueprint such that when you publish a blueprint, the tasks that satisfy the criteria will be associated with the
