Setting up new users
Hello We have just started using Zoho Project an very impressed. However it is quite time consuming setting individuals up and then them having to add photo and change their username. Is there a way I can control this centrally under the Admin role ? Thanks Trevor

Hiding completed tasks
In "General" and "Upcoming Milestones" views of "Tasks and Milestones" completed tasks are always shown. It would be nice to have a possibility to hide them, e.g. a small button on top - hide completed tasks
Task List Templates for recurring tasks related to different milestones
Hi There, I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction with this. I would like to save a task list (or multiple task lists) as templates. I have several milestones that share similar task lists and recreating the task list under a different milestone seems like a waste of time. Any suggestions?

Mass export?
Hi there, The project I'm working on has a lot of file contributors. So, at the end of the project, there will be a large library of files uploaded by different users. My client would like to have all the files as a single archive on USB or DVD. Is there a possibility for me to mass export the files or archive in order to download them? The alternative is to manually dowload thousands of files, seems like something people might have run into before?
Feature Request
I would find it extremely helpful if I set a template so that task A should take 4 days to complete, but task A is dependent on task B that should take 7 days.....If task B takes 9 days.....task A should not come due in 2 days, but rather 4 days from that date. Are you following? another example: If Bob can't design a widget until the specs are submitted by Jane(a task dependency) and each have a timeline to finish the task, but Jane falls behind, I'd like to know that it is Jane's task that
Files, Links, and Folders
1. The heading needs to be Files, not Folders, since folders should apply to both Files and Links. 2. The Links feature needs to be identical to Files, that is, Links need to have folders so that users can organize Links into folders. 3. Folders need to be able to have sub-folders. 4. Both Files and Links need to have the ability to be rearranged into a new order, the same as Tasks and Milestones can be rearranged. ggtrask

Can't Submit a Support Ticket for Zoho Project
I have been trying for two (2) days to submit a support ticket for Zoho Project. When I click the Submit button, the message "Filing Your Support Request..." appears and never disappears, so the ticket never submits. I have also tried doing this with different browsers. Please fix. Also, the reason I need to submit a ticket is because my $20/month account just reverted to a Free account with no notice, no Email alert, nothing. If you had a problem charging my credit card you should have let me
Storage space solution? Dropbox?
I estimate that I am going to need ~100G of storage space for my projects which isn't even a plan available in Zoho. I currently share the files using dropbox, is there a plan to be able to link to a dropbox file? When linking to a google doc, does it count towards the Zoho file storage space allocated?

Why I can't create a new project?
Hello! We have a paid version and I am using the account of our portal owner (coz I'm setting it up). Yesterday I've imported all our files (including projects) from Basecamp to our Zoho Projects portal. I wanted to add a new project but I don't see any "+ New Project" anymore, only "+ Upgrade". I thought paid versions have an unlimited projects, why I can't create a new one? Help us! Thanks! Annalie

Repeated and unnecessary pop-up requests to install Flash on the Zoho website
Hi A small problem to report: I seem to regularly (ie at every log in) find a pop-up from windows asking first if I want to view all content or just safe content, and when I click on all content, it is then followed by a pop-up saying the website wants to install Adobe Flash and a button to install it. I have installed flash (probably reinstalled actually) several times now and it is working fine on other websites, so there seems to be a bug that the website somehow is not recognising that I
Tasklist task 100% complete but milestone shows as overdue
Hi I have a tasklist with a milestone associated. The tasklist has one task. A team member has updated the task to 100%. The task shows complete, and the tasklist has no open tasks. When I go to the milestone screen, I can see this milestone is 100% complete (green bar) but that it shows in the overdue section instead for the completed section. Please can you help? Thanks Cameron
Is there a way to show the Task List / Task Name on the Latest Activities list on the Dashboard?
Hi - hope that question is clear. The problem is we can produce a list of notes labeled Task (green block) but you have to click through to find out which Task List / Task it is connected to. A lot of back and forth occurs. Similar issue at the Portal level where 'Activities Across All Projects' does tell you the 'in Project' but no Task List / Task Name. Thanks for your help.
Days exempt from Duration
Hi Is it possible to exempt days from duration calculations? I'm wondering specifically with regards to Saturdays and Sundays - if I set a task to start on a Thursday and ending on the following Thursday, I would want the duration to show 6 days, not the 8 that is currently calculates by including the weekend. many thanks
Folders having limited character names
When you go to documents, where the folders are listed it seems that there is only about 25 characters displayed before it puts ... cant it just show all the way to the side of the box or even have a scroll bar? its annoying because we dont have sub folders so we have to use the file names to help us out, and you cant even do that well. Also im aware that you can mouse over to see the full name but i dont want to have to do that.

Client view of tasks
Hi - I've created a client login. They can login and I can see at the top of the screen they can access the project I have assigned to them. However they cant see any tasks that I've created, or any milestones that I've created. Any ideas?
Templated task lists attached to milestones... Can zoho be used for multiple event planning based on templates?
Hi, We run several events in different cities each month and each event has a primary milestone "the event itself" and then two task lists attached to the event. The event preparation task list and the event follow up task list. there needs to be at least one other milestone (it could be a decision task) that is "go" or "no go" on the event based on signups for the event. Entering this information by hand is too time consuming. We need to be able to use two standard task lists as templates to attach

BUG: Search Results Not Really Usable
When I use the search facility in Projects and the results include tasks, it is not possible to manage the task from that view. It is also not possible to get the the task list that the task resides in - all you can do is open the task which then gives access to the task list. To manage the task (such as moving it to another list) you have to follow the link to the list uit currently resides in and then manually search for the same task again to move it. thanks
BUG: Task Dependencies - Counter-intuative
Hi 2 issues, as i see it. Firstly, you can't set up a dependancy to a task that runs in parallel, or I suppose you could call it a partial dependency where Task2 needs Task1 in order to be completed, but is not 100% dependent (other work can occur without the outpur form Task1: Task1 - 01/02/2012 - 04/02/2012 Task2 - 03/02/2012 - 05/02/2012 The other issue is that visually the tree appears to be inverted: Task1 - Open file Task2 - Read file Here Task2 is dependent on Task1, but

Accepting/rejecting tasks
I'm new to Zoho projects and was wondering... Is there a task state (assigned, accepted, active, hold) Assigned = project owner assigned the task, but the assignee has not accepted it Accepted = task assignee accepts the the task, but has not started working it Active = task is actually being worked Hold = task is stalled waiting on something else to complete I would like to have confirmation that a task has been accepted by whom it is assigned rather than just assume it is. For instance the person
gantt printing
The help screen indicates that I should have a tab in Projects net to My Home that is for Reports. I dont have this tab. I am trying to print Gantt charts but I only can print what is on the screen. It cuts off what is hidden below the scroll line so I am only getting part of the Gantt chart printed.
Changing features and formats
Hallo, So, one time it has tasks and milestones on the same tab header and a gantt view IS available, the next tasks and milestones are seperate and there ISN'T a gantt view available. A lot of different options are also appearing and disappearing again. Lots of little but chatastrophic annoying changes flickering around. What's happening? Is this a problem being fixed? .

'Granularity' of access by contractor or employee?
I have a forthcoming project where I will be working with a contractor in my office. I think that I would like to provide the contractor access to Projects, but only some parts of the projects that I have set up. Q: I have read on how to add a user to Projects, but I would like to know at what ‘level’ can I restrict access to the contractor: limits can be set on task? task list? In other words, how ‘refined’ or ‘granular’ can I restrict access? Thanks.

Private Documents with Client
Is it possible to have a private document sharing section with Clients only? For example, I have to provide 3 different quotes from Sub Trades to a client so we can decide what Sub Trade to use. I would like to use ZOHO projects instead sending him emails. What I need is that only certain users/clients can see those quotes/documents. I don't want other contractors to see the quotes. Thanks, Andreas
