Is there a way to predict backlog for projects and to track actual start/finish dates for tasks as compared to planned
Hello, I'm new to project management and zoho projects. I have spent a few hours online watching some videos as well as doing some google searching but have a few questions I have not found the answer to. Is there a way to enter the required milestones, task lists, tasks and subtasks for a project and then come up with an expected project completion date based upon a start date? Is there also a way to work backwards and determine a suggested start date based upon a completion date deadline? (Much
Duplicated tasks not automatically appearing in task list
Last week this featured worked perfectly. It's not working now. 1) I create a task 2) I copy the task, and set the number of copies I want made 3) I get the confirmation that the duplicate copies have been made and then nothing. The newly duplicated tasks don't appear in the left-side-bar task list. If I close out of the task, the tasks don't appear in the list of tasks associated with the project. I have to refresh the task list (by clicking All Tasks) and then the duplicate tasks appear. Any suggestions
Date sorting in Kanban View
We use Kanban for all of our office meetings. Its a bit frustrating that the tasks will not go in order of date due. It would be a nice thing to see added any chance this is in the works?
A Couple Blueprint Update Ideas
Would it be possible to have blueprints applied to a task, even if they did not meet the blueprint requirements when they were first created? I.E. if they are updated and THEN meet the requirement, the blueprint is associated. I have a blueprint which is set to be applied when certain people are assigned a task. I tend to create tasks by clicking the "Add Task" button underneath each Task List in the Task List view. I just give it a title then hit Enter. Once the task is created, I click into it
How about the option to export timesheet data by specific project(s)?
Namaskaram Zoho Projects team! Right now, when exporting timesheets, we can filter the export by users or by client. It will be wonderful if you could give the option to filter by Projects also.

Add 'company' in the custom view criteria
Add "Company" in the custom view criteria would be very helpful when in a project there are more client companies. When in a project there are multiple client users, belonging to different companies, this would help in order to identify tasks/issue owned by diffent groups

Resource utilization preview when setting task duration does not update in the same way as utilization review
Hi there, Let me start off by saying that the utilization review feature is really excellent. The fact that it updates based on task completion percentage and hours worked is excellent. However, I noticed that the preview of a resource's workload that is displayed in the calendar view when setting task duration does not match the time in the utilization review chart. It shows the same amount of work allocated as when I first assigned the tasks. It's great having the feature of a preview like this,

Adding Multiple Task Lists to Milestones in bulk
Is it possible to add multiple tasklists (from tasklists template) to a milestone in bulk rather than adding each one individually? For example, I've created milestones named by month, ie Jan, Feb Mar, etc,. Tasklists templates are named TL #1, TL #2, TL #3. How to add all task lists in bulk to each milestone? So want to add under Jan milestone >TL#1, TL#2, TL#3 in bulk.
Start and End Date no longer required from main task dialog? Great!
When using the main task dialog it used to always force the user to enter a start and end date. Today I notice that is no longer the case. I hope that is purposeful and going to stay that way because it is an incredibly welcome addition!
Modify width of Name column in Projects tab?
Loving the custom views for the Projects tab. With the fields other than "Project Name", we can modify the field width. Is there a way to modify the width of "Project Name"? There's a lot of valuable space that is just "white space". It would be nice to be able to shorten this field so more fields display on the screen without scrolling. If this is not currently possible, I'd like to request this as an enhancement request. Thanks, Scott

Update Project Interface to better work inside Microsoft Teams
For Zoho Projects I'd like to see the following: Dark Mode compatibility for MS Teams. Even though I have dark mode enabled in Teams Zoho Projects still shows a white background. Less slide bars for MS Teams. Zoho projects doesn't quite fit inside Microsoft Teams. There's a good deal of sliders to view things. Fix View bug for MS Teams. In the Tasks tab if you click the cog wheel next to the Task List and click Chart View there is no way to get back to the task list view unless if you exit the

Project List Sub-Grouping & Sorting
Would it be possible to allow sub-grouping of projects in the Projects tab including sub-grouping by a custom field)? Also a default sorting? Our company has multiple branches which are set as a Group. Each branch has multiple crew which I have created a custom field to select within the project. Currently, I can only group by Group (branch). I would like the ability to sub-group by crew under each branch. I would also like to have the ability to sort by start date within each sub-group. Additionally,
Conflicts on zoho project Tasks
Hi We want to use ZOHO Project for scheduling our technicians. We have maintenance contract with our customers. We schedule interventions on customer sites. So we created projects for each contract and task for interventions. So if a technician need to go to customer I create task and schedule them after depending of availibility. When I need to assign a date I use start Date and due date on the task. But I realized there is no conflict management. I called support and they told me it is not developped.
After adding a new issue template and layout, project issues become disabled.
Hi folks, This is a real problems for me right now. I was setting up a new project type for managing our Zoho migration. I created a new issues layout for the project (zohobugs). This was based on the standard layout. As soon as I did that, the project's issues tag became unresponsive. Clicking on it results in no activity. The mobile project app reports the issues are still in the project, but trying to access any issue results in an error. In addition, it is impossible to review the standard issue
Ability to filter via search criteria within Task and Calendar view (we use this for content publishing)
We rely on tags for a lot of tasks. Currently Zoho does not have this feature so we create our own eg. #pub (for publish). ie. We "tag" a task name #pub if it is to publish content on a given date. As a basic function, we would like to be able to filter Tasks (including in Calendar view by task title search eg. by #pub.... so we can filter view only these tasks, ----- Longer term we would love to see tag implementation and features useful for tasks/projects that require a delivery schedule such as
How do I get the tasks which associated with issue?
My bug have a task associated in Zoho Projects. I wrote the custom function with this code: response= zoho.projects.getRecordById("xxx", xxxxx ,"Bugs", xxxxx); I got the bug response information but it did not included any tasks which were associated. How do I write the code to get the bug with task associated? I read the help from : https://www.zoho.com/deluge/help/projects-tasks.html https://www.zoho.com/projects/help/rest-api/bugs-api.html
Tip 43: Formula custom fields in Zoho Projects
The data associated with projects is enormous. It is almost impossible to evaluate data by inspecting every field. With Zoho Projects, performing complex calculations is easy with Formula Custom Fields. Calculations can be done automatically by calling the values from the specified fields. Consider a scenario where the project owner wants to compute the total cost of inventory. He can create a field for obtaining the cost per unit, the quantity and a custom formula field for finding the product

How do you create user groups in Zoho Projects?
in Zoho Projects, when we send a message to a user in comment, we typically type @username and the user name comes up and we select it their name... is there a way we can send to a group email address so that everyone gets the message and we don't have to keep typing everyones name?
Divide Members into Teams?
I'm working on a big project and all the members are divided into teams, eg. Marketing team, PR team, Technical team etc. Is there a way I can divide everyone into teams so they can email/ communicate with each other and share files etc. easily? I just don't want tasks of one team to clutter up the space for the other team. I know I can divide them into projects, but then I won't have a comprehensive calendar for the whole project. What's the best way?
Zoho Forms to Projects?
Here is my intended workflow- I have a bunch of IT Projects that require info from the client. I would want to contact the client, tell them about the project, then mark that 'contact' task off in Projects. I want that 'task completion' to trigger an email to be sent to the client with the form link so they can fill it out, then the info to come back into Projects. Am I thinking about this the wrong way? Is there an easier way?
For Calendar, please add a Day view besides the month view
I highly recommend to Zoho Projects Team to develop a Day view for the Calendar function.

Common users vs. Client Users vs. Freelancers
Dear Zoho Projects Team, We've started exploring Zoho Projects again and got an issue with licensing/pricing and freelancers (users who works freelance). That's a very common situation nowadays when you hire external users (freelancers) to do some work for your projects. They can be designers, programmers, writers and so on. They are not part of your organization, they are not even contractors. Usually, they do small work, 2-5 hours at all for a particular task, get paid and disappear. So, usually
Reporting at Project Group level
I've got a number of projects falling under project groups. Is there any way to report at this higher level (e.g. number of tasks completed in the project group, etc), or is it only possible at individual project level? This is a bit of a showstopper for me - I'm evaluating PPM tools for a large programme of work and we don't want to be creating dashboards manually for executive management.
