Zoho Projects - Editing the Project Description in Overview
Hello - it would be great to get a warning when you are leaving the project description edit area and you have not saved your changes. I have lost information numerous times now by forgetting to save any updates. Thanks!
Setting projects as tasks within other projects
Is it possible to set a small project, that would be paid for separately, as a task within another larger project? If working with multiple suppliers / customers to deliver different outputs that will be combined at a later date, it can be useful to combine all the separate projects into one 'master project'. For example: Project A - Make a cup of tea Tasks - Fill kettle - Put kettle on - Get teabag - etc Project B - Get Milk - Go to shop - Buy Milk - etc Can we set 'Project B - Get Milk' as a task
Default Project Filter set to "ME"
Is there a setting that I can make, that will show only my projects by default when I click the projects button?
Sticky Note - daily reminder
I realize that I am trying to use Zoho-Projects in a different way it was designed for when I am forcing a more personal GTD-type functionality onto the program, but still ... I'd like to try. There is a Survey (Zoho-Survey) I need to fill in everyday - which is not really associated with a specific project. I would like a Sticky Note (with the link to the Survey), or something like it, that is right there in front when I open Zoho-Projects. Ideally it would remind me & present the link daily. I

Email Alerts not listed for after a blueprint event

Have checklists show on on main screen when clicking on the task
Have checklists show on on main screen when clicking on the task without having to actually click on the tab 'checklists..' Otherwise, if a user doesn't click on the tab for checklists, the list could easily be missed.
Assign Client Without Giving Access to all Project Task lists
Is there a way to assign a client to a project task list with out giving them access to other tasks lists within the project. We are running around 10 projects teams who look after a specific task list (area). We don't want all project teams to be able to see or access other Task List and only see the Task List they have access to under the one Project. As far as I can see, with out that, We would be creating multiple projects by team for their specific task list. Not very user friendly. Thanks!
Project Start Date
I would like to have the ability to associate the Project Start Date with a specific task. Ex. What I consider to be my project Start date is actually in the middle of my project. All future tasks are dependencies and all past tasks are predecessors.
View All Projects and Manually Log Hours
Used Cases: 1. We want to be able to VIEW all the Projects and Tasks assigned to an individual in a single page when we click MY TIMESHEET > WEEKLY LOG TIME -- without a need to click the drop-down box and select Projects and Tasks assigned to an individual. 2. On point number 1 above, we should be able to manually log the hours by going into the column to log Time, selecting each row (each Tasks) without opening another screen to Log the Time.
Why are blueprints automaticly associated to new tasks
When I create a new task of any kind in a project, zoho is associating a blueprint to them. The blueprint doesn't have anything to do with the blueprint and the blueprint does not have any Criteria setup. Why is this happeingin and how can I stop it?
Can not bulk delete more than 5 TASKS
I can check multiple tasks (in the same tasklist) but when i push delete nothing happens. When i uncheck some tasks i can delete and i found that does not allow me to delete more tha 5 at once. Is this a feature? If yes it is a problem because i am now deleting in packs of 5 TASKS
z-Projects for organizing study?
Is anybody using z-Projects for study-projects? Not so much for "home-work", but rather for keeping track and organizing notes, progress, docs and next steps, etc. I would love to see examples and get inspiration/ideas on how to do this! (I am not a student or enrolled in a school, but an entrepreneur who needs to learn certain things for my business. So I'd like to gather sources of information, online courses, take notes and organize my approach & progress)
Custom Task View for Due Date is Empty
I want to create a custom view so I can easily call up tasks for which due dates have not been assigned, so that I can go through and assign due dates to them. Is this possible? I tried to create such a view by selecting "due date" "is" and then leaving the criteria blank. However Projects will not let me save such a view and instead insists I make a selection for criteria such as "this month" etc. Thank You
How to drive Summary tasks dates from subtasks
Hi, I'm struggling to work out how to allow a summary task or milestone date be driven by the scheduled activity below it. It would appear that I could have a summary task that is 4 days work and completes 1/9/19 but the tasks (work) below it are 400 days work and have dependencies that don't complete for months - and that in this scenario Zoho will accept. Is there a way to get subtasks and/or tasks to drive the dates for summary tasks? Thanks
Dependencies between projects
Hi everybody, we are looking at Zoho as a tool to manage our various projects within the team. The only question for us though is whether you can include dependencies between projects (not only tasks and milestones) since some of our projects are dependent on other projects getting to a certain stage or being completed. Does anybody know if that is possible and how to do it? Thanks!
Related TASKs module VIEW filters BUGS
Related tasks was a very nice add but you have to fix some BUGS I have many but i will begin from the most important When someone in a project with related view permission wants to see All TASKS there is no option and can only view My open, My closed etc. This is wrong because he has permissions to see also created by him, followed etc. How he will see all the tasks that has permissions? He cant, so we made a custom filter from my admin account and this also will not work properly. He can see all
Gantt Chart for all users
The Gantt Charts are perfect to track your %completed and see if you are on schedule. The problem is that only the admin or users that can see all tasks can view gantt. Why? Is is very important for a user to be able to see all the TASK that he isrelated with in a gantt chart. So with the %completed tracking he can able to report to manager that he will miss some deadlines. This option is available only on those the can access global reports and you disable the best feature to increase the employee

Hi, When viewing "My tasks" in kanban view we would like to be able to see the tasks ordered by custom status like when inside a project - not only by priority or percentage. Do you think it can be solved in the near future? Best regards Camilla

"Related to" view for Clients
Hello! Is it possible to set up Clients access (View, Add) to Tasks and Tickets to only those that are related to them? We can set those permissions for users, but haven't had any success with our clients. Thank you!
Use Duration and Start After to set time lead/lag for dependencies.
I've painstakingly built tasklist templates only to find that if you don't set lag-times, the time between your dependencies is not retained when you slide the predecessor tasks forward in the Gantt chart. My project has 25 tasklists, with ten dependencies each. That's 250 separate entries I need to make! Surely there's a better way. What if I could use the Duration and Start After times I've already set, and apply those to the lag times for dependencies? Even better if I could do this in bulk, or
Emailing Project Dashboard
Management's interested in receiving daily emails with project's status. I reckon sending them a link to the Dashboard (or the dashboard itself) should suffice their needs. I looked around but can't find an option to email the dashboard, or summary of project advance. Is anyone emailing automatic project status to stakeholders? HELP!
Users without access to All Tasks can not add Task lists
Why a user can not add a Task list and see only the tasks related to him later. The problem is that a simple user of a project can not use the template task list or can not even add a task list that he needs.
Suddenly users cannot edit others' project tasks!
We have been using Project for a couple of years very successfully. Suddenly today, our users seem unable to edit their colleagues tasks, close them off, reassign them to others etc - when they have been able to do this previously. I am the super admin and can do this, but even my co director who is admin cannot. Why is this please? What have you suddenly changed?
Kanban - NEED HELP
When I'm in Projects and looking at the Tasks in Kanban, looking at the Status section... how do I change the main categories? Right now it only shows open and closed, but I need it to show more than Open. I've tried to change them but the screen it sends me to is blank! Help?
Setting Task Order in Classic View
Hello- I've tried everything I can think of. Created a pretty basic template. The order is correct in the project template, but when I create a project, the order is strange. How do I set the correct order of the tasks and milestones? I'm inserting and example. If you look, tasks are appearing before they are even supposed to be started. Thanks!

UI Suggestion for External Task Lists
When a Task List is external, there is very subtle light gray text next to it like so: Task List 1 (External) IMO it should be exactly the opposite: Task List 1 (External). This is something you want to call attention to so that internal company information is not accidentally shared. Thanks

Issue with Custom Fields In Custom template.
Hello Team Zoho, This has been a issue where we are unable to Change the column width of the custom fields individually when we are customizing template. It is always changing for all. In many cases there are custom fields which are not always of same width. There should be a individual column width for each custom field which has been added to transactions.

Tip #31 - Dependency across projects
Dependencies across projects are often inevitable. While launching a product, there is often a myriad of functions to look into. For instance, a product cannot be pitched in the market until all aspects are thoroughly tested. Even as Sales and Testing are two different departments in a company, their tasks might overlap, causing dependency between them. Zoho Projects help you track your tasks easily and assists you in handling dependency a little more better. E.g., you can link the tasks of a Testing
Is there any way to customize formatting of Gantt charts?
Can I prevent automatic page breaks when creating a PDF? I can get a workout around by using the print option and scaling to fit one page... but that is an outrageous solution. Can I somehow control which column headers show up and the widths of each? If I use the print option I lose control of hiding columns like who a task is assigned to. I would like to get rid of the "None" and "General" headers on my task bar. Why on earth are those there? This may be due to have I have my tasks and subtasks
Remove or re-assign Task sync from Project to CRM
I have a project template that has a lot of tasks & tasks with long checklists. This project gets re-created and repeated every 2 weeks. From within the project template creation place, under each task's 'other actions', I've checked 'Add to Zoho CRM' for all the tasks. Now I want to either stop some of the tasks from being sent to CRM, or re-assign some of the tasks to another user. I can't see any way to do either, whether in the Template (which is most preferable) or at the active project level.
Project Budget and Billing Method
1. How can I implicate my filed from Task to Projects main page. I find a logic with a formula field, but no formula field in Project Layout. 2. Is there a possible way to be added other Billing Methods in Project Budget, because in some cases we are not measuring the hours and staffs and than this function is useless for me. (and this is predefined by you field is where I can't add a things). Please see my attachments
Cost Control for Cosntruction Projects
Hello, we are a "turn key" (Engineering, Procurement and Construction) company and we strongly need a solution to control the costs of oou projects. We are currently using Zoho Projects to control activity scheduling, however your app lacks the tools to control budget. Actually you can control budget, but only worked hours. This is a huge lack of functionallt since in construction projects supplis normally weight for about 65% of the total project cost. Hope can include this functionality in the
Project Layout, main view and exporting data
Hello Zoho Team I have some questions/ problems to ask abut because I couldn't find a solution in the tool. 1. How can I extract all Projects with all Tasks and customized fields inside (because I need my customized fields for example formula based). Have tried with DATA ADMINISTRATION > Backup, but it just gave you the already customized fields by you. If I want to export all Tasks with my customized field, I have to go project by project and it doesn't make a sense to do for a lot of projects.
