Conceptual organization of Tasks
If you want better adoption of Projects, Zoho needs to follow industry-wide PM practices and nomenclature. There must be one person at Zoho that thought up this design and thinks it's great. The rest of the world is struggling to make this square peg fit in a round hole. The way tasks is conceptually organized needs to be thought through and re-structured so that it functions in a familiar way. Please, whoever you are, let go of your pride and make this module awesome!

Backup and restore from another system

Suggestion - Task Templates Search Option
Can we please get a search option in Templates > Task Templates? It's ridiculous to have to search through multiple pages in order to find the Task Template I am trying to edit.
Gantt for multiple projects with drill down.
It would be great if we could see a gantt chart for multiple projects to see if tasks/projects are competing for time, which weeks will be very heavy, etc. Also, if we could be able to drill down in the gantt, showing just the project, then task lists, then tasks... Thanks, Libby
[Enhanced functionality] Task overview filters
I am working with quite a few different teams and I want to have a quick overview of tasks for certain teams (they work on multiple projects too - otherwise this would be relatively simple). What I am looking for is a filter save option so I can quickly switch between them, without having to select and deselect the team members each time in the task overview.
Repeating Events
Hi. I didn't see away to make repeating events. This would be a nice feature to have if it is not already available. Thanks, John
Zoho Project tasks - assign colours to different tasks
We have a second person temporarily assigned to our team so is sharing the user profile. Is there a way to assign a colour to a task so that we can distinguish between the tasks the temporary person has been allocated, and the general user?

Things that'd be nice to Zoho Project that I use on Jira
Hi! I'm a software manager and I use Jira for manage a backlog of new features for my products (we use scrum to control release some new features) and I also manage a support team that handle tickets (we use kanban to control e release bugFixes). Jira is great but too expensive for my current number of employees so I'm considering Zoho Project as an alternative. I've been using Zoho Project for 2 days and below I'll write what I miss on it and would be nice to have: 1) On Issue page, the released
Tickets vs resource management
I'm looking for implementing Zoho projects. It's a great tool for managing new projects! But there is one thing I cant figure out.. We are a company which builds software. We have a lot of customers which work with our developed software. Our customers are used to create a ticket when they want a new feauture or the find a bug in the software. I can see that this is also possible in Zoho. But what I can't find is the possibility to add the ticket to a employee his 'planboard'. Is this possible?
Duplicating Templates from templates
Because we have multiple branches with different employees, we'd like to be able to Create a Milestone or Task List Template by duplication of an existing template, rather than having to create one from a Project (if not doing from scratch), then simply change the names of the individuals responsible for the tasks. It’s kind of a clunky process currently if we have to create a template from a project.

How to create sub tasks?
Hey, How can I create sub tasks? I have checked the documenation at https://www.zoho.com/projects/sub-task.html, but it seems to be outdated (screenshots are of older version). Am I missing something or does Zoho Projects doesn't have the option to add sub tasks?
Next task
I tend to use the Projects view so I can see an overview of all the projects I'm working on. But it'd be great if on that screen it was possible to see the next "task" due, so I can see what needs to be done next easily, without having to go in to each project. I often work on a number of similar projects at the same time, and like to keep them running at the same pace, but it's not really possible to see their progress side by side in Zoho.
Project Planned, Billed, Remaining Hours Report
I am attempting to create a simple report that will list all active projects with the following information: Project Name Planned Hours (Total) Billed Hours (Total) Remaining Hours (Planned - Billed) The purpose of the report is to quickly identify which projects are close to consuming Planned hours and to understand how much backlog of un-billed (Remaining) hours are in the pipeline for resource planning purposes. Quickly understanding the backlog of un-billed (Remaining) hours can help our business

no support for zoho projects
I am old school construction guy. the support on zoho projects is non-existent unless I want to ready pages of material. why don't they at least have a chat? this is my attempt to file a complaint since anything I click on wants me to call a phone number.
Looking for recommendations, can zoho does this?
I am struggling to find a system that can do what I am looking for, let me try and explain what I would like. I am starting to do some consulting work with clients. I follow the exact same step by step process for each and every client. Ideally, I would like to create a master step by step checklist that I use for each client, each time there is a new client I would create a new project or file or whatever, but the templated step by step checklist woudl be the default. I would like to be able
Custome field does not appear as an option for argument in custom function - Issue Tracker Add-On
Hi there, We are trying to create a custom field for integrating our Portal to Gitlab. We created a custom field for the project ID in Gitlab. However, when editing the custom function, this "custom field" does not appear as an option for assigning it as a "Parameter Value" to a "Parameter Name" in the function's arguments. Interestingly, it appears when editing the Append bug parameters in webhooks. Is it a bug? Do we need to do something else to have appeared the custom field in the custom function
Admin and project memeberships (or how to get rid of notifications)
Hi, I would need some help with how to get less email notifications. I'm a project manager and therefor I've been (together with all other project managers at my company) set to admin for the zoho project. This seems to mean that I'm a member of all projects I happen to look into. Why is this? I don't see the point in being member in all projects. I don't find a way to 'unmember' myself. As I now in this way am a member of many zoho projects I'm not actually a part of (IRL) I get very many forum
Voting for Bug Tracker
It would be nice if some kind of voting feature were added to Bug Tracker. I work in Technical Support, and I know how easy it is for a backlog of bugs to start piling up, which forces developers to start prioritizing issues. I think it would be really useful for planning and prioritization purposes if all users who had access to Bug Tracker (e.g., Support Agents, Developers) could add upvotes to particular bugs. It would be great if there were even different customization levels for the kinds of

Timesheet data access
Hi, I needed to access timesheet data for a project from the time it started using zoho api.What should be the values for the view_type and day parameter in GET request specified in api reference for doing so. I was able to generate timesheet data only for a single day.
User Role Privileges
The lowest role we can set for a user is a contractor in Zoho projects. But that user can see his tasks as well as tasks of rest of the project team members. We don't want him to see tasks of other team members except his own. So, my question is how to limit a user to see his own tasks - not others? One of our projects contains sensitive/private information which we don't want our new employee/contractor to see such project information. But unfortunately, the system isn't working as per expectation
Project Active/Archived - used to set project completed?
While archiving some of our projects I noticed that when I set a project to Archived, it actually set's the project status to 'Completed'. I have noticed before that even though all tasks/tasklists/milestones are completed, the project is not set to completed (even though it is 100% done). If archiving is meant as a project completion flag that would be really confusing, as I might not want to archive a project that was just completed right away. But it would be good to have somewhere an actual completion

Zoho Projects: users informations
Hello people. My question is simple: how can I edit the users information, like, mobile number, first and last name, address, and so on? Thank you very much for any help.
Milestone API - Assigned By
Hi, I am using the following API (https://www.zoho.com/projects/help/rest-api/milestones-api.html#alink3) to create a Milestone. A mail notification is received from 'notifications=zohoprojects.com@notifications.zohoprojects.com', once a milestone is successfully created in Zoho Projects. Problem: In every email, the default portal owner name is showed in the 'Assigned By' field. Question: Is there a url parameter where we can pass the 'Assigned By' user name/email?
