Custom fields configuration

Added by Cedric TOMASETIG about 3 years ago

Hey there,

I warn you, I am an OpenProject beginner! Now that you know it, here is my request:

I would like to create a custom field where I can manually indicate progress for each phase I have. Currently, if you have 4 phases, one of which is 25% progress, I'd like to customize that and think it might be possible to do that with a custom field?

For example :
Phase 1 represents 20%
Stage 2 - 40%
Stage3 - 30%
Stage 4 - 10%

Of course, for each task or milestone achieved, the percentage will automatically update accordingly.

If you have any proposition, be my guest ! :)

Hi Cedric, 

We have a feature request regarding calculating the progress % based on WP-progress of child-WP: https://community.openproject.org/projects/openproject/work_packages/31306/activity
This seems to be very similar to your question. Let me know if it fits and I can add a vote for you. 

Have a great weekend,
Samantha

Hi Samantha,

The feature I'm looking for is the possibility to configure the percentage that each phase of the project represent and, in the same tame, that this percentage automaticaly increase when WP-child are completed.

For now, I do it with a basic calculation in Excel : 

Phase 1 - 50% of progress in OpenProject, this phase represents 30% of my project so the calculation is the following one : 50%*0,3.

Same for the other phases.

Not sure that this feature request is about the same thing.

Have a great week !

Cedric
