joint time shift of tasks and assigned subtasks

Added by Dirk Eisentraut 10 months ago

We would like to use OpenProject to plan certification procedures. These procedures are strictly structured in time sequences. The structure should be specified using a template.
So far I haven't found a function that allows projects or phases (e.g. tasks with assigned sub-tasks) to be shifted in time without destroying the chronological structure (not only "followed  by" but including the concrete time sequence). In simple case by applying a delta to the end date of all sub items. 
The only workaround seems to be using the "OpenProjectAPI.xlsm", which is much time-consuming. Am I missing a function or is it a matter of programming an own frontend to shift task blocks in time?

Does anyone have such a frontend already implemented and under what conditions could we adopt it?

Hi Dirk,

AFAIK this is a missing feature in OP. It would be valuable to be able to shift a whole project, say, X days into the future, without changing anything within the project. Just grab that bar in the GANTT chart and move it. Like in ClickUp.

Would be possible to do with a script. I think all you would need to have is the project number and the shift in days. I think that should work. But it should be part of the core program, I agree.

Daniel
