Bulk Edit Work Packages Error

Added by Diogo Batista over 9 years ago

Hi there,

We are using OpenProject in our company and we detected a situation regarding the Bulk Edit Packages. We cannot change the “Parent” relation of tasks as you can see in the files we attached.

Any of the other elements such “type” , “priority” works fine but the “parent” edition doesn’t work.

Is anyone familiar with this error?

Thank you

Hi Diogo,

thanks for your message.
I checked this behavior in OpenProject 5.0.15 and I could properly assign a parent.
The field is a little misleading since it is not possible to remove a parent using bulk edit but setting a different parent worked properly for me:

Is it possible that the parent work package you assigned was a milestone and can therefore have not child work packages?
Did it work when setting the parent individually (instead of using bulk edit)?

Cheers,
Robin

Hello,

Thank you for the quick response, i noticed that you added through the Work Package ID, i was trying in other way. I already tried to add by the Work Package ID and it was successful.

I would like to ask if you’re going to develop the List box functionality, like the other fields in the same form. It would be a nice feature to be able to search for the Work Package by Description.

Many thanks for the help.
