Adding task status to a project report

Hello all...

Developing a project report and would like to add a column with the task's status. Using the following text mode, but its pulling the status key rather than the task status name.

displayname=Creative Proof Status

listdelimiter=<br>

listmethod=nested(tasks).lists

textmode=true

type=iterate

valueexpression=IF(CONTAINS("Upload Creative Proof",{name}),{status name})

valueformat=HTML

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Thanks!

Hi George,

You will need to map the status name to the status key as part of your value expression. So your code would look something like the following:

displayname=Creative Proof Status

listdelimiter=<br>

listmethod=nested(tasks).lists

textmode=true

type=iterate

valueexpression=IF(CONTAINS("Upload Creative Proof",{name}),IF({status}="CPL","Complete",IF({status}="NEW","New",IF({status}="INP","In Progress"))))

valueformat=HTML

Hope that helps!

Best Regards,

Rich.
