Question

Looking for help on a task report.

Does anyone know how to display a list of tasks, the planned completion date of those tasks along with that tasks predecessors and their predecessors planned completion date?

Example

Task Name Planned Completion Date Predecessor Predecessor Planned Completion Date

Task 1 1/25/22 3 3/15/22

Hi Nicole, a task can have multiple predecessors so you need to do a collection.

I have this text mode I've used in the past. It should the task number, name, and planned completion date of the predecessors for a task

displayname=Predecessors

listdelimiter=<br>

listmethod=nested(predecessors).lists

textmode=true

type=iterate

valueexpression=CONCAT("(",{predecessors}.{taskNumber},") ",{predecessors}.{name}," - ",{predecessors}.{plannedCompletionDate})

valueformat=HTML

Hope that helps.

Thanks so much! Unfortunately, this did not work for me.

It didn't error out or produce a report.

Hi Nicole, So sorry... the code was wrong. #facepalm

displayname=Predecessors

listdelimiter=<br>

listmethod=nested(predecessors).lists

textmode=true

type=iterate

valueexpression=CONCAT("(",{predecessor}.{taskNumber},") ",{predecessor}.{name}," - ",{predecessor}.{plannedCompletionDate})

valueformat=HTML

Here is what it looks like:
