Automatic progress from related tasks
Jose Luis Parra
Hi, I designed my Epic concept, (it could to be used by collections, themes, objectives...)
Firstly, I create a task, and set a custom field as type "Epic", to be classified. Then, every task that is necessary to achieve this epic, is added as an checklist element. I call them "children", and the Epic task, is "Parent". The children tasks use a custom field of Task Type to link to the parent task (Epic), so, when a task is done, I go to the parent task using this custom field "parent", and mark the element in the Parent's checklist. So I can see the progress of the epic.
This solution, could to be nested and to have several levels of parents. For example:
1.- I create a task as an general objective. This objective has some Epics tasks, and each Epic task will use the "parent" field to link to the Objective task.
2.- A children task of an Epic could to be a group of tasks...
The problem, is that we need a lot of work to maintenance the tasks.
It would be so useful if ClickUp add a new type of task list (subtasks, checklists and the new "children" for example, or a similar solution), so the progress is managed automatically, and it would be easier to manage the children tasks.
Finally, in my Goal, I include Epics or Tasks to achieve it, but I have a List View only of Epics to monitoring the complete progress of all our epics.
Note that I read all proposal and solutions in tutorial, suggestions... but nothing was really useful; so it is the best solution for me.
I attached images about my proposal that I use and it works for my team:

Linked task option for Progress Auto field
Patrick McCreary
It would be very helpful for our OKR tracking if the Progress Auto field had an option to included linked tasks. It would allow us to create tasks that link to an OKR, assign them to engineers, and see the progress in real-time rather than having to do this manually.

Task Relationships: Progress field Rollup

[From support ticket]
I want to display the progress % of a task (and its subtasks) (in another list) as a column in my clients list.

Epics: Progress(Auto) to include linked tasks

To see the real progress of Epics, would be great to include also linked tasks (besides subtasks, checklists, Assigned comments). Would help avoiding a lof of manual tracking...
Thank you

Update auto progress based on relationships
Teofrenz Ycot
Currently, tasks, subtasks, and checklists, and assigned comments make up the progress bar.
Please also give us the option to include task relationships in the progress bar count.

Linked Tasks can be set as auto progress
Mark Verschuuren
You can Link Tasks to a "master case" . This can be done by ## or by the custom field "Tasks" .
i would like to be able to add those tasks in the checklist. Or on any other way to track the Master Case progress.
by completing the linked tasks, the auto progress progresses.

Please this ... linking Stuff, using "epics" is otherwise non-value overhead :(
I currently just slam a themed tag at everything to have an easy quick win ... while ignoring epics at all ...

Usefull. The milestones hasnt the ability to track completion
