In my organization we needed to create an auto progress bar that would take into account the progress of more "complex tasks" compared to "simpler tasks. This couuld be done using some type of coefficients of weigh of each subtask.

I have also noticed that if a subtask has nested subtasks, progress of main subtask does not affect the parent task. So, if I have a 50% progress in Subtask 1 and 0% in Subtask 2, my parent task is still 0% (as it only counts completed tasks). The desired value should be 25% or something along those lines.

I'm leaving this comment to let ClickUp know this is a great opportunity of improvement if we want to implement more advanced use cases in the tool.

Should be a feature. All the data is already there, all the user should need to do is specify which field is target and which field is progress.

Yes please. Important to have the option to track the progress for a 'task' acting as a project that has a large set of related tasks on another list. This is crucial to Portfolio and Epics Management

The best thing would be to be able to apply formula to progress bar, or to display a formula field as a progress bar.

A simple task completion to display progress is useless for us. We have tasks that take 5 min and tasks that take hours. Showing 50% progression because the 5 min task is complete is absurd. We would like to be able to display progress that take into consideration the time passed on the task, compared to the estimated time.

Formula would allow to cover many more cases like our

Would be immensely helpful if progress bars can track task status progression instead of just 0 or 100% based on completion.

With regards to progress bars (auto) it would be nice to be able to give a coefficient to subtasks in order to follow the real progress of a task.

Indeed, subtasks don't always have the same weight in the task moving forward to completed therefore adding coefficient coul be nice.

This is extremely usefull in tracking OKRs, Goals, Evaluation, and so much more.

Agree - Progress bars need more options to track against, even if it's just showing basic progress through the list statuses. Or to be able to apply a formula and view it as a progress bar.

Progress Bar showing percentage of tasks completed would be great.

Example:

I have a list called "Product Initiatives"

There could be anywhere from 1 item in the scrum teams product backlog to 200 in order to complete that initiative.

I would like for Stakeholders to easily see "23% of this initiative is completed." By percentage value and or by a the actual progress bar.

I'm experimenting with rollups and formulas now so maybe this can already happen.

I just want it automatic to reduce people not remembering to update, etc. We want accurate information in scrum metrics always.

I would really like if the progress bar was able to roll up all subtasks and nested subtasks.

This would be great!! I don't currently use the progress bars a lot but if i could customize what they're referencing that would be a game changer. Specifically being able to mark a comment as a Progress Point or an Update. This way when someone posts an update in the comments the progress bar can reflect that progress has been made.
