Progress Bar (Auto) should utilize customized percentage increases/decreases assigned to specific statuses
Jaron Flynn
Since the new "not started" statuses have been introduced, I feel like it's really about time that the active statuses meant progress is being made. Maybe even custom progress percentage increase for certain designated statuses

Progress (Auto) influenced by Status

As per title: an option to able the automatic progress bar to autofill based on the status progress.
This goes extremely well with Progress Rollup request.

Have the ability to manually input progress completion as a %. Currently it is binary, open /closed (0%,100%). The progress rollup to parent tasks could remain as calculated but the task/sub task can have a percentage complete. Even if the % isn't manually entered, perhaps a user based allocated percentage of completion based on the steps through the status progression (Not started = 0% , Started = 25% , In progress = 50% , etc...Complete = 100%

Weighted tasks/checklist items for progress bar
It would be great if the progress bar understood the "weight" of a task or checklist item.
At the moment, it just takes a value of "number of tasks completed / total number of tasks * 100 = Percentage of tasks complete."
But that doesn't take in to account that 1 task could be something that takes 30 seconds and another can be one that takes 3 hours. So it gives you a false sense of how far through you really are.
If we could assign a value to each task/checklist item, that would be great. Like a value out of 10 or 100 or whatnot.
Or it could pull from the "estimated time" data. The only problem with that option is you can't estimate time for checklist items.

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

Alexandre Zeiller totally agree on that, any update for this? I don't see the utility of "estimated time / tracked time and progress" right now if it's not possible to track the progress.
Evan Ranallo
Would be immensely helpful if progress bars can track task status progression instead of just 0 or 100% based on completion.

Any news on this front? Having to manually move a progress slider-bar back and forth is pretty lame with all this other technology in the app. Weighted Percent complete is NOT hard to figure out. Biggest problem would be setting option of weight based on Estimated Hour or Sprint Points. Everything else is simple. Its almost been 4 years since this was asked.
