Hello everybody. I am asking for your help for this matter.
I need to automate the creation of subtasks on a project.
Process looks like this :
1) User chooses an option on a "Product" custom field.
2) Depending on the option, a certain number of substasks are created.
Example
Possible values for Product :
- Square
- Circle
If square is choosen, I need to create four subtasks named Tomorrow, Phone, Chair and W.
If circle is choosen, I need to create three subtasks named James, Jones and Martin.
Things would be simple if there was not about 100 hundred options for "Product". Each option can create between 2 and 5 subtasks whose name changes for each option.
My solution was to create a template project that is going to nest every possible subtask and to build an automation that would create some of the subtasks depending the option choosen for Product, but I have two issues :
1) Isn't there another, simpler option (cascading fields, etc...) ?
2) My client does not have Premium and I think I will have a hard time trying to convince them to upgrade.
Feel free to ask me for details.
Thanks in advance for your help.
