Big Picture Progress by Time Duration

[Hernan Franzetti]

Dear All,

I am using Big Picture for creating Gantt charts, and I have a question about configuring the automatic progress of parent tasks. In my project, I have a parent task that includes several subtasks with different durations. I would like to set up the progress of the parent task based on the time duration of each subtask, rather than on the average progress of all the subtasks.

For example, if I have a parent task with one subtask of 4 days and four subtasks of 1 day each, the total duration would be 8 days. I would like the progress of the parent task to accurately reflect the proportion of time completed rather than a simple average of all the subtasks. That is, if the 4-day subtask is completed, I want the parent task to show a progress of 50%, as it represents half of the total duration.

Could you please advise me on how to configure this in the tool so that the automatic progress of the parent task is based on the time duration of the subtasks?

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Best regards,

Hi, @Hernan Franzetti  👋  Welcome to the community.

I moved your question to App Central because this is the best place for questions about Atlassian Marketplace apps like BigPicture. And I added a couple of additional tags to draw the right eyeballs to your question.

That said, you'll probably have faster/better luck in this case going straight to the source: The BigPicture support team at Appfire.

Hope this helps,
