Create a report to identify the Oldest and/or Newest task in each project

Hello community!

 

I am hoping to create a report that shows the Oldest task in a project (i.e. the FIRST task). We would like to track projects that take more than one sprint to complete and currently, we track the sprint ID on each task with a custom field.

It would be okay if this is 2 reports but ideally it would be:

 

Project Names | Oldest Task Name | Oldest Task Due Date | Oldest Task custom field | Newest Task Name | Newest Task Dues Date | Newest Task Custom field

 

the tasks could also be on 2 lines for each project, I don't mind.

I would do this with a task report. You can filter for the task=1 and then for the task number that equals the total task count of the project to get your final task.

 

 

 

You'll have to use text mode for the last task filter.

 

OR:1:taskNumber=1 OR:1:taskNumber_Mod=eq taskNumber=FIELD:project:totalTaskCount taskNumber_Mod=eq
