Show number of issues logged on a task

I'm trying to create a view or report that can give me a count of the number of issues logged to a task. The only native field available I see is for 'number of open issues'. I don't want to limit the count by status of the issue, I want to count all of them. Can I do this with a calculated field maybe? Thanks in advance!

Workfront isn't really set up to "count" through reporting. Because issues are a collection of tasks, you won't be able to get a record count of them. I would suggest starting with an issue report and then grouping by task information. Then you can use the summary tab to see the counts.

 

There is a native option in a project report to pull in a column for the Total issue count, but it wouldn't be tied to the tasks.

Thank you Kellie. Appreciate the response. I have created a separate issue report but I was really hoping to be able to see it in the same place. This would be helpful when reviewing how things went on a task. I'll submit this as a feature request.
