Any way to inline edit a Project Custom Field in a Task Report?

Has anyone found a work around to be able to edit a project custom field on a task report? We really need to find a way to do this if it is at all possible. 

Thanks!

Hi @mariacr2,

 

Only the base object data in a view or report (eg Task on a Task, Project on a Project) can be edited, natively.

 

Regards,

Doug

Since  project has several tasks - i don't see much reason to edit a project field when looking at tasks. More over, if you change that field, don't you have to then adjust it on all the tasks in that same project?

What's the use case here? 

 

If you must, you can use extra fields and Fusion

add a field on the task that will mirror the project field

Scenario 1, set the task field to the value of the project field. 

Scenario 2, when that field changes on a task, update the parent project field.
