Excluding Duplicate Parent Task Appearing On Task Report

Hello,

 

I am creating a task report for a large campaign and have an issue with what is being displayed. It's displaying exactly how I want except it is adding in a section "Parent: Name: No Value" for each project and listing each Parent Task Name under it. I just want to get rid of the 2 sections where this is showing up on the report attached. I already have the grouping set up with the Project Name > Parent Name - but I don't want these additional Parent Name sections to show up. Any ideas how to do this?

 

Thanks!

Hi @camostafin-1,
If I'm understanding the question, you are only wanting to see the child tasks, correct?
You could remove the Parent name from the grouping and then add a filter

Task >>  Number of Children  -  Equals  -  0

Hi @nickskidmore 

I do want to display the Parent Name in the grouping, but I don't want to include the section I have highlighted in yellow in the screenshot attached. This list of parent task names is essentially duplicate info of the other info on the report. Under the project I have 5 task lists and 5 Parent Tasks and it's adding this section of only the Parent Tasks, but the parent tasks are already listed in the other sections so it's essentially duplicate info that I don't want to show up.

Looks like we were typing a response at the same time. I tried replicating what you have (Project Name > Parent Name) but did not get the same results so I'm think there is something else you may have on your report. Can you provide a screenshot of your report settings perhaps?
