Make a task automatically start and end with the project

[ChloeWY]

We're moving towards tracking time in Workfront.  We don't care about time spent on individual tasks, only what project it goes to.  In order to guarantee projects show up on user's timesheets, we were planning on adding a dummy time tracking task that spans the length of the project.  

Is there a way with predecessors (or something else) to make the start and end date of the time tracking task automatically update to span the length of the project?  I'm playing around with different task dependency types but haven't found one that will work yet.

Thank you!

can you just make it the parent of the entire set of project tasks?

Hi @ChloeWY,

Although less granular (which seems to match your requirements), you could also consider allowing (and training) users to track their time at (only) the Project level.
