Trying to add the highlighted child tasks into a report, but not sure how to do that.

I need to add the yellow highlighted tasks into a report.  I have tons of projects using 7 different templates; however, I only want to pull in child tasks that fall under the parent name "Deliverables - All documents go in these respective tasks."  All 7 templates use this parent task, but the child task names change depending upon the project.  

 

I can't figure out how to do this....

I'm assuming this is a task report?  You could try adding two entries to your filter:

  • Task >> Number of Children Equals 0 [this would exclude any parent tasks]
  • Parent >> Name Contains "Deliverables - All documents go in these respective tasks"

I find using names a little fiddly (sometimes I forgot I have objects with the same names), so you could also change the last one to:

  • Parent >> Template Task ID Equal [enter the template task IDs of the tasks in your 7 templates]
