Why are some tasks with cross-project predecessors not showing up on My Active Assignments report?

We use a "My Active Assignments" report, for users to track tasks which are ready for them to begin.

We've noticed recently that some tasks with cross-project predecessors are not

showing on the report, even though the cross-project predecessor task is complete.

The filter on the My Active Assignments report is:

assignedToID=$$USER.ID

assignedToID_Mod=in

project:status=DED ONH PLN QUE BLG

project:status_Mod=notin

status=AD AA

status_Mod=in

task:canStart=true

task:canStart_Mod=eq

task:status=CPL

task:status_Mod=notin

I’ve spot checked projects with cross-project predecessors, and some users are seeing the task on their My Active Assignments report, while others are not.

What else do I need to consider that may be affecting this?

I ran into a similar problem, and it was tasks assigned to multiple individuals.

When a task is assigned to multiple people, the "assignedToID" is the first person listed. It doesn't care about person 2, 3, 4, etc. only the "primary assignee".

I switched my reports to "Assignment Users ID", and that pulled all tasks a person was assigned to regardless of whether they were first, second, etc.

Something worth checking.
