As the majority of companies that use Monday.com, our users use the “My Work” area to see work that has been assigned to them - they can see the item name, due date, project board it is on, etc. However, they see everything assigned to them regardless of the project’s status — I’m trying to solve for projects that get placed on a temporary hold due to internal or external delays/prioritization.
Has anyone found a way to denote a project’s status as “on hold” and subsequently exclude these items from the My Work area? Or at least show them in a separate group where all items from “on hold” projects are grouped together?
I’ve searched and found no threads similar to what I’m seeking answers for… The only thing I can think of to make sure a user isn’t working on an item from a project that is on hold is to go through each project and change the status of each open item to “on hold” so that they show as “on hold” on the users’ “My Work” area. Seems like a gross misuse of a project manager’s time.
It’s bad enough the platform doesn’t have built-in functionality to automatically calculate a project’s status based on its critical path to determine if the project is running on time, behind or at risk of falling behind.
Thanks in advance for any assistance!
