Filter by subitems status columns

Hello guys,

In a board I have items with subitems. These subitems have got few status columns. Is there a way to filter the board based on the status column of the subitems ?

For exemple:


I want to filter my board to display only subitems where column 3 = ‘Working on it’

@Joren,

It is not currently possible to filter subitems.

In the meantime, this trick might work for you. It will allow you to filter the main items that have subitems where that column is “Working on it”:

  1. Create a formula column in the subitems “SIx”: SWITCH({Status}, “Working on it”, 5, 0)
  2. Mirror that column in the main board “X” returning Max.
  3. Filter on “X” = 5.

To the team at Monday.com, can you please confirm whether this filter feature is being worked on? It’s extremely challenging not having the ability to filter subitems by status. It significantly hinders the usefulness of subitems, to the point where I will probably stop using this feature until a filter is available.

Hi,

Filtering on subitems using the Advanced Filter is indeed in the works and was annouced for Q4 2021.

HI @Joren and @kiwialex,

As @Marc1 mentioned, this is on our roadmap for Q4 2021! :partying_face:

You can keep an eye on all of the upcoming additions to the subitems here - Subitems Product Plan
It’s worth noting that these dates are estimates, and may be subject to change, but it should give you a good idea of what we’re working on!

I hope this helps! Remember to mark as solved if this answers your question :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Best,
Dani
