Is it possible to have a number of tasks in one group eg: A list of 6 key tasks that relate to one Milestone? Then when each of those tasks are marked as Done, the status of the overall milestone task is updated within a different group?
I only want the overall task status changed when all of the 6 tasks have been marked as Done in that first group. Not when just one of those tasks have been completed.
I could see an automation to do one task only but couldnt work out how to apply this to the completed status for the entire group of tasks. Is this possible?
Actually i believe knowing how to āroll upā a set of tasks could also be something that is linked to a high level board. So would be interested to know how to apply this as one task within one of my groups too.
With this you could notify yourself when all tasks have been marked complete, and then you could manually change the status of the overall milestone task in a different group.
Is the milestone task in a different/high-level board as well? If so, Iām wondering if mirroring status columns could help here
It looks like an interesting use case that can be solved with the use of webhooks and Integromat or with an Integromat that runs every x minutes. The Integromat scenario would check all groups and statuses of the items within the group. When all statuses are set to done, it looks for the āoveralā item and set that status to Done. You canāt prevent that the board owner sets the overall status to Done manually, although this could trigger Integromat to kind of undo the manual status change.
Together with another monday.com power user (@PedroM) we are about to launch a webiste where users can try / buy these kind of more complex scenarios. Sent me a PM if you are interested.
Hey @slash! To set up a mirror column on the high level board, you can add a mirror column as well as a link to item column. Then, in the link to item column select the items from the lower-level board. Let me know how this goes!
Looks like the app feature I build (Report Status to Main) does exactly that. It takes a group of items in a detailed board and reports % of completion (like ā64% Doneā) to a single item in the master board. You can have as many detailed boards as you want. The boards are linked by a column in the master board holding a āMatchIDā and detailed boards with [MatchID] in the board title.

Hey @TRB-monday.com i have a slight different requirement, what i want is, when all the statuses on the board changes to something i want to update a status in the another board.
What are the possible ways in which i can achieve that.
