Sub Item Features

Automation: Create Sub-Item with Pre-Populated Fields
It would be helpful to have the option to create a sub-item through an automation, with fields automatically populated using values from the parent item, similar to how it’s currently possible when creating a new item via automation.

Convert Item to Sub-Item Using a Connected Board as Parent
It would be useful to have the ability to convert an existing item into a sub-item, assigning it to a parent item that resides on a connected board.

Convert Sub-Item to Parent Item on a Different Board
Please consider adding the ability to convert a sub-item into a parent client that is on a different board, rather than being limited to the same board.

Use Sub-Item Date Fields in Automation Conditions
I would like the ability to use the sub items date field to as a condition to send an email automation

Awesome suggestions! Thinking about how these processes could look:

Automation: Create Sub-Item with Pre-Populated Fields
Duplicate the item → remove some data → map/manipulate some data → convert to sub-item

Convert Item to Sub-Item Using a Connected Board as Parent
Remove data → map/manipulate data → move to board → convert to sub-item - Restriction may be that it can only be connected to 1 item.

Convert Sub-Item to Parent Item on a Different Board
Convert Sub item to item → Move item to Board.

Use Sub-Item Date Fields in Automation Conditions
When Sub items Date arrives → Send email. You should be able to do this one with make or Zapier. Let me know if you need help with set up!

Hey @Zak.harris

We developed an app called subitem automations that provides robust automation capabilities to subitems. Here’s an example of how it can be applied in this case →

Inherent values from parent item -

Convert subitems to items →

You can find it in the monday.com marketplace in the platform or here - https://monday.com/marketplace/10000287

Hope that helps!
