I am trying to assign Item ID’s to my tasks, and then for the subitems to be the main item ID plus an a, b, c etc?
Can this be done?
Thanks

You might be able to do it with automations/workflow. Which product (CRM/Work Management, etc) and level (Pro/Enterprise) do you have?

Hi,
Sorry I always forget that bit - it is Workflow and we have enterprise

Thanks

How are you creating your subitems currently? Manually or via automation or workflow?

Hi,

They have been created manually, it’s an existing board where the item ID’s have nowbeen requested.

Thanks

Hello Kristy, it’s doable with make because it will be custom automation, I have done that recently. Let me know if you need help with that.

Hey @KirstyM

Have you tried the Subitem Automations app yet? It’s the leading app for all subitem-related things. Might have exactly what you’re looking for!

There are different ways to go about this.

You can set ID numbers as item names. Then use the item names as a Prefix to the names of the subitems.

For example:
Item name = 1000150
Subitem 1 name = 1000150 A
Subitem 2 name = 1000150 B
Subitem 3 name = 1000150 C

Here’s the automation that you can use if you’d like to proceed that way.
