Show progress bar for parent cards
in progress
Hans Dahlström
This is nearing completion
Tommy Svensson
Hans Dahlström: extremely excited...! Any changes since last we discussed (below)?
Hans Dahlström
We decided to update design and logic to make the progress bar more powerful, we are nearing the end for real this time
Christine Müller
Hans Dahlström: amazing, looking forward!

The work on this has started. You will have the option to select between counting progression either through Checklists or through Status, 0 - 100% (see screenshots)
Tommy Svensson
Hans Dahlström:
Looks promising!
Question: will the parent card progress count be through whatever progress type the sub cards are setup with? Will parent cards be able to handle sub cards having multiple progression types (checklists and statuses)?
Hans Dahlström
Tommy Svensson: You select either checklist or status on each progression custom column / field
Tommy Svensson
Hans Dahlström:
Does this mean I only see the parent card progression when in sheet view? I think it makes sense to also output the progress on a card in kanban view (all views really). And on the actual card details (if the card is a parent and has a progress field, it needs to be clear that the progress is the overall progress for the card's children and not its own progress). But maybe this will happen and was just omitted in the examples above?
Tommy Svensson
Hans Dahlström:
Sorry for spamming but this feature is crucial...
What happens if a parent card also has statuses or checklists? Will that interfere with the aggregate function?
Tommy Svensson
Hans Dahlström:
A status field need to be able to be excluded from status progress. TODO typically doesn't mean anything has been done, i.e. should be 0% progress instead of maybe 20% if there are 5 status columns.
Hans Dahlström
Tommy Svensson: A parent card will not be included in the aggregation (this is how rest of Favro works)

But surely for nested higher level parents? From the screenshot it didn't look like aggregation was cascaded upwards, but probably just not an exact screenshot. Just for looks.
Hans Dahlström
Tommy Svensson: Yes all children are aggregated upwards through the tree - no child is left behind 😀
Stephanie Krutsick
Hans Dahlström: Does this work on the sheet view as well as the list view?

Signed up just to support this. This would be HUGELY useful. For us, splitting larger cards into smaller ones, then getting % of child cards marked as done would be extremely useful. I get the issue of determining what "done" is but I like what's been mentioned (status, or last step in board).
Either way, as others have asked, any updates on status/completion date?
I know this is a tricky one, but would be SO much useful (and most other systems do have this so it's definitely another checkmark to add to the feature list)
Hans Dahlström
I can think about two ways doing progress bars:
* Checklists on cards so 10 of 20 done is 50% and it is aggregated up the tree (in a backlog for example)
* Last step in Kanban (or your own definition of done in the Kanban) - that aggregates up in tree - So User story A is in Done, User story B is in progress, Epic is 50% done
Thoughts?

Hans Dahlström: We do not use checklists on cards, only subcards. For us just using archive state from sprint board would suffice. A better solution would be able to compute pr. card and aggregate up. For our sprint board we have four columns - corresponding to 0, 33, 66, 100 completion status

Hans Dahlström: Using checklists on cards so 10 of 20 done is 50% would be perfect for most use cases. Maybe having cards with checklists be calculated via checklist, and those without on another aspect such as position on kanban

Do you have an envisaged launch date on this feature? Thank you!
Frans Krojegård
Any progress on this?

Collection overall progress

If "Complete" status would be marked in some way, it would be nice to see somewhere "Collection 80%" complete - in text in minimum, maybe with even progress bar. This is something that would benefit us and our customers to visually see in one glance how much is really done. Now we just have a hunch by scrolling the sheet/kanban.

One thing missing is a general gut feel/sense of where someone is at with a task. By having a percentage % option, team members can ballpark this for visibility with the rest of the team. Monday.com does a good job of this
Roni Laukkarinen
What's the progress? :) I'd really love something like this in Favro. We get asked multiple times a week "what's the status of the progress". It would be nice to see this immediately in the board level overall and in cards.
Hans Dahlström
planned
Work on this will start in a bit
