A better Dashboard for high level overview

Thank your for your answer @Alexis and @LenSantos.

There are at least three different suggestions in play here, my prioritised list is as follows, with more details included:

  1. The dashboard view as a list, with project information in columns. It would probably look something like my illustration of the group of projects above. i.e…
  • Company/team dashboard (the ability to create multiple dashboards is also welcome)
    –Team 1 (different grouping options like “team” or by “project tag” (ability to create “custom fields/tags” for projects
    — Projects (different sorting options within groups)
    ---- Tasks (different sorting options within projects)
    -----subtask
    ----…
    —…
    Team 2

Does the above make sense?

  1. In the above i mention “custom fields/tags for projects”, this is something i think could be very helpfull. This would in someway eliminate the need for “project groups” since a tag/field could be the defining element of such a group. does it make sense?
    The fields/tag could fx be “priority” or “Company objective / strategic goal” or “subject” ie. a subject can go across teams. The ability to add several of the custom fields would be awesome (like for tasks)

  2. Ability to add projects to another projects task list. @LenSantos thats precisely what is was talking about. I am not sure how to do it in real life, as @Alexis is mentioning it might get complicated. But i think the idea comes from the notion that some projects are a subproject of a bigger project (i get that you could just “move down” a level, but that does not always make sense, because Asana is built around the “task” level ie. “my task” view etc.) where you would want some part of the bigger projects to be handled as projects and some parts as individual tasks.

OK, sorry for another long post. My point is the most important feature for me is the ability to view the dashboard as a list with columns i can customise like the google export and the second most important is the ability to use “custom fields” for projects.

Love some more feedback!

Please enjoy the weekend all.
