Hi All I am trying to get a custom field in Portfolio view that pulls the due date from a milestone called Go Live. This is needed for our senior leadership since the project typically doesn’t end at go live and right now the only date field we see in portfolio view is the due date range. I know you can show the milestones with a little diamond and hover over them for more information but this is not effective or a quick view/sort for our leadership. Ideally we are able to pull the due date from within the project milestone to display in a custom field called Go Live. The leadership could sort the portfolio on this custom field and at a quick glance see everything going live in the next 2 weeks which is often an ask. Our teams portfolio (team is 300+ analysts for a large hospital organization) has well over 200 projects so this type of custom field is critical. I believe at one point I saw something on here that someone else had done with custom field and rollup logic. Any help is truly appreciated. ---

@Angela_Martin, It’s not for the faint of heart (!) but I bet you’re thinking of this: > [@How to link the due date of a specific task or subtask into a custom field of a portfolio](https://forum.asana.com/t/how-to-link-the-due-date-of-a-specific-task-or-subtask-into-a-custom-field-of-a-portfolio/906281): > > I modified to support the due date of a specific subtask again. This is the third ver. This is from discussions of [1) Shouldn’t a rollup of a number in a portfolio formula custom field see that subtask’s value as part of the rollup? 2) One form of rollup syntax seems to generate error](https://forum.asana.com/t/1-shouldn-t-a-rollup-of-a-number-in-a-portfolio-formula-custom-field-see-that-subtask-s-value-as-part-of-the-rollup-2-one-form-of-rollup-syntax-seems-to-generate-error/1041226) I revised this post because the first ver. didn’t work well. this ver. becomes simpler than both of 1st and 2nd ver. → @lpb thanks for your advice. I posted the old ver. in [Japanese forum](https://forum.asana.com/t/topic/906225). This post is E… I _did_ get it to work with my client, though. I’m afraid the thread may be hard to navigate, but I think we tried to include what was working; maybe read from the botttom up, though that will be confusing for another reason! Thanks, Larry ---
