Hey Everyone!
So my company is just beginning to utilize reporting features. I have prepared a dashboard for management to track overdue tasks by department. The idea we have a different chart where overdue tasks are broken down by employee so that the direct managers have a simple place to go to assess their teams. The issue that I am having is that some of the overdue tasks are being blocked by other tasks assigned to individuals outside of the department. So while they are technically overdue, we don’t think that they should count towards someone’s overdue tasks count. Can anyone recommend some sort of workaround for this issue?

Hi,
It is currently not possible to exclude blocked tasks in the reporting, I’ll let @Rebecca_McGrath give us some context regarding the roadmap!

Thanks Bastien! It seems strange as this feels like a feature that would be helpful for a lot of reasons.
Definitely useful, like dozens of other features. We can’t impact the prioritisation except by voting on requests like this or going through the Voice of Customer 
Hi @anon61812162, thanks for providing this feedback!
As Bastien mentioned, this feature isn’t available right now but I can definitely see how it would be useful. Our Product team don’t have plans to implement this option in reporting right now but I’ll keep you posted and let you know if we have any updates
Putting my 2c in for supporting this feature development. This would allow our project managers to identify tasks available to be worked on from a reporting dashboard very easily, without the “noise” of tasks that are still working there way through our pipeline and blocked by dependencies.
I would also like to add my vote for being able to filter out overdue tasks to exclude those blocked. Thanks
Has there been any updates on this? Thanks.

Not that I know of, but sometimes Asana silently releases features. I did not check reports regarding this recently.

I am still super hopeful for this as a feature from a PM standpoint

Do we have any update on this request? As a PM, this addition would be pretty crucial to understand my team member’s actionable workload.
Asana doesn’t answer unless there is an update, so if there is no answers it means it isn’t gonna be released soon.
Technically, I think all you can infer is that it hasn’t yet been released!
It could be released the next day, week, month, never.
If you become an Asana Ambassador, you will receive early notice of some new functionality.
Thanks,
Larry
