Hey Asana, I’ve got my product backlog set up with a range of custom fields to allow us to assess things like:
Of course tasks hit that board without the fields filled in, so to enable me to triage those, I want to filter by ‘field is BLANK’, however, there’s no apparent option? I can sort by field, sure, but then I still have the headache of scrolling and the task ‘jumping’ in the list.
Is there a workaround for the moment?
Hi @Martin_Parzonka, thanks for reaching out!
You can use our advanced search feature to create a report of tasks with no value for a specific field. You can also save your search as a report and you can always access it from the sidebar.
Please find more details in this article of our Asana guide:
I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions 
Have a great weekend!
Thanks, @Emily_Roman, that’s done the trick!
Hi! Is this function still active? I’m having trouble seeing how it would be done with current custom fields setup.
I’d actually like to do this not as a search, but as a FILTER in a board. Is that possible? It doesn’t seem like it, but would be great.
I need this too. Any update on this? This seems like a very simple thing to include a [BLANK] option in each filter list. I am trying to filter a Portfolio view though so slightly different use case.
Alternatively adding the ability to do ‘is not’ on the Filter would allow me to achieve this as well.
I recommend you create a new topic in English Forum > Product Feedback specifically about filtering in portfolios.
You can do this now in projects as below, but not (yet) in portfolios:
Thanks,
Larry
Thanks Larry, will do
