Subtask values now auto-add to quantity? Can it be turned off?

[Jason_Jones1]

Why is this new feature messing with my quantity numbers? Is there a way to turn off automatically adding all the subtasks in a project, on top of the quantity we’ve input into this custom field?

Hi @Jason_Jones1 , this is currently an A/B test which cannot be turned off. Let’s see what the outcome of the A/B test will be and if it stays, you could perhaps post a new Product Feedback category, proposing for it to be disabled or toggled on/off.

Hi @Jason_Jones1 - here’s a related post I made to lobby for basically the same thing:

Please allow us to change % field rollups to be AVERAGE instead of SUM, or to DISABLE rollups on % custom fields

The new product update of adding roll-ups to percentage fields makes zero sense. EXAMPLE: A parent task with three subtasks. Sub 1 custom field “% complete” says 80% complete Sub 2 says 30% complete Sub 3 says 20% complete [image] [image] The parent roll-up saying 130% makes no sense, is irrelevant, and is incorrect with the intent of the field. Please allow us to disable rollups in the field settings OR to modify it from SUM to AVERAGE.

I hope you’ll vote and comment or create a post specific to your needs.

It definitely needs to be customizable or the ability to be disabled.

I’m a fan, if we can customize or disable.

Ah, I forgot you had posted that, @Bryan_TeamKickstart !

Thanks
