Is there a way to display the final date from a ticket

Is there a way using Plans to show the last due date on an EPIC or THEME as the project due date?

Hi @Mindy Johnson and welcome to the community!

By "project due date", are you looking for a way to show a line item that displays the "max" due date of all issues on that plan?  If so, you would need something to hold this information.  Assuming Theme is your top level of the hierarchy, and your project is made up of multiple themes, you'd either need:

1. Another level above the Theme that all themes roll up to
2. A "milestone" theme that simply captures the timeline of the project.  This can be ranked at the top of your plan

Option 1 would automatically aggregate start/end timeline of all child issues

Option 2 would require automation to dynamically establish the full timeline which could get complicated and may not even be possible depending upon the number of Themes/Epics that need to be parsed.

@Mark Segal  Thanks for your response.  Right now we use EPICS as our highest level.  If a theme was created above epic, would that help the rollup?  right now, every project has multiple epics and right now it is difficult to view a higher level that the PMO needs.  Let me see if creating a theme to house the epics will allow the dates to roll up to provide one single date.

Thanks again

Hi @Mindy Johnson - Looks like you may have pinged the wrong Mark (note two L's in my last name) 🙂

Yes - If you put a theme in there and link your epics to it, the theme will roll up the timelines of its children.
