“Understand basic text mode for groupings” activities
Task - 4 parents grouping
The following text mode will group tasks based on up to four levels of parents, and leave parents that don’t exist blank.
textmode=true
group.0.name=Parents
group.0.valueexpression=CONCAT({parent}.{parent}.{parent}.{parent}.{name},IF(ISBLANK({parent}.{parent}.{parent}.{parent}.{name}),"",", "),{parent}.{parent}.{parent}.{name},IF(ISBLANK({parent}.{parent}.{parent}.{name}),"",", "),{parent}.{parent}.{name},IF(ISBLANK({parent}.{parent}.{name}),"",", "),IF(ISBLANK({parent}.{name}),"No parent",{parent}.{name}))
group.0.linkedname=parent
group.0.namekeyargkey.0=parent
group.0.namekeyargkey.1=name
group.0.valueformat=string
Task - Percent complete grouping
The following text mode will group tasks based on their percent complete. Tasks will fall into one of the following categories when grouped:
- 0%
- 1% to 25%
- 26% to 50%
- 51% to 75%
- 76% to 99%
- 100%
group.0.linkedname=direct
group.0.namekey=percentComplete
group.0.valueexpression=IF({percentComplete}<1,"0%",IF({percentComplete}<26,"1% to 25%",IF({percentComplete}<51,"26% to 50%",IF({percentComplete}<76,"51% to 75%",IF({percentComplete}<100,"76% to 99%",IF({percentComplete}=100,"100","***"))))))
group.0.valueformat=doubleAsString
textmode=true
Task - statusEquatesWith, then status
The following text mode will group tasks by statusEquatesWith, then by status.
group.0.enumclass=com.attask.common.constants.TaskStatusEnum
group.0.enumtype=TASK
group.0.linkedname=direct
group.0.name=State
group.0.type=enum
group.0.valuefield=statusEquatesWith
group.0.valueformat=val
group.1.enumclass=com.attask.common.constants.TaskStatusEnum
group.1.enumtype=TASK
group.1.linkedname=direct
group.1.namekey=status
group.1.type=enum
group.1.valuefield=status
group.1.valueformat=val
textmode=true
Proof Approval - Group by project name
group.0.valueformat=HTML
group.0.valuefield=documentVersion:document:project:name
group.0.displayname=Project Name
Proof Approval - Group by document name
group.0.displayname=Document Name
group.0.valuefield=documentVersion:document:name
group.0.valueformat=HTML
