Interview: Project Rollups

The Project Tasks view shows projects on wide rows with bold text.  Under those projects are subprojects and tasks.  The values in those tasks are rolled up to the sub-project and project rows as totals.  The term “rollup” is just another way of saying totals.

Project Task Dashboard

Here are some task fields that are totaled up at the subproject and project levels:

1. Duration, Actual work, Remaining work
2. Start date, due date, and finish date
3. Client and salary costs
4. Quoted costs
5. Material costs
