How to Manage Developer Workload Across Multiple Projects?

[partomas]

Hello everyone,

We’ve recently started using the Project Management extension in EspoCRM for different development projects, and so far it’s been great – especially the task and subtask structure.

However, we’ve hit a challenge when it comes to sprint or To-Do planning across multiple projects. Specifically, we are struggling to manage and plan the workload for our developers when they are assigned tasks from different projects.

What we’re looking for is a way to see all tasks assigned to a specific developer (from all projects) in one place. Ideally, we’d also like to be able to prioritize those tasks and make sure they are handled one at a time – similar to what TMD or other Agile methodologies suggest.

Has anyone solved this kind of challenge using EspoCRM? Maybe with dashboards, reports, custom views, or another approach?

Any suggestions or shared experiences would be highly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.
Tomas

While in the #ProjectTask entity, you have access to all Project Tasks and you can add Project, Stage, Timeline, Priority etc. to the List view. Here you can also see Sub Tasks and Parent Tasks:



1. Parent is indicated by a special icon displaying the current number of Sub Tasks.
2. Sub Tasks also have their own designations, clicking on which will immediately redirect you to the Detail view of its Parent Task.

Currently, it's possible to add the Project Task entity type to the Calendar. But it displays only events on date ends (it's a deliberate choice). If we could somehow make it configure to display the whole time span if needed, it would solve the problem I think.
