Update parent task status when a subtask moves in progress
Your subtasks move to in progress while the parent stays unchanged, hiding real progress. Parents reflect active work so leaders get accurate status same day.
Overview
When child tasks start work but parents lag, project boards become unreliable and leaders chase status updates. This flow moves parent tasks to In Progress when subtasks begin, giving program managers accurate status same day and reducing manual fixes.
