Option for %complete of a task to change based on items completed in a checklist
Hi,
I want the %complete of a task to change based on items completed in a checklist. Currently it uses a combination of hours and the start/end date, but I would like the %complete to also reflect the number of items that are completed in a checklist. For example, if a checklist of 8 items has 2 items done, the percent complete would be 25%. Is this possible? Or could this feature be added. I know there is a work around to use power automate, however, I encountered issues with pulling planner premium tasks into power automate.
Thanks

The progress percentage is still tied to task status or, in Planner Premium (formerly Project for the web), to duration and effort tracking, not checklist completion. The Power Automate workaround is the only option right now, but as you mentioned, it can be tricky when dealing with Planner Premium tasks since they’re handled a bit differently in the connector. Hopefully, Microsoft adds this as a native feature in the future, because having % complete update dynamically based on checklist progress would make tracking much more intuitive.
