Hello Peter_MSP ,

This Task Status field is not available in Project Online, it is a Project Desktop field. You could look to replicate the calculation / create a similar task status field calculation. Here are the details on how the default Task Status field is calculated: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/status-task-field-769145ac-e052-45af-a847-e5ef15778bb1

Paul,

Thank you for your response. I suspected that this field is not there, but I hoped I just could not find it. I will look into your suggestion and how I can implement it either through Power BI DAX or within Enterprise Fields in MS Project Online.
