Link to subtasks - How to?

[Peavey]

Hi,

I am trying to make a task list with substasks and would like so show status on the subtasks on the main task. 

An example is shown below, task 3 and 4 is a subtask for task 2, task 6 is a subtask for task 5. 

How can I show status of subtasks in main task? (I've tried LOOKUPVALUE without any success so far).

Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi  @Peavey ,

Here are the steps you can follow：

1. Create calculated column.

Column =
CONCATENATEX(
    FILTER(ALL('Table'),
    'Table'[Subtask for main task]=EARLIER('Table'[Task id])),
    [Status],",")

2. Result:

Thanks! Great solution, it worked fine for me 😀

A follow up request, how can I add a colum that is true/false it a task has a open subtask? This to have visuals to highlight that a task has subtasks that are open, not only the status.

Thanks,
