Displaying parent rows only in a report

I would like to display the highlighted (yellow) information (parent rows) in a report only. The current report is pulling in both parent and children rows. I would like the report to display the conditional formatting from the sheet, as well.

    Hi @chenice.howard81116

    I hope you're well and safe!

    Try something like this.

    I usually add a so-called helper column called Level with the formula below, and then you can use it to identify parents and use it for conditional formatting and more.

    =IF(COUNT(CHILDREN([Task Name]@row)) > 0, COUNT(ANCESTORS()) + 1)
    

    Would that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe and have a fantastic week!

    Best,
