Flag parent records
I have a column where I flag items that are a risk. I would like parent records to also be flagged if their children records are flagged. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks!

You would use an IF statement similar to this:
=IF(COUNT(CHILDREN([Task Name]@row))> 0, IF(COUNTIFS(CHILDREN()), 1)> 0, 1), original flag formula for child rows)
