Is there a v lookup type formula that will find all tasks assigned to a specific person?

Options

I am building a personal task tracker template for my team so everyone can better manage daily tasks as well ass see any tasks assigned to them as part of a project. Is there a formula or way to have project tasks automatically added to a sheet or report as they are created and assigned to a specific person?

    Hi @kstaver

    I hope you're well and safe!

    I recommend using a Report with the Current User feature so the team member viewing it can see their tasks.

    Would that work/help?

    I hope that helps!

    Be safe, and have a fantastic week!

    Best,

    Hi @Andrée Starå

    Ok, so I can have a report that combines someone's individual task list plus tasks assigned to them on various projects.

    I have reports that consolidate tasks as part of our programs/projects (engineering change process, new product development etc), it has just been a bit of a mess trying to combine everything so that we have a centralized system so that my team can just go to one pace to see all the tasks/projects they are involved with.

    Thanks,

    Katie
