I want a formula that specifies the lowest child of an ancestor, parent, child hierarchy.
I am using the Hierarchy formula, =COUNT(ANCESTORS()), to label my project tasks. A lot of the child tasks have tasks below that, going to a hierarchy of 5. I want to create metrics sheet that shows the estimated completion date for the lowest level child. Because the levels vary by task, I cannot choose a specific hierarchy number to create that metric sheet off of.
The goal is to only count the tasks, not the parent lines.
