Project Items Metrics – Product Tasks Summary

The Product Tasks Summary shows a bar chart of the number of tasks for each Services Product. For the selected bar, the widget shows a pie chart for the percentage of product tasks per the task owner (not the task assignee) and a bar chart of the number of product tasks in each state. You can click to view a tile display of the Services Products, and then click any tile to view that product's properties and task list. You can click to view the bar and pie charts.

The tasks that show in this app are the ones defined on the Tasks tab of the Planning page for the Services Product. Those tasks can belong to the Governing Project for the Services Product, or any project associated with the Services Product on the Projects tab of the Planning page.
