time enties reports with top level parent task

Agata Ziębińska

Hi,

I need a time entries based report grouped by the top-level parent folder. When grouping by project or folder I see only a level up parent folder / project. I tried a workaround with custom item projects but all I can do in time entries reports is to filter by custom items for tasks... Another workaround is a category but is too failure prone. 

The use case is our client wants time entries reports built in a certain way, grouped by high level projects and now I just export the report as it is and then I need to spend extra hours to categorize it correctly.

Hi, @Agata Ziębińska 👋 thanks for posting!

As you may know, Wrike’s time entry (Timelog) reports currently allow grouping only by the immediate parent folder or project of each task or time entry. So, if your tasks are nested several levels deep (e.g., Space > Top-level Project > Subproject > Task), the grouping will reflect only the direct parent, not the highest-level project or folder.

While we wait for input from other Community members, I recommend reaching out to our Support Team as they might be able to suggest a suitable workaround for your use case. If you’d like, I can raise a support ticket on your behalf, just let me know. Happy to help!

Thanks!
