Redmine

Just remembered - to confuse matters further, if you click any of the hyperlinks on the summary page the filtered issues list shown IS for parent and all subprojects, so the issue count does not match the value on the summary.

Extension: I realise that what I really want is a Summary report based on the issues shown on ANY issue view.

Explanation: The issue summary for a mature project quickly becomes rather irrelevant - it shows 100's of long closed issues and many of the open issues are part of that huge and growing population of 'unscheduled' items (stuff requested by idiots that we are too polite to just delete in many cases :-) Having a summary of all issues becomes less and less practical.

What would be extremely useful would be the Summary format extended to any arbitrary collection of issues:

1) Select a custom saved query or build a new one.
2) Pick Summary from the right side menu - should always be available.

It should summarise just the issues that are returned by the query. From there of course I can drill down by Assigned To, Category or Target Version (for example) which makes the query a bit more complex... but I think not impossible?

I just noticed this going through and testing the STI changes after patch #3007. The summary page does its calculations ONLY on the project you are viewing and NOT on any of its subprojects. I'm still getting a feel for the whole Ruby coding language and the Redmine project, but this seems like a extremely simple patch :)

This is really necessary for me to make use of the summary at all ;/

+1 for me.

My chief ask me to achieve that... It whould be good if it could be implemented natively without changing any source code :)

duped by #12492

Duped by #7970 and #12492.

This should be optional on the summary. Just a small checkbox "include subprojects" which include the subprojects in the counting and everything else.
Especially on a per user base.

I am wondering because in favour of the new admin issue setting "Display subprojects issues on main project" one could imagine all views (not only issues, gantt and calendar) will show defaukt all (subprojects issues) in any parent view if this switch is true.
However it shall be possible to be able to apply filters (with or without subprojects -selction) in every view.

It will be great to my use of summary report!

+1, summary is useless as it stands

Any update to getting a view for subprojects in summary?

Summary report and reports with subprojects must be great. I need it!

We are still in need of this feature.
If there is a plugin that will help PM with resource and prioritization on a Parent Project level please let me know.

I had a look at the patch by Mizuki Ishikawa and found that it is better not to replace Issue.by_* methods with Issue.count_and_group_by. Instead, Issues.by_* methods should take Setting.display_subprojects_issues into account.

Issue.by_* methods are only used to show the report. It is evident from the change r3362. The change removed raw SQL from ReportsController and added Issue.by_* methods to Issues model.

In my opinion, Issue.by_* should return the same value as shown on the report page.

I have looked the patch feature_2529_v2.patch.

The patch passes an array of subprojects to with_subprojects parameter in Issue.count_and_group_by, but the parameter is supposed to be true or false. I suggest updating the patch as follows:
