A subtask report is built from the Subtasks tab in raw data reporting, and it pulls subtask records — the title, the status, the assigned team members and teams, the due date, and the parent job — into one table you can filter, group, and export.

Overview

A subtask report is how you track the checklist-level work that sits under a job. A subtask is the secondary record type in FieldPulse — it can stand on its own, but it is usually attached under a job record to divide the work into a task list, so different team members can own and status each piece. See How to Use Subtasks for how subtasks are created and used. The subtask report is where you see those records together instead of opening one job at a time. Common subtask reports include status by team member and subtasks by job. Building a subtask report follows the same path as every other raw data report — set a date range, choose the columns, set filters, then read the table. Subtask reporting is part of FieldPulse’s dashboards and reporting. For the parts of the reporting flow that are the same on every record type — groupings, saving a report, adding it to your dashboard, and exporting to CSV — see How to Use Raw Data Reporting.

Common subtask reports

These are the column and grouping combinations behind the subtask reports companies run most often.

Status by team member

Use this report to view each team member’s subtasks sorted by status. Customize the columns to your needs, but include Assigned Team Members and Status, and group by Team Member and Status.

Subtasks by job

Use this report to view all subtasks under each parent job. Customize the columns to your needs, but include Parent Job, and group by Parent Job.

Tips

  • The subtask report’s default columns cover ownership and dates — Assigned Team Members, Assigned Teams, Created At, and Due Date — so it answers what is outstanding and who owns it.
  • Filter Due Date by date to pull the subtasks due inside a window, and keep the Status column to see where each one stands.
  • Keep Parent Job and Related Project in the report to see which job or project each subtask belongs to.
  • Add the Customer columns when you want customer detail — the lead source, pipeline status, notes, or tags — next to each subtask.

FAQs

Can I save a subtask report to use again?

Yes. Select Save as Report, then Save as New to store it under Select Report, or Save as Widget to add it to your Pulse Dashboard. See How to Use Raw Data Reporting for the full saving flow.

Can I export a subtask report to a spreadsheet?

Yes. Select Export CSV to download the report currently on your screen as a CSV file to your device. Your subtask report is working when the table returns the subtasks you expected for the date range you selected, shows the status, assignee, due date, and parent job columns you chose, and narrows to the subtasks you care about once your filters are applied.
