Hi all,

I want to show associated open tasks in my deal view - i.e. so we can easily see what needs to be done on each deal. However, the “Deal --\> Tasks” association seems to be the only way I can find to pull this into a column and it shows all tasks, regardless whether they are marked complete or not.

Am I missing something? Seems an obvious / highly useful feature to include, simply to filter out completed tasks. Perhaps by adding a “Deal --\> Tasks Open” category or similar.

Any ideas / suggestions?

Thanks all!

Hi @Matt108,

I’m not aware of any ways to display open tasks on the deal index page – due to the limitation you mentioned. You could request a change here by submitting a post to the HubSpot Ideas section of the community: [https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/idb-p/HubSpot\_Ideas](https://community.hubspot.com/t5/HubSpot-Ideas/idb-p/HubSpot_Ideas)

If seeing deals with open tasks is enough, I’d recommend the following:

1. Create a deal-based list: [Create segments](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/lists/create-active-or-static-lists)
  1. Add filter
  2. Change the “Filtering on” dropdown from Deal to Task
  3. Select “Task status is any of”, select the corresponding open options and save the list

2. On the deal index page (Menu \> CRM \> Deals), add a filter by clicking on “Advanced filters” and filter by list membership, select the new list

Best regards

Thanks Karsten. Have submitted the idea as you suggested. Your workaround is interesting but I want to be able to see my full list of deals with or without open tasks, and to see what the open tasks are where they exist.

Send me the link to the feature submission. I will upvote it. This sees like a crazy way to do the task view on deals. No way I want closed ones to show up.
