"This Entity" filter on relation fields

Ideas & Features

Hello,

Not sure if it was already requested.

I’m currently linking entities to create dependencies on Gantt and it would be interesting if it was possible to add a filter on “This Entity”.

On my use case, I’m creating dependencies between Tasks. And when searching for a task to add on my Blocked by field, it shows all my tasks. It would be great if on relation fields it was possible to add a This option so it takes the current linked Project. That’s for a one-to-many relation (one Project, many Tasks). In case of a many-to-many relation (many Projects, many Tasks), then there should be a These option so the list of tasks only shows tasks of related projects.

If Task A is linked to Project A and B, then the list should only show the tasks that are linked to Project A and B.

Do you mean this?
Or do you mean “If Task A is linked to Project A and B, then the list should only show the tasks that are linked to Project A or B” ?

Let’s imagine the following situation :

  • Project A

    • Task A
    • Task B

  • Project B

    • Task B
    • Task C

If I want to link a task on my Task A, the list will show Task A and B.

If I want to link a task on my Task B, the list will show Task A, B and C.

Yep, so I think you mean ‘or’ rather than ‘and’ ?

Yes, I think you’re right.
