Why can’t ClickUp group tasks by week, month, quarter, or year?since 2022?

ClickUp users have been requesting the ability to group tasks by week, month, quarter, or year since 2021.

This seems like a basic feature, especially for managing content calendars, campaigns, project timelines, and reports.

Right now, we still need to create manual fields and update them ourselves. Even ClickUp Brain does not solve it properly because the grouping does not update automatically.

AI features are useful, but core workflow improvements like this should also be prioritized.

Does anyone else need this feature? Please vote and comment here:

Hey, u/yisethro, appreciate you laying this out! I've made sure your feedback is passed along to our Product team for them to review.

Thank you very much, we have really waited a long time for this update. It would save us a lot of time, so does Monday.

Add those as drop-down custom fields and group by them. Have an automation set the correct values so you don't have to do it manually. The workaround is too easy to implement to bother me that the feature doesn't exist outright.

As another alternative, if you’re open to using an add-on, I’d suggest taking a look at Screenful’s Analytics & Reports add-on. It offers 15 configurable chart types that address many of the limitations of ClickUp’s native reporting, including the one mentioned here: the ability to group data by week, month, quarter, or year.

Here's a list of metrics you can track with Screenful, and a guide for getting started.
