Is it possible to use custom fields assigned to a task as part of another calculated field? I basically want to assign a "work value" custom field to each task and have another custom field that is a total of all of the children's "work value" custom field. I am using the 2.8 Beta 2 trial version.

Sorry, you can't. Also you can't access parent/child tasks from calculated custom fields.

What is "work value", by the way ? Possible, you can use "Actual budget" for it ?
