Error creating parent task

Frappe Framework Bug
1

Hello, steps to reproduce the problem:

  1. Edit existing task

  2. Click on parent task combobox

  3. Click on create task

  4. Create the task

When the task is saved, let’s say, “Parent Task”, the form is loaded again with the same task with the same task as the parent.

This way:

parent-task
parent-task1182×306 14.6 KB

As you see the parent task is assigned itself as its parent task.

By the way, when parent task combobox is clicked, no tasks appear, even when there are tasks.

Yeah its a little confusing, the parent task has to be a “group” to allow it to be used. However if you create a task from the dropdown, it doesn’t check this and you can get into the scenario you have here. The tasks/projects is quite buggy, and lots of ui interactions of it are confusing/not intuitive.
