Kinabase now supports Activities and Tasks in both aggregation field types:

• Aggregation (Date) – shows the earliest or latest date you choose.
• Aggregation – shows a running count.

Use the date option to bring 'next task due' or 'last activity' straight into the collection view, and add a count if you also want to see workload or engagement at a glance.

Why it helps:

• See what’s next: an earliest Due Date field highlights the record that needs action first.
• Know what’s fresh: a latest Timestamp field tells you when each record was last touched.
• Gauge effort: a simple count reveals where tasks or activities are piling up.
• Stay current: figures update automatically whenever tasks or activities are added, edited, completed, or imported.

How to use it

1. Configure → Fields → Add field.
2. Pick Aggregation (Date) (for dates) or Aggregation (for counts).
3. Select a Target type (Tasks or Activities).
   • For dates: choose Earliest or Latest, then pick the task or activity field (e.g. Due Date, Scheduled – start, Completed at, Timestamp).
   • For counts: leave Mode as Count.

Save, and the new column appears instantly.

Ideal for:

• Account managers sorting by latest activity to keep every client warm.
• Project leads scanning earliest due dates to hit the next milestone.
• Team leads filtering by task count to balance workloads.
