Would be great if we could sort tasks by start date, not just due date.

Hi @Valerie_Maron , welcome to the Community Forum and sharing this feedback! We already have a thread on this topic, I have gone ahead and merged your post with Ability to Sort tasks by start date to centralize feedback. Let me know if you have any questions :wink:

Any update on this feature? Our users are screaming and kicking asking about this feature. Main complaints being they are missing start dates and their projects are getting behind.

It looks like you can do at least sort by start date in the timeline view. Haven’t noticed it anywhere else… It would be great to have elsewhere!

Hi Asana - Any updates to sorting tasks by start date not just due date in views other than Timeline (especially List view)??!!
