Hi, guys!
I need your advice. To book vacation we create task with duration of absence (from date…to date). Is there any way to send assignee check-list of actions 3 days before vacation start. As I understand it’s impossible to create automation for task’s start date. How would you realize this process?
Thank you!
Hi @anon2954830, great question!
I would suggest using the “Add a comment” Rule 
In this comment, you can include the checklist, or if you are using tasks as the checklist, you can use the comment rule to remind yourself to add a link to the task. For example, “OOO is approaching - link to checklist”
I hope this helps!
Hi Rebecca,
The problem is that we need to send check-list before the START of vacation - not FINISH. Due date in automation is date of task’s finish.
Duration of vacations differs from 1 day to 1 month - so I can’t use any standard quantity of days for automation.
@anon2954830 This is a great question.
Even though the build-in Asana Rules does not yet work with start dates, you can use Flowsana as a workaround because as you can see in the picture below a start date can be used as the trigger:
