Copying existing task with due date in same project

Hi @Duco_Mast,

I wanted to add something to @Edda’s reply. There’s a clever workaround (someone smarter than me thought of it, but I can’t now find the original post here so I can’t credit that person) that goes like this:

  1. Create a task named “Temp”

  2. Drag and drop, one by one, each task to be copied into Temp as subtasks of Temp (How to Use Asana subtasks | Product guide • Asana Product Guide) keeping them in the order you ultimately want

  3. Duplicate the parent “Temp” task with “Duplicate Task…”: (Task actions: create, move, duplicate, and more | Product guide • Asana Product Guide)

  4. Repeat the above 3 more times if you want a total of 4 sets of those tasks

  5. Click the first new “Copy of Temp” task then select all its subtasks and drag and drop them into a new section

  6. Repeat the above 3 more times

Hope that helps as a workaround, but I support the product feedback to make this easier,
