Due Dates and Times malfunctioning in Saved Search

Community Forum English Bugs In Progress
#1

In a Saved Search sorted by Due Date, when I give a “Due Time” to a task, it does not sort on the correct date/order chronologically.

Steps to reproduce:
Save a search that includes tasks. Sort it by due date. Select a task with a due date and add a due time. It slides in incorrectly.

Browser version:
Chrome Version 97.0.4692.99 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Thanks for the reply @Andrew_Seidman!

I’ve filed a bug for our team to investigate, I’ll keep you posted as soon as I have an update!

@Andrew_Seidman our team has some follow-up questions:

  1. Does that incorrect sort persist even after you refresh the page?
  2. Does that incorrect sort persist after you switch to sorting by another field and then back to sorting by due date?
  3. When you say “Sort it by due date. Select a task with a due date and add a due time. It slides in incorrectly” are you setting a due time on a “tomorrow” task to be “Tomorrow 8:00 pm,” and then Asana automatically moves it to the bottom of the list?

Thanks for your help! :pray:t3:

  1. Does that incorrect sort persist even after you refresh the page? - ANDREW: Yes
  2. Does that incorrect sort persist after you switch to sorting by another field and then back to sorting by due date? ANDREW: Yes
  3. When you say “Sort it by due date. Select a task with a due date and add a due time.

ANDREW: I set a due time on a “Tomorrow” task and then Asana moves it to the bottom of the list for the next day.

For what it’s worth its almost certainly a “time zone” related bug. I am on Pacific Time. If I set a “Due time” as 3:59pm, it stays in the correct order. If i set it to 4pm, it moves it to the bottom of the following day. So, when I am setting it to “4pm” it thinks I am setting it to 12am for the following day, and gets confused.
