I have a master template with about 34 different task templates built into it. My task templates keep building on weekends, but I have the project setting for the work week only. How can I fix this without having to delete and reset all my due dates.
@Meridith_McLarty Welcome to the forums!
Would you please provide a bit more information about how the task templates are being created? Based on your comment, I am guessing this is done through a rule or something?
No, I built a single “master template” with multiple task templates within it so we could repeat templates for the different teams in marketing for a multi-channel campaigns. Each is added to the project as needed. I built each task template in a project and then turned that project into a template.
Hi @Meridith_McLarty I’m curious about this issue you’re dealing with. Is the master template atask template with multiple subtasks? I would love to see a visual of this. You can also book a short 15-minute meeting w/ me to share your screen/issue. Best.
@Meridith_McLarty One thing to check would be the All Activity for these tasks (or a sampling of them). At the very top of the All Activity, Asana should show how or what created the tasks. There might be a rule that is inadvertently creating these tasks - just a thought. If you are comfortable with posting some screenshots, that would be helpful in diagnosing.
Asana support says there’s not a way to control this within task templates. This is just a portion of them. Oddly enough, I built a project to look at whether if I rebuilt each task template relative dates and dependencies if I could force the adjustment to the dates. when I readded the tasks for each item, all dates started on Saturday - when I pushed out dates, so it wasn’t hitting my team’s to do list, it pushed most templates to only work week dates. But not all.
