Reordering the tasks in calendar is essential. I’m using the ASANA trial but may not purchase because of the lack of this feature.
This seems like a very simple feature to add and people have been requesting this feature for almost four years. Please add this feature; without it the usability of the software is rather limiting for my team.
This seems like such a simple thing that is being ignored. My calendar view is a mess because I can’t move the “informative” cards down under the actual “to-do” cards and it’s very annoying.
You can now reorder tasks in calendar as long as you are in week view
After more than a year, I came back to this post to see if there was a fix.
While there was not the fix I expected, @Chrissy_Roff found a very a good work-around. Thanks!
It seems like the solution above^ is only possible in the “My Tasks” calendar, and not in a project’s calendar view. Would really like this functionality as we have many team members with lots of tasks and we use the calendar view in our projects almost exclusively when planning ahead
Another vote for this feature. It’s been a while and this is critical for our team to keep our workflows in Asana.
c’mon Asana. Make this happen.
Seems a must have to me.
Please! It’s been 5 years. We’d love this feature!
The Calendar View is a super important feature to my team, and we’d really love to be able to click and drag tasks vertically within a date.
Asana team, please, let us know, if you’re planning on adding the feature of moving tasks up and down a day and reorder them at all , if yes, then when? This feature is CRUCIAL for an easy workflow and people, including me, have been waiting for it for wayyyy too long. Also, all of us have been waiting for a response for way too long too
I certainly second this as someone who works in Asana daily!
Hi Asana team, this would be so great to have! Most of my work is done in calendar view and it would be great to be able to rearrange tasks in the same day (or even arrange alphabetically with a button). Please help us!
Please, Asana. We need a way to do this! Thank you
Agree, this is the biggest miss Asana!
Currently the Calendar view lists tasks in a certain order (I believe it is by creation date?)…but I would LOVE to be able to re-arrange them in any way I wish. You can drag them to different days, but can’t drag to re-order them on that same day. This would help productivity a lot to be able to arrange them as I want to complete them so I see most important tasks for the day at the top of that day.
Hi Nina,
If I correctly understand your issue.
Possible solution 1
You can use your “My Tasks” section in a calendar mode, where it is possible to drag the tasks on the same day to re-organize the order.
Possible solution 2
Depending on the criteria you want to focus on (for example, when field “priority” = high"), you could create an advanced search showing only your top priority tasks, on a calendar view.

Hope that helps (if yes, please consider selecting my answer as “Solution” )
Helpful solution @Arthur_BEGOU, thank you. Arthur and @Nina_Anderson1, I merged your post into this topic to centralize feedback. Feel free to upvote this enhancement at the top of this thread, if you’d like.
The solution 1 Arthur shared above works great. However…for me, the drag and drop to re-order tasks only works when the calendar view is in “week view.” On my machine, if it’s in “month view” then the handlebars to drop the task don’t ever appear. Toggling back and forth between the views isn’t a big deal - just sharing the observation since it seems like a bug. I’m currently using the Asana app on a Windows 11 machine.
Thanks Melissa for that feedback.
I notice the same behavior, indeed.
But don’t think that is necessarily a bug, as the different views don’t always have the same features.
