We use repeating tasks to manage regular pieces of work and have set up custom fields to allow us to monitor the progress. However, when we mark the task as complete the repeating task is created with the same field option as at the time that it is marked complete.
I would love to see a new rule option that allowed a field (or column/section etc) on a newly created repeating task to be set.
Has anyone got a similar problem?
Sounds like a great idea @Rod_Petrie, hopefully this is something we can implement in the future. While I can’t promise anything at this stage, I’ve made a task to our Product team to take it onboard for future updates 
It would be great if you could set options for a repeating task that tell you what the fields should default to when the original task is complete.
I have tasks that I want to keep the same description and assignee, but nothing else. I also have tasks that I want to completely reset – including removing the assignee because it’s a new owner each week.
Yes! Hitting this particular pain point at the moment. As Justine suggested, would be great to be able to decide the default by field/tag (clear it, keep it the same, or set it to a given value).
We’d also benefit from this. We have recurring tasks that are part of a weekly sprint and it would be great to be able to automate incrementing the Sprint field by 1 on the newly created task. Current process is to close the task, wait for the new task to be created, find the new task, update the Sprint field manually.
I, too, have a repeating task that falls into different sprints. It would be great to have a field or two that doesn’t repeat but, instead, gets set by board rules on the newly created task. I have to manually change the sprint on each repeating task.
