Schedule backward from "master" date?

English Forum Tips and Tricks

Is there a way to schedule tasks for x number of days or weeks prior to a “master” project date (which would in most cases be the end date)? We’ve got a lot of projects with recurring schedules so it would be incredibly helpful for our templates to just have it set so Task A is 10 weeks prior to the master date, Task B is 7 weeks prior, etc.

Hi @Don_Barlett,

I’m developing a tool that does exactly that and I’m looking for beta testers. Would you be interested in trying the solution?

Best regards

That can also be done in and Excel Spreadsheet and have a CSV import, albeit Asana still need to fix the ability to import task description to the best of my knowledge

I know this is a little backwards to what you were saying be day spacing in its formula.
