Standard Project Selection, when creating a "Create Task" Rule

[Thomas_Hartmann]

Hi,
I haven’t found a solution to my problem in the Forum, yet.

I am setting up a simple rule, that when a task is completed, a new task is created.
The new task is filled with various infos, but the problem I am facing is, that I want to home this task in a certain project.
I can add one or several projects, but I can’t delete the project it automatically comes with

I know, I could workaround with a subtask or something else, but I was wondering why there is always a project I can’t delete.

Thanks

Hello @Thomas_Hartmann - I did some testing in my space and it appears that it will not let you delete the current project the task lives in because that’s where the rule is being triggered from.

I did build out a rule that could work as a workaround. This would involve an additional custom field in order to specify the task but the rules is (when) custom field value is changed (check if) value is X (do this) remove task from project. This would be an additional rule along side the one you currently have.

Thanks @Alex_Christensen ,
I have built something similar now. I was just wondering if this is a limitation or if it can be fixed in general.

Thanks again.
