Hi everyone, I’m happy to share that it’s now possible to have rules set due dates in the past for subtasks! 🎉

You can find more information about this in our latest Product announcement, [New Date Actions in Rules!](https://forum.asana.com/t/new-date-actions-in-rules/952161).

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback! 🙂
