Template relative dates

I’m creating a template from a project. It automatically defaults to “days after”.

I change it to “before project due date” for all tasks, but it changes the number of days.

Why cannot it not pick the relative date from the current project? If the current project is due 11/01 and the task is due 10 days prior to the project due date, why is not picking up that date?

Hi @Stephanie_Whitesides , it’s not clear from you post what you have tried and what you are trying to achieve but such issues usually arise from business days and weekends having an affect. Did you try clicking on the ‘Skip weekends’ checkmark before applying the new scheduling method to Before or After?

For what it’s worth, each time you change the scheduling method (due date rule) to either After the project’s start date or Before the project’s due date, Asana will reset all relative dates between the earliest task and the latest task within the project template.
