Hi Fabien - sorry if I hijacked your bug report. I suspect the mods (@CommunityManagerOnly ) are assuming/treating your report and mine as the same issue. I do see that you have planned your templates to create projects starting only on Monday (vs. mine which I moved to start on a Wednesday in one case), but still have an issue with needless gaps being added. I agree your issue is not identical, and I suspect we could find some more odd behaviors with various templates. So far the big failure modes are:
- Space (of 1 day) added between 2 Tasks for no reason (your report)
- Days (two) added to Task 3 for no reason (mine)
- Dependency crunch created from Task 3 being moved to start earlier, despite scheduling constrained only by a Start Date (mine)
It took me all of 5 minutes to find the 2 wrong behaviors I note. More time spent testing various cases and combination of starting template, starting day or date, and active use of the project (including rescheduling) could produce more error reports, probably all variations on a theme.
The above, to my eye, fully makes the case that the calculation of project days based on a template has serious bugs. The solution will be to thoroughly inspect whatever is creating those erroneous calcs and fix it. All the bugs above will then be solved at the same time. However, I would not recommend holding my breath for Asana to fix. This is just my opinion, user to user. I’m sorry…
