How to set a recurrence for a task:
When a task needs to be repeated, you can set a recurrence period to ensure it is automatically recreated, following the rule.
1 - Open a task and its properties window.
2 - In the Date section, click on the "+" button to set a start date or a due date for your task.
3 - Extend the drop-down menu of the "Repeat" tab at the bottom of the Calendar window, choose how often you want the task to recur - Daily, weekly, fortnightly, monthly, or yearly. You can base the recurrence on either the task’s start date or due date.
NOTE: If you set a recurrence based on the Due Date, a copied new task will be automatically and immediately generated once the current task is marked as complete.
How to set date rules:
This feature lets you automatically schedule a task's date based on other lead time or milestones, which helps saving time and reduces manual work.
Here’s how it works:
- Lead Time: Set a date that happens before or after another key date (e.g., start a task 3 days before the project's due date).
- Milestone: Set a date that happens before or after another event (e.g., follow-up 2 days after launch).
You can define:
- Duration type: Days, weeks or months.
- Priority: Whether it happens before or after.
- Based date: Linked to a task’s start date or due date; or project's start date or due date.
Once set, Taskworld auto-adjusts your task’s date if the related date changes, keeping everything aligned.
