Relative Date & Time for Automations (ex: schedule 7 days before due date)
completed
Joey
Examples:
- "7 days before the start date..."
- "Each Monday..."
- When ANY date changes to ANY date
- Use Date custom fields as automation triggers
- Be able to use Automations to change items such as Due Dates using relative dates, I.E. "Next Monday"
- "When a task becomes overdue I can then set it to 'Done'"
- Etc.

This isn't complete. There's still no option to set for a relative date like "next Monday" or "last Friday of the month"

PLEASE!! Such a simple and necessary Automation- I could do it in Asana without any trouble.

Zach - ClickUp Still unable to see how i can trigger an automation for example: 7 days before the Due Date. The "Every" Trigger gives options for scheduling weekly/monthly etc. but not based on due dates. Also the Due Date arrives trigger doesn't have an option to do "7 days before due date"

Hey Zach - ClickUp I'm intrigued to see this is complete - does that mean it's rolled out to all users or just Beta? If the former, is there a support article to help me get started? Thanks!

It would be very helpful to be able to configure the creation of a new task with the dates of the condition activation tasks.

We are constantly in a product launch and really need to be able to set the task Due Date based on the number of days prior as well as post Launch Date. If this could be done in one list, that would be even better where we could assign a task as Pre or Post launch. 0 would equal a launch date task on either Pre or Post.

Please also thoroughly test dates and dependencies, as rescheduling often does not work as expected (even though dependencies mapping is turned on).

Zach - ClickUp, in using this new function we've hit a snag and could really use an option to trigger an automation # WEEKdays before/after. I know the function of working days and holidays is still in progress, but just being able to avoid triggering things on weekends when it's supposed to be "one day before due" and by then it is too late.

Joey Zach - ClickUp Your title "Relative Date & TIME for Automations" is misleading. As far as I know, there is no support for entering specific times in the automations for dates. Overall, the time aspect of dates is very weak. See this bug CLK-637475 among others. The default time for dates set via automation is 4 am no matter what which is frustrating and even more infuriating when you are boasting about a "completed" feature request.

It's a great start, and I'm looking forward to more ways to use this functionality! Like being able to use this in the "Then" portion of automations. For example... instead of every Friday, do this... I would LOVE to be able to say for every new task, set the due date to the next Friday.
