Was anything ever implemented for duration? This seems crazy that it wouldn't be for a project management software

Bugra Oktay
Jennifer Breitbach: yes, you can now set durations for tasks and use them in Gantt.

This is one of the few really missing features of clickup for a proper PM, I strongly advice about this feature. Input = start date, duration. End date is always an output, and it has to be monitored

Riccardo Starace: you are absolutely right. You can now set and use durations in ClickUp.

It'd be really helpful to have the option to add a minimum task duration column. We might plan 2 months for a task in our schedule, but we know it absolutely can't be less than 6 weeks. And then have that min. duration block any rescheduling of that task that would cause the dates to be less than 6 weeks.

Yes, it is a make it or break feature, and not very complicated to implement given the wealth of date libraries in existance, that could calculate now()+X days ahead (with nuances such as remove weekends, at least if not holidays).

Absoulutely need a gantt view for estimated time to be able to predict how long a project willl take, this is essential! the only work around i can see is to set up fake manual dates based on the time estimates and go from there???
Ian Lalonde
I don't understand that this is not yet integrated. It's a must for any PM system

This is basic functionality of a Gantt Chart. Not only should it display duration, but you should also be able to enter a tasks duration from the start date. E.g. - starts: tomorrow; Duration: one year; then end date automatically populates one year and one day. Please work to add this immediately. Without duration, the Gantt Chart is worthless. Without the Gantt Chart, this is not really project management software. You need someone on your team that has experience in waterfall project management.

-Add Duration
-When adding Start date from Gantt View it automatically opens the Due date dialog box. Change to open Start Date
-Ability to move items into different lists in Gantt View, currently only possible from List or table view
- Allow import Export of MSProject files (MPP and XML)
- Add column for Predecessor and Successors
- When you manually update the date it doesn't reschedule dependencies of the linked tasks out like it does when you drag the bar

Thanks for the suggestions! Adrian Wellman
