I'd also love to get your input on what we should build next, specifically in the project management space.
If you'd like to share your thoughts, here's a 1-min survey.

Bugra Oktay Yay, thank you. Will there be options to choose to either schedule on the day before the weekend or after the weekend?

Heather - Not in the first version but I'm all ears about needs like this to improve upon it.

Bugra Oktay I use recurring tasks to keep track of invoicing for clients. Some clients require invoices on a specific day of the month and if that date falls on a weekend, some ask for it on the next business day and others on the last business day before it. At the moment, I manually reschedule everything that falls on a weekend and pray it doesn't mess up the recurrence for the following month. Mostly works out okay but if I could set this rule when setting up the recurrence, that would be incredibly useful.

Bugra Oktay It almost got into Kinder Garden this idea.

Heather Bugra Oktay something similar is happening to us, it's a nightmare, and we're constantly getting requests from the team to update due dates manually because of it

Heather Lu Leite - Thank you for the insights; need understood. For now, it will skip to the next working day. I hope that helps make things relatively easier in the meanwhile.
Robert Hudman
Bugra Oktay - another great one to get moving on - thanks!

This is a basic function of project management tools. We should be able to set our work week into the system so that when tasks are rescheduled, they follow the days we are actually working. My team was so excited to use the dependency feature to have tasks remapped if/when dates changed. But this feature has been borderline useless to us because it keeps remapping dates on the weekends. My expectation would have been that if a task has a duration of 3 days, and I need to move the start date to Thursday, the end date would be Monday. Instead it keeps choosing Saturday. We're seriously disappointed. This shouldn't be a feature that we and other users have to ASK for. It should have been included from the start.

Please enable skip weekends and holidays feature so due dates make sense for task tracking. It's difficult to get system buy-in and tout all the automations when the first thing we have to say is fix the dates manually.
Kristin Bradford
Please enable skip weekends AND holidays!

Hello, this takes forever. Is there any realistic timeframe when the feature can be expected? Thank you.

Any update here? Amber - ClickUp this feature update will be a HUGE win for all of us.
Emily Fink
Can we please get an update on this? I was told last October that "This update is set for next quarter, which runs from November through January, so you can expect the release sometime within that period."

It would be much simpler to enter the duration of the task, which automatically would compute the end date, including weekends and vacation time and possible dependencies.

This is a basic feature for any project management tool...indicate working days. Scheduling over weekends throws everything off and confuses those assigned to tasks/subtasks when viewing in the list view. Can you please make this a PRIORITY?
Nora Wildenstein
This issue should be changed as soon as possible! If weekends are counted in days, automations after a certain number of days make little sense, as you often have to convert them manually. Please adjust as soon as possible and count the working week from Mon-Fr.
