BACKGROUND Using ClickUp Calendar for schedule work items Using Backlog with lists and filters PAIN The Filters to the Backlog in the calendar cannot be saved (as they can in other areas in ClickUp) This means I have manually update and change filters constantly. WORKAROUND No work around possible I have manually update and change filters constantly in the Backlog left sidebar REQUEST Add ability to save filters for the Calendar Backlog sidebar. These should be shared from the saved filters function elsewhere in ClickUp

Can't change/drag times once a task has been pulled into the planner. If a task is marked as "Done" it disappears from planner. Sidebar/Backlog Poorly organised - If I have tasks with Subtasks it's all muddled up. Sidebar/Backlog Organisation should be per list/location. When a task is dragged into the planner, it should be the actual task not a "Focus time", therefore a task should have have multiple "dates" it can be worked on and one actual hard deadline for the "due date". Another reason for this is so that opening the job card is easier to access all info. Time tracking should be made easier so can start time as soon as the task begins (earlier or later) then the planner automatically adjusts the start and finish times of the task. Add notifications if a ask should begin or Should be available as a card on your personal list.

When you link ClickUp tasks to a Google (or Outlook) calendar event, they should be visible as a clickable, stacked list inside the event block on the Planner grid, the same way tasks appear inside native focus blocks. Current behaviour: You can link tasks to a calendar event, but there's no visual indication on the Planner grid that tasks are attached. You have to click into the event to see them. They're hidden metadata rather than a usable at-a-glance workflow. Desired behaviour: Linked tasks render inside the calendar event block as a visible, clickable list, just like tasks dragged into a native focus block. You should be able to see what's planned for that time slot without opening the event, and click through to any task directly. Why this matters: Many users rely on recurring Google/Outlook events for repeating time blocks (since native focus blocks can't recur yet). This would bridge that gap significantly. The linking feature already exists, it just needs a visual layer on the Planner grid. It makes the Planner a genuine "what am I doing and when" view without having to click into every event to remember what you planned. Workarounds considered: Dragging tasks into native focus blocks: Works perfectly, but those blocks can't recur, so you're rebuilding them every week. Just remembering what's linked: Defeats the point of visual planning. If I have to click into every event to see what's in it, the Planner isn't doing its job at a glance.

I'd love the ability to create recurring focus blocks in the Planner that tasks can be dropped into each week, just like one-off focus blocks work today. Current behaviour: Focus blocks are one-offs. To get recurring time blocks, you have to use calendar events, but those don't display tasks as a stacked list inside the block. You can link tasks to an event, but it's not the same visual/functional experience as dragging tasks into a native focus block. Desired behaviour: A focus block that recurs on a set schedule (daily, weekly, custom) and acts as a container I can drag tasks into each week. Tasks should render inside the block as a visible list, exactly like they do for manually created focus blocks today. Workarounds considered (and why they don't cut it): Recurring Google/Outlook calendar events: These show up in the Planner grid, but you can't drag tasks into them the way you can with native focus blocks. You can link tasks to the event, but they don't appear as a stacked list inside the block. It's buried metadata, not a visual workflow. Not quick way to access the tasks contained in the block. Recurring tasks with time estimates: These appear in the sidebar and can be dragged onto the calendar, but they are a task, not a container for other tasks. You end up with a placeholder task that doesn't actually hold or display the real work you want to do in that block. Manually recreating focus blocks each week: Works, but defeats the purpose. If I have 4-5 repeating blocks per week, that's a lot of setup every Monday for something that should just be there. Use case: As a freelancer, I have repeating work sessions (e.g. mixing blocks, admin blocks) at roughly the same times each week. I want those blocks to appear automatically in my Planner so I can just drag the relevant tasks in without recreating the block every week.

When creating a meeting in Planner, ClickUp automatically assigns a video conferencing provider (Google Meet, Zoom, or SyncUp Call) — there's no way to remove it or leave the field blank. This is a problem for: In-person meetings, where a video link is irrelevant and confusing External tools like Microsoft Teams, which aren't in the native provider list, forcing you to keep an unrelated Zoom/Meet/SyncUp link attached anyway, and having more than one link sent to invitees. Right now the only workaround is manually adding the real meeting details (Teams link, physical location, etc.) in the description — while an unwanted video link still sits in the main event field, misleading attendees about how to join. Request: Add a "None" option in the video conferencing dropdown so users can create a meeting without any auto-assigned video call provider.

Use case We maintain a PTO calendar in Outlook that displays employee time off dates for the whole organization. When that Outlook calendar is synced with ClickUp, we'd want those PTO events to: Sync into each affected user’s Personal Time Off in ClickUp Display the time off dates on that user’s Profile Reflect availability more accurately across ClickUp Desired outcome If an employee has PTO logged in the Outlook PTO calendar, ClickUp should identify that event as time off for the relevant person and surface it the same way native Personal Time Off entries do. Why this matters This would help teams avoid duplicate manual entry, improve visibility into availability, and make resource planning more reliable when Outlook is the source of truth for time off.

ClickUp’s AI Time-blocking feature has so much potential, but there are a few improvements that would bring it up to par with tools like Motion + Sunsama + make it truly powerful for real-world workflows. Here are some key features that would make a huge difference: Working Hours by Space or List Let us set specific working hours per space or list. That way, tasks from a certain project or client can only be scheduled during the appropriate timeframes. (e.g., “Client A” tasks only show up between 10am–2pm, while “Admin” tasks stay outside of meeting hours.) Auto-Rescheduling Based on Completion Time When a time-blocked task is finished early, the calendar event should automatically shorten to reflect how long it actually took. For example, if a 30-minute block is finished in 10 minutes, update the block duration to 10 minutes and shift everything else up accordingly to fill the gap. This keeps the calendar accurate and makes the most of open time. Buffer Time Between Tasks Let us set a default buffer (like 5 or 10 minutes) between events. That way, tasks don’t get stacked back-to-back with no breathing room. This is especially important between meetings and deep work blocks. Ability to Change the Calendar After Scheduling Right now, if a time block ends up on the wrong calendar, we have to delete + re-add it. It would be a huge time-saver to allow us to change the calendar directly from the time block or task view. Flexible Task Scheduling Settings Add options per task to control how it’s scheduled: should it be done all at once, or can it be broken into multiple smaller sessions? This kind of granularity would help us schedule more intentionally + reduce decision fatigue. These changes would make AI time-blocking in ClickUp a lot more flexible, human-friendly, + aligned with how we actually work.

[from support] It would be helpful to have a Yearly calendar view instead of just monthly/weekly/daily

I would like to request the ability to assign different holiday calendars to different users, teams, or regions within a single workspace. Currently, only one holiday calendar can be applied workspace-wide, which does not accommodate organizations with teams in multiple countries or regions. Why this is important: Our teams operate in different countries, each with its own set of public holidays. We need workload and utilization reports to accurately reflect each person’s true availability, based on their local holidays. Applying a single holiday calendar to all users leads to inaccurate reporting and scheduling. Suggested Solution: Allow admins to assign a holiday calendar per user, team, or location. Ensure workload and utilization calculations use each person’s assigned holiday calendar to determine available hours. This feature would greatly improve resource planning and reporting accuracy for global teams. Thank you for considering this request!
