@Alexander_Knutsson it looks like you're using Butler Bot is that correct? Because I can't see anywhere in the integrated version of Butler that has "entered a card name ending in a date".

If so, you should be able to use date arithmetic as per these instructions:

Hello @Alexander_Knutsson

Glad to answer your question.

Setting dates in a "Do not disturb" way that is with exceptions of - not working days is currently not available. No power-up can do that as well just yet.

The flexibility available on the due dates so far is;

Due Date Reminder Intervals.

This I can say is related in a way to this question

But only on exemptions on holidays and weekends.

Thank you I hope this counts.
