Automating task due dates based on final deadline

Thomas August 3, 2022

I am currently trying to put together an automation on my board for a store opening.

The issue I am having is that I would like to have cards with different labels have automated due dates based on the final deadline.

For example if Store X opens on the first of October I would like all cards with the PR label  to have a deadline of four weeks before the store opens and all cards with the Signage label to be completed eight weeks prior to the store opening.

 

Is this possible? I've tried a few methods I have seen online to no avail.

 

Any  help would be greatly appreciated

Hey @Thomas ! Welcome to the community :) are you able to share any of the automation commands you've tried so far?

Not sure if this is close to what you want, but it might help lead you down the right path!

when the blue "PR" label is added to a card, lookup a card titled "Project End Date", set custom field "Project End Date" to "{foundcardduedate}", and set due date on the date in custom field "Project End Date" minus 4 weeks

Thank you so much, that was just what I was looking for, I'd found a query/solution that went down the route of duplicating cards/lists/checklists which was a little overcomplicated for my needs.
