The goal of this automation request is to reduce the amount of human interaction/error with task date changes based on known parameters and better predict project completion when specific tasks reach a certain status. Below I have laid out an example of how we would like this functionality to work:
We know from experience that packaging samples take 25 days from the time the files are submitted by our packaging team to when they are shipped by the factory. We have a custom workflow for our Packaging Design task. In an ideal world, once the status is changed to "ARF/Proof Sent, Awaiting Final" the due date for the task would be automatically adjusted to 25 days from the date that status change was made. This helps us predict when the final packaging will be complete, thus when we will be nearing production start. This also gives our purchasing team insight as to when the first PO should ship so they can plan logistics on containers and what will be loaded with each PO.
This would be a greatly appreciated automation that could help expand our Wrike usage to other departments within our organization.
Cheers!
