Has anyone figured out a good way to set the start date of tasks in a blueprint based off the submission date of a request form?
Example: a request form is submitted today (2/25/2025) and I have it set to automatically create a project from a specific Blueprint ("Requested Project Blueprint") which already has certain dates applied to each task. The first task in the Requested Project Blueprint is assigned to me and I'd like the date to automatically populate as the date the form was submitted.
Typically, when creating a project from a Blueprint you can set the start date for the first task and that will update all the dates based off their durations and predecessors. However, when creating a project automatically from a Request Form, it pulls the existing obsolete dates from the Blueprint which are often dates in the past. I tried playing around with some automations but couldn't find a workaround. If anyone currently does this I'd love some help, thanks!
