Recurring tasks

To fit with the Kanban methodology, the recurring tasks are not based on a date but on board events.

• Recurring tasks are duplicated to the first column of the board when the selected events occurs
• The due date can be recalculated automatically
• Each task records the task id of the parent task that created it and the child task created

Configuration

Go to the task view page or use the dropdown menu on the board, then select Edit recurrence.

There are 3 triggers that currently create a new recurring task:

• Moving a task from the first column
• Moving a task to the last column
• Closing the task

Due dates, if set on the current task, can be recalculated by a given factor of days, months or years. The base date for the calculation of the new due date can be either the existing due date, or the action date.
