Can I automatically update the due date of a recurring task?

Mohit Singh

I have a set of recurring tasks that have regular due dates. For example, one is due every month on the 8th of the month. I have a column in my smartsheet file that tracks the next due date. I intend to use it to send out reminders for team members who have not submitted their work on time. Is there any way to automatically keep this due date column updated? As in, once it is the ninth of this month, the value in the due date cell would no longer be 06/08/17, but 07/08/17? Any advice would be much appreciated!

This is not functionality that I have personally used, but you might consider one of these methods found in this post by smartsheets. https://www.smartsheet.com/blog/smartsheet-tips-managing-recurring-tasks-and-events

Perhaps listing a single task, and scheduling monthly reminders would do the trick. See #2 in the post.
