How do I automatically set duration of one task to the same duration of another task?

NavyPilot

This would be easy if I could set a formula like "=[Duration]1 but we can't. I've tried setting predecessors to 1SS, 1FF and that doesn't work either. Any ideas?

Hi @NavyPilot

There currently isn't a way to automatically have the duration match the same as a previous task; you could out in 1SS and then manually add in the same Duration number in order for the task to match the previous task. Please let the Product team know of your feedback on our project features by filling in this form, here!

Thanks @Genevieve P.

I've been pretty much doing that as a workaround but if you have many tasks with this condition, it just adds to the workload of maintaining.
