Recurring Dates in Routine Task List

I'm hoping one of you could help. I'm currently making a daily 2 week routine task list and would like each date in the due date column to automatically update upon the end of the 2 week routine.

I have tried a workflow with a trigger to record a date. However, this changes the column into one date.

Any suggestions for alternative automations that i can use?

Are you able to provide some screenshots for reference?

Hi @Paul Newcome - Thank you for your reply. Here is a screenshot. I'm trying to find a solution on how the due dates will automatically change after the 2 week routine and will populate the next due column for when the task is again due (for another 2 weeks).

Would you be able so suggest an automation or formulas that can do that?

Thanks again.

Try this:

=IF([Due Date]@row + (((INT((TODAY() - [Due Date]@row) / 14)) + IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY()) = WEEKDAY([Due Date]@row), 1)) * 14) - 14 = TODAY(), TODAY(), [Due Date]@row + (((INT((TODAY() - [Due Date]@row) / 14)) + IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY()) = WEEKDAY([Due Date]@row), 1)) * 14))

I have tried using the formula at the next due column but its just copying the due date.

Do i need to enable any workflow automation or dependency for for the formula to function?

Give this tweak a try:

=IF([Due Date]@row + (((INT((TODAY() - [Due Date]@row) / 14)) + IF(WEEKDAY(TODAY()) = WEEKDAY([Due Date]@row), 1)) * 14) - 14 = TODAY(), TODAY(), [Due Date]@row + (((INT((TODAY() - [Due Date]@row) / 14)) + IF(OR(WEEKDAY(TODAY()) = WEEKDAY([Due Date]@row), INT((TODAY() - [Due Date]@row) / 14) = 0), 1)) * 14))
