Group by Week / Month / Year with Start / Due / Custom Dates
Ioannis Gkretsikos
I think that grouping is one of ClickUp's most powerful functionalities, as it can bring a ton of perspective and narrow focus on what's important.
A major functionality I've been missing, is the ability to group by dates in list / board view, in a meaningful way.
Currently, grouping by due dates is quite powerful - when used for future tasks.
Content management is the main reason we use ClickUp, therefore managing thousands of past articles and videos.
It would be extremely efficient if we could adopt the current due dates grouping, for start dates as well (we use start dates in place of "publishing date", since the start date field offers more reporting & filtering functionalities overall than custom date fields sadly).
So I think this is the best way it could work:
- Have all date fields available in the group by section -> Start Date, Due Date, Custom Date Field
- Offer the option to choose the grouping period -> Weekly (could show as W52, W51, W50 etc.), Monthly (Dec 2020, Nov 2020 etc.) and Yearly (2020, 2019 etc.)
- Offer the option to group periods either in an ascending, or descending manner.
I believe this will open the possibility for even more hyper-useful list & board views, that can not only be applied in content management, but any kind of workflow or database.

Please, we need the monthly grouping. I have to create a dropdown by months to be able to filter it and change the custom field when switching months

Yes definitely need grouping by 'timeframe' ie this week, next week, this month, next month, this quarter, next quarter, someday etc etc (as per akiflow). This grouping shouldn't necessarily require a date. ie if something is due in the future (for completion or review), I shouldn't need to set a specific date, but instead a timeframe (next week, next month, in 6 months.. etc etc)

Group by due date beyond tomorrow

It would be great to have tasks due beyond tomorrow grouped by week or configurable date range, rather than all in 'Future'.

Group by Month (Date Custom Field)

I have a list with closed tasks (purchases) and want to group them by payed date.
But when I see them, I want to see them grouped by month so I can create an spread with those tasks more easily

Group by date actually group by date in custom field

Right now grouping on a custom date field just groups into future, tomorrow, today, and past. I would like to group by each actual date, if that could be an option. It is useful for a project plan, a journal, etc. You could also make it the default grouping for date fields, and then add a switch "group all past items together" to replicate today's environment. Thanks for considering!

Customize sorting by due date groups

Is there a way to customize the time-based grouping (currently Overdue, today, soon, future etc.)? I would be great to have today, tomorrow, this week, next week, future or similar granularity.

Yes please this is a need especially for lists that have multiple tasks scheduled to be done on each day. A clear barrier between tasks scheduled for each actual day would be so helpful.
