Out of office redirect
Brandon Anderson
Obviously, this will depend on how you use clickup. But for some of our process, assigning a task to someone is a relatively quick process for them to get it done. We need someone else to be monitoring the tasks when they are gone. So if someone is out of the office, it would be great if there could be an optional redirect for the person assigning the task. Basically a message "hey, the person you are assigning this tasks to is away from x date to x date. Their backup is User Y, would you like to assign this to them instead?" (or just get the whole groups thing done, as this would alleviate most of the problem for us, but either or both solutions could be helpful)

This would be a very valuable feature for us. I think that it would be nicer if the re-assignment would happen automatically instead of asking. Perhaps a feature where the re-assignment/re-direct could be set for a user for a specific or indefinite length of time. When that re-assignment/re-direct ended then those assignments that were being directed/assigned to the backup user (User Y), would be automatically switched to the original user (User X). Maybe it could still show the original user (User X) in the assignment, but with a small icon on the profile image indicating that the assignment is being redirected. All of the notifications and actual assignments (showing up in their tasks) would then go to the backup user (User Y) until the re-assignment/re-direction period ended.
