Set Due Date Based On Custom Date Field
Christopher Rosa
Add the ability to change the Due Date of a task in Automations based on a custom date field, where the trigger would be setting a custom date field, which then sets the task due date.

Agreed, I'd like to be able to set one custom date field, and then have the start date and due date calculated based on that one field.
ie: 1) Publication date (custom field) set to today
2) Automation sets start date equal to publication date
3) Automation sets due date equal to publication date + 6 days
Any combination of this would work in my opinion. I just want to be able to use one date field, and have the other date fields auto fill based on logic that I've set in an automation.

Yes, or allow the Due Date of a task to be a formula. For our product launches, task due date is based on a certain number of day pre or post product launch. I've worked with support to create a custom formula field that gives the actual task date. But it doesn't show up the calendar view or an Everything view in order to schedule (time block)/plan the work week.

Can we have this?

The same would be to set a automation based on the previous due date, currently i only see the option to set due dates based on a trigger day

Converting or designating Date Custom Fields as a Task's Due Date(s)

Ultimately, I need a way to designate multiple dates from a form that syncs with Outlook. If I could convert the date custom field to the due date(s), that would take care of the problem.

I have a few workflows where there are multiple deadlines for each task, I have these deadlines showing as custom fields, but the assignee will only see the due date in their task or home view. But the due date is the ultimate deadline for everything to be finished and there are multiple elements that need to be completed before that. If it was possible to assign the date custom field as the actual due date at different stages in the workflow (as it moves through statuses) that would be very helpful for building processes in many areas of business!

Specifically, I would love to be able to do this as "set the due date x time period relative to the custom date."
