Auto populate dates for tasks based on start date and predetermined durations

It would be great to auto populate task dates by presetting durations for tasks/activities for an engagements. Additionally, if a task shifts or is delayed, that the following tasks would shift and update appropriately if there are preset dependencies for completion. This would be a huge time savings!

    To add on to this: the ability for users to "select recurring task" which would allow the line item to be mass duplicated by setting the number of times or an end date and cadence (e.g. daily, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly).


    Example, Status report for 12 weeks and the first line item has a due date of 5/7/23 and all future items also auto-fill the dates so Status report 2 would automatically put the date 5/14/23.


    If using the Status report function, it should automatically create the line item, with date and attach that version of the status report for saving into Save It.


    Need: We have so many projects that last over a year and creating 52+ line items is very tedious - most teams may be bypassing Concourse and uploading directly in Save It or only having one line item with multiple uploads (hard to track if completed).

    This would be a great feature for Concourse. Many of our teams work in Projects religiously so having features similar to MS Projects in Concourse would work best.

    Yes, we are currently working on a managed service capability for Decentralized Clinical Trials, and this feature would help us greatly to understand how upstream delays impact timelines and deliverables downstream. This is a big concern, as we don't want to have to push major milestones like FPFV. This would take about 2 hrs of manual work to complete each time there was a change or delay.
