The relative plan of the tasks in the checklist template
Only the model moderators are authorized to modify the model tasks.
There is always a reference date for a checklist. For example, for the welcome of a new employee, the reference date is the someday when the new employee takes up his or her position. So there will be tasks to be done before, during and after the someday. This is what we call relative planning; D-30, D0, D+90, etc.
To configure the relative dates of the tasks in a checklist template :
Click on the template in question
Click on the Template Tasks tab
It is also possible to define relative dates when creating the template when entering tasks.
Examples of relative plan
It is possible to set the planned dates and due dates for the model tasks so that they are effective for all future checklists. Here are some examples to understand this use case:
