In my setup of OF2 I have a few conditional daily tasks that I want to show up every day but not do every day.
Now I’m a little stuck with the correct setup. If I set up all tasks and the action group to defer 1 day and tick off the action group all tasks get duplicated. If I don’t set the action group to defer it won’t show up the next day.
Is there any workaround for that?
Example:
4/5 days I need to prepare customer invoices. That task includes a few steps such as:
check invoice
send it to customer
set up a follow up reminder
If I don’t need to send an invoice I’d like to be able to just tick off the action group. If I need to send some out I’d like to tick off the actions one by one.
In these kinds of situations, I usually set up just the action group to defer out one day. When it repeats, an action group will duplicate all of its contained actions, so you’ll still have a complete set of daily tasks for the next time you do them. However, since each task isn’t set to repeat, they won’t duplicate themselves as well – you’ll only have a single copy of each contained task in the repeated group.
For example, you might use this kind of setup:
Note how the action group is set to repeat, but all the contained actions are just plain actions. Hope that helps!
thanks for your reply. With this workaround I just need to be reminded to never complete the last task in the group or it wont work. Unfortunately…
Would be great if there would be a fix so you could either check the action group or the tasks within.
