Disabling Automatic Task Rescheduling

TL;DR

Account owners/admins can enable an experimental Wrike Labs feature to stop tasks from auto-rescheduling when work schedules change, people add time off, or assignees have schedule conflicts. Task dates will still shift for dependency chains. Enable or disable it in Wrike Labs.

Overview

Account owners and admins can disable automatic task rescheduling for the whole account. Admins on Legacy Enterprise, Pinnacle and Apex accounts should have permission to edit account settings in order to do so.

Important

This is an experimental feature, and as a result, it may have bugs, is subject to change, and may be discontinued at any time. Please feel free to use the feedback links in Wrike Labs to share your thoughts on this beta feature.

If you enable the feature all the dates stay in place when:

  • You edit account-wide work schedules

  • Task assignees add non-working days to their work schedules (vacations, sick leaves)

  • You assign a task to a person whose work schedule exceptions overlap with task dates

Note

Task dates will still be rescheduled if you shift dates for a task dependency chain.
