Recurring dependent tasks
Hello, community! I'm loving the new recurring task functionality in beta, but one of our users has hit a snag and I'm not sure how to guide her. She has three tasks which are recurring, sequential, and assigned to different individuals. When the tasks recur, will the dependencies be carried with them?
Emily, thank you for your feedback! It is much appreciated. Because of the nature of recurring tasks (you get new task each time), dependencies do not duplicate with it, as the other tasks do not get duplicated. However, this is a more complex scenario that we will take into consideration.

Hello,
I could imagine this feature might be really useful to anyone else with repetitive monthly tasks that require a team of people to work in a strict sequence. For instance, we need it for payroll processing.
Hopefully it will be judged useful soon.
Having the ability to set a group of tasks to recur to maintain the dependencies would be very useful!
Yes! For marketers this would be great to automate my campaigns that run on an a seasonal cycle. I've set up all the dependencies and I can manually copy over a "template" to create a new project, but if I could set an entire project to reoccur and duplicate its dependencies, that would be fantastic.
Adding my vote!
Hi. is there any update on this?
I want the dependencies to be carried over to the recurring tasks next.
Hi Saad F, sorry for the delay.
No update at the moment, but rest assured that the feedback shared here is with our Product Team and once the idea reaches the 60+ vote threshold, we'll be able to add a status.

not seeing it but I also agree with above. it would also be extremely useful to establish recurrent tasks in blueprint stage so once they are moved out to folders they are already set up

I really struggle with this for my creative team working on monthly social media posts and designs. Just two team members, each with a recurring task, and one has a dependency on the other. Would really love this feature—would make wrike much more worth the money!

Has this been changed? Has anyone found a good work around beside entering all tasks for the upcoming year?
Welcome to the Community, IT Service! We don't have an update at the moment, but it would be great to learn more about your use case!
