Past Due Automation
I would really like automation to have the ability to notify a user when a task becomes past due. Also have automation when a task becomes past due select a custom field, this way status will not have to change, but it can show up in reports.
Yes, how this isn't built-in from the beginning doesn't make sense. I'd like to have "this is due in X days" in addition to "this is past due X days".
Hello! Has there been any movement on the past due automation flow? This would be a game changer for my organization and would love to know if this is something that will be rolled out in the near future.
Hi Sal Guarino, welcome to the Community 👋🏻
The Product team is aware of this suggestion but currently, I don't have an update from them in relation to this idea. If there are any plans to introduce this functionality in the future, I'll be sure to post here.

Hi Kurt Ambrosius, I’m glad to announce that this week new triggers and one more action have been announced, you can see all the details here. It is possible to automatically mention a user when a task is past due:
Also, with the new options, you can automatically update a custom field’s value. At the moment, this possibility only applies to checkbox custom fields, but our Product Team is working on expanding the feature to more types.
Please, let us know if you find this information helpful and if you have any additional questions 👍
