Sort Your Tasks by Due Date

If you like to set dates on tasks, you’d probably like to view those tasks sorted by date. We’re excited to announce that now you can — just choose the “Date” option in our view selector.
The Date view has a few nifty features. When one of your tasks is running behind, it’s likely that many of them are. In the Date view, you can select multiple tasks and then use CMD+down to add a day to all of the due dates. This makes it easy to adjust schedules and keep the relative timings.
Another new feature of the Date view is that completed Tasks show up next to incomplete Tasks, so you can see your Tasks as a timeline. Once you’re done looking at completed Tasks, you can archive them to hide them.
Date sorting doesn’t interfere with Priority sorting, so you can switch between both views, depending on how you want to look at a Project. And with great power comes great responsibility – please make sure to communicate with the other people on the project so that you all agree to use priority or dates for ordering.
Dan,Excellent work on all the OF scripts I just disocvered them the other week but they already are making a big impact in my workflow. Thank you for sharing it.One question regarding the clear start and due dates script could the script be modified to also change the context of the task to, for instance, Someday ?
I just started using Asana and I love how easy it is to organize my business. I’m wondering, however, if it is possible to sort by due date on the iPhone app? I can’t seem to find a place to do that and although the tasks sync, the way I’ve sorted them does not. Any tips?
Hey Team.
Is there a solution to sorting/displaying tasks by due date on the iPhone mobile app?
Thank you.
Also wondering about sorting by due date on the iPhone app — it’s kind of useless to me without this functionality.
