Improvement in Tasks Dashboard
under review
Ramesh Lokesh
The Tasks card on the dashboard only shows tasks for the current calendar week (Sunday–Saturday), not a rolling 7-day window. This means a task assigned on a Friday with a due date the following Tuesday won't appear on the dashboard until Monday, leaving almost no reaction time before it's due. Tasks assigned near the end of a week, or with due dates just past the week boundary, can sit invisible on the dashboard for days before ever surfacing.
A few of our customer's are dashboard-driven and they rely on the dashboard (not the full Tasks view) to react to newly assigned work.
The current week-based logic undermines that workflow, since tasks can be invisible on the dashboard for extended periods depending on when in the week they're assigned.
Requested at minimum: change the dashboard Tasks card filter from "current week" to a rolling 7-day window.
Ideal/preferred solution: let users choose the bucket shown on the dashboard Tasks card, e.g.:
Overdue
Next 7 days
Next 14 or 30 days
All tasks (fallback/last resort)

Hi Ramesh Quicksilver Firefly
Thank you for the detailed feedback and for explaining how your team uses the dashboard in day-to-day work. We understand that limiting the Tasks card to the current calendar week can create visibility gaps, especially for tasks assigned near the end of the week with due dates in the following week. This can delay awareness of newly assigned work and reduce the dashboard's effectiveness for teams that rely on it as their primary workspace.
We agree that a more time-relative approach - such as a rolling
Next 7 Days
view - would provide better visibility into upcoming work, regardless of calendar boundaries. We also see value in making the Tasks card more flexible by allowing users to choose the task window or view that best fits their workflow, whether that's Overdue
, Next 7 Days
, Next 14/30 Days
, or All Tasks
. We'll evaluate these improvements to ensure the experience is both proactive and adaptable.Ramesh Lokesh
