Is there any Todoist integration that can schedule an existing next subtask when I complete the previous one?
I do not mean “complete a task and create a brand-new follow-up task.” I tried Todoist Task Helper and that isn't what I'm looking for. I do not want to create a new task, because the later subtasks already exist. I need the next existing step to show up only after the previous step is complete.
What I am hoping for is:
- I have one parent task with a sequence of subtasks: step 1 & 2 are dated/visible.
- Later steps exist but are undated because they depend on prior steps.
I want this because when I complete a step, I have to remember to go to the project, review the whole sequence again, decide which next step is now relevant, and manually date it. I just keep forgetting to do that.
Example:
- Contact a company about a repair (date: today)
- Follow up if no response received (date: next week)
- If/when the company replies, send any requested additional information
- Once received, print return label and pack it up
- Ship the item
- Check refund/replacement status
In this example, when I complete step 2, I want step 3 to automatically become visible (automatic "today" date or reminder or label or something?).
Has anyone done this with an integration or workaround?
