Automatically update Commit Date when the Due Date Changes

The majority of our team sorts their My Work area by Commit Date but when a task due date changes, the commit date stays the same. It would be great if the commit date would change to re-prioritize on the user's Working On tab.

Great idea, I keep having to explain this to our users...

I vote for the button/alert in the task item on the My Work page that Greg has proposed. (The user may not be able to commit to the new planned date - but they need alerted to make that change.)

Even better - have a button/alert in the work item that tells a user that the Due Date has changed and that they should consider changing their Commit Date.

Take it one step further - add info on what the Due Date is, alongside the Commit Date - that way, users can see the clear distinction that their Commit Date is independent of the Task's Due Date in the Project.

Yes please. If the project task were to change (moving up or back) this change should feed to the My Work tab and change there as well. My team gets an update from me on each project that tells them they can flip flop the tasks to get the right dates. But there may be several tasks to flip back to "request to work on it tab" and then flop it back to "working on it" tab. What a waste of my time as well as theirs no matter if the change the dates on the actual My Work task or if the flip flop it.

My vote is Heck yes!

I cannot vote "Yes" on this enough times to reflect the folks on my team requesting this ability.

agree. if the date changes the user has to manually adjust their commit dates
