#773: Quire Feedback
Status: Completed

I'm trying to figure out how to best implement Quire for my personal small business. My goal is to have recurring projects each month. For example, I have to get financial reports to a client each month by the 20th. I created a project called "Monthly Reports for x" I then listed out each task that needs to be done to finish this monthly project. This looks great so far except I'm having trouble assigning a due date to the project as a whole (I assigned a due date to the final task within the project though) and I want this project to be recreated each and every month automatically. It seems like I can do both of these things if I change the 'project' to a task with a bunch of sub tasks. Is this the solution?

Hi Kevin, Yes, you are right. You can read more on hierarchy in the guide and the blog post. Would something like an "inbox" - a general place for you to dump your ideas and tasks before you decide where they go - be close to what you have in mind?

My point is, how do you have a recurring task that is not assigned to a project? I don't even see where I can create a task without creating a project. It seems like you must create a project, then create a task (and then subtasks) Is the hierachy: Organization>Project>Task>Sub-task ? I like having the Organizations, but would like to skip having a Project and instead just have a bunch of recurring "Tasks" under each of my "Organizations" (clients)

Hi Kevin, Yes. You can try creating a recurring task called “Monthly Reports for x” and list out all things need to be done under it as subtasks, sub-subtasks and so on.

No I already use my inbox for that. I'm essentially looking for a place (Quire) where I keep all my recurring checklists (to do lists) for each of my clients. The best example is that for "company x" (organization), I need to "send of monthly reports" (project), so [insert check list of actionable items] (list). Multiply that example by 20 in Quire. The way Quire looks to me so far, I can't have the project recur monthly, therefore how am I supposed to keep the checklists recurring?
