It would be awesome if we could use workflows to create a repeating task. We have several tasks that need to be repeated weekly. We can use a workflow to create the initial task, but have to rely on everyone’s memory to check the “repeat task” box for themselves. As we work to eliminate this type of human error, there is a need for more flexible automation capabilities. THANKS!

Great idea! I would also love to assign a task to more than one person. That would be WONDERFUL!

We also need a repeating task for workflows! For example, on a existing ‘deal’ we do weekly check in emails to the client. We need a workflow to allow this just like a manual task currently allows.
