Kanban View by Date

@Marianne_Hislop There are a number of ways that you could do this. One potential option is to create a single select field with various tags containing the date period in which you want to do the task:

This would result in a view similar to this:

You could also label them Week [0-52] for brevity/clarity. This is one of many options that would allow you to see more task information.

That being said, I would suggest sticking with the calendar and adding the kanban view: have a calendar view that shows the dates, and have a kanban view that shows what is currently being worked on like this:

This way, one can differentiate between due dates and project status. Furthermore, I still get the benefit of having a field that is actually typed as a date for any future formulas that I need to use the date information. If you still want some form of time frame on each task, I like to do a relative due date that looks something like this:

Based on the colors, I can clearly tell what is coming up (green means I have a month or more, yellow means I’ve got weeks left, orange means a day or so, and red means it’s past due. There are no red one’s in my example). Here is an example formula that you can tweak to your liking:

IF(
    {Status}="Completed",
    "Completed ✅",
    IF(
        DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "years")>0,
        IF(
            DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "years")=1,
            "Due in 1 year 🟢",
            "Due in " & DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "years") & " years 🟢"
        ),
        IF(
            DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "months")>0,
            IF(
                DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "months")=1,
                "Due in 1 month 🟢",
                "Due in " & DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "months") & " months 🟢"
            ),
            IF(
                DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "weeks")>0,
                IF(
                    DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "weeks")=1,
                    "Due in 1 week 🟡",
                    "Due in " & DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "weeks") & " weeks 🟡"
                ),
                IF(
                    DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "days")>0,
                    IF(
                        DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "days")=1,
                        "Due tomorrow 🟠",
                        "Due in " & DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "days") & " days 🟡"
                    ),
                    IF(
                        DATETIME_DIFF({Due Date}, TODAY(), "days")=0,
                        "Due today 🟠",
                        "Past due 🔴"
                    )
                )
            )
        )
    )
)

It relies on a field called Status and Due Date. The first to check if the task is completed, the second to pull the actual due date from and do these relative calculations.

I hope this gives you some ideas!
