Optimizing timeline using Gantt View

[Paul_Warren1]

Hello Friends!

I’ve been getting very excited by the Gantt view! Especially the ability to push tasks and have all of the following tasks push with it.

Is it possible to pull all of the following tasks when pulling tasks backwards? Or a way to update a set of records to have no “dead” space between tasks?

Thank you!

I don’t think there is.

You could use a formula with DATETIME_DIFF() between child and parent so it flags where you have a gap between end and start date. You could also use this in an automation so that the start date of the child record changes to the end date of the parent record.
