You need only change the key event labels, add the applicable tasks, assign them to key events and offsets and you are good to go. It takes only a few minutes to clone one project spreadsheet, say, “Take a Business Trip” for use with a different project, perhaps, “Onboard New Employee”. The tasks are then copied into an Obsidian project, where the Tasks plugin recognizes them and uses them as if they were home-grown. The spreadsheet date arithmetic and concantenation formulas construct properly formatted and scheduled tasks. Tasks are assigned to a key event and an offset. Key event dates are set in Excel fixed cells. I manage Recurring Projects by using Excel to do the date arithmetic needed for scheduling. Obsidian supports templates that can be used for checklists.īecause Obsidian works with locally maintained, plain text files you can create tasks easily in other software.įor example, I use Shortcuts on my Watch as well as Drafts on any platform to create properly formatted tasks and save them to the appropriate Obsidian files. The Tasks plugin in Obsidian handles recurring actions with considerable flexibility – very similar to what is available in Todoist. I do this in Obsidian, which is free for personal use and is available on macOS, iOS, iPadOS, and Windows.
