Overview

Date rollup is available for Business and higher accounts. Regular users can enable and disable date rollup.

Instead of manually setting project dates, you can enable dates rollup. Wrike will automatically check the start and end dates of all subprojects, tasks, and subtasks within the project and set the earliest start date and the latest end date for the project.

Once you enable rollup for a project, the project’s dates will be set automatically and you’ll no longer be able to change them manually. If you or other users change the start date of the earliest task, subtask, or subproject or the end date of the latest one, the rolled-up project dates will be adjusted automatically.

Note

When rolling up dates, Wrike takes into account all the items in the project (even the filtered out ones).
