Problem Statement
- Next Dimension wants to prevent certain users from changing the Due Date of tasks generated from templates.
- Currently, users can modify these due dates, which creates inconsistencies in standardized workflows and impacts delivery timelines.
Proposed Solution
- Introduce a tickable permission in Settings | User that restricts users from editing the Due Date of tasks created from templates.
- When enabled, the Due Date field should be locked or read-only for those users on template-generated tasks.
Expected Outcomes
- Teams can enforce standardized timelines defined in templates.
- Reduced risk of workflow misalignment or unintended deadline changes.
- Greater administrative control over task governance.
Success Metrics
- Reduction in due date changes on template-generated tasks.
- Positive feedback from Next Dimension and other enterprise clients.
- Increased adoption of permission controls in User Settings.
