Calendar View

View your project’s Calendar to keep track of important deadlines and milestones happening within that project. You can also use Team Calendars for a greater overview and you can adjust the start day of your Calendar from your profile settings.

Only tasks and subtasks with due dates that are associated with the project will show on the project Calendar. Subtasks will need to be manually added to the project to appear on its calendar.

Create tasks in Calendar

To create a task in a Calendar, click the empty space on a given date, enter the task name and hit Enter.

Once the task has been created, you can then click on it directly to access the task details screen to add an assignee, fill out the fields, add a task description etc. and then click away from the pop up or click the X on the top right to finish.

Setting Colors on your project Calendar

The best way to set colors on project Calendar is to create custom fields and set colors for each field. Then, when you set a custom field value on tasks, that color can be viewed on your Calendar.

You can choose “Asana Default”, which pulls from other colors you have set in Asana, or you can set your color logic based on custom fields. Once you’ve chosen which custom field you’d like to use, you can save that view for everyone, so your entire team will see the same color logic when they view the project Calendar.

Calendar Options

You have an array of different options directly within the project Calendar view.

Subtask count

You can also view the amount of subtasks on a particular task directly from your calendar view.
