1. Click the calendar icon to add a relative due date.
2. Select a trigger date and time frame relative to that date then click [Set Date Rule].
3. Click [Save Template].These date rules will be applied every time the checklist is added to a transaction in the future.

Edit Checklist Templates

Once you've added a template to a transaction, any edits made on that specific checklist are not applied back to the template.

To edit a checklist template:

Click the gear and choose "Edit Template".

Here are a few things you can do:

• Reorder tasks: To reorder tasks, hover to the right of the task until a hand appears. Click, drag, and drop the task to the appropriate place on the list.
• Change due date: Change a task's due date by clicking the calendar icon.
• Remove due date: Remove a due date by clicking the calendar icon and selecting [Remove Date Rule].
