Due Dates and Overdue Indicators

Due dates let you set deadlines on individual checklist items. WorkHub automatically highlights items that are past their due date so nothing slips through the cracks.

Setting a due date

  1. Hover over the item and click the calendar icon, or expand the item and click the due date field
  2. A date picker appears — select a date
  3. Optionally set a time (click the clock icon in the date picker)
  4. Click Apply to confirm

Editing or removing a due date

  • Click the existing due date on the item to reopen the date picker and change it
  • Click the āœ• next to the date to remove it

Overdue indicators

WorkHub compares each item's due date to the current date and time. When an item is overdue:

ElementChange
Due date labelTurns red and bold
Item rowGains a red left border
Checklist tab badgeShows a red count of overdue items

Overdue indicators are live — they update as time passes without any user action.

Completed items and due dates

When an item is marked complete, the overdue indicator is removed even if the due date has passed. The completion timestamp is recorded separately from the due date.
