How to set task owner to person who created the Project?

[stan255]

Our team will be creating Projects from Templates and in those Templates are tasks being assigned to the different team. However, there are certain tasks that can only be done by the Project Owner / the person creating the Project.

How do you assign tasks to the Project Owner?

Hi

Maybe I am missing something, but I haven't seen this functionality yet, which automatically changes from role to name. Alternatively, you can create a job role titled 'Project Owner' and assign it to the task in the template. Once the template is converted into a project, it becomes easier to replace the role of the project owner with a specific name.

It would be great to know if anyone in this group is familiar with or can share any functionality or option to accomplish this automatically.

The only way you can do this is with an automator, like Fusion.
