Having just discovered this 'feature', I concur with the comments below. I thought workflow was meant to reduce the number of manual tasks, not increase them.
Yes! We set up automated birthday greetings, and now we have hundreds of incomplete actions that we have to clean up each month! Which wouldn't be a big deal except they show up as bright red "Past Due" actions on all the dashboards.
I totally agree with the proposal. I find it time consuming to go and do it manually by globally changing after all mass mailings. And it's totally unnecessary for the fundraisers to see these Actions as pending in their work centre.

Totally agree! It makes no sense to not have this as part of the Add Action task within a Workflow
