See the example given at [running autodoist](#running-autodoist) on how to run this mode. If the label does not exist yet in your Todoist, a possibility is given to automatically create it. Todoist Premium is required in order to use labels and to make this functionality possible.
## Useful filter tip
For a more GTD workfow, you can use Todoist filters to create a clean list of only actionable tasks using this filter. As a simple example, you could use the following:
`@next_action & #PROJECT_NAME`
## Sequential processing
If a project, section, or parentless task ends with `--`, both the parentless tasks and its sub-tasks will be treated as a priority queue and the most important will be labeled. Importance is determined by order in the list.

To give you more flexibility, multiple modes are provided:
- 1. Off
- 2. Checking main task regenerates all sub-tasks
- 3. Checking main task regenerates all sub-tasks only if all sub-tasks have been checked first
When this functionality is activated, it is possible to chose which mode is used as overall functionality for your Todoist. In addition you can define another mode by adding the labels `Regen_off`, `Regen_all`, or `Regen_all_if_completed` to your main task. These labels will automically be created for you, and overrule the overall functionality.
# 3. Postpone the end-of-day
You have a daily recurring task, but you're up working late and now it's past midnight. Todoist will automatically mark it overdue and when you check it, it moved to tomorrow. After a good nights rest you can't complete the task that day!
You have a daily recurring task, but you're up working late and now it's past midnight. When this happens Todoist will automatically mark it overdue, and when checked by you it moves to tomorrow. This means that after a good nights rest you can't complete the task that day!
By setting an alternative time for the end-of-day you can now finish your work after midnight and the new date will automatically be corrected for you. Todoist Premium is not required for this functionality.
