Uncheck all checkboxes when creating activities from templates

Consider the following:

You have an activity template with multiple tasks, where some of these tasks are assigned to several people. People have already checked their tasks as finished and some tasks are also marked as completed.

Now, when you create a new activity from that template, the following happens:

  1. Completed tasks are unchecked, as if they are not finished

  2. People who were assigned to a task and their task was checked in the template, will still see their task checked in the new activity as if it is already finished

Please consider to change this behavior, so that an activity created from a template unchecks everything. Regardless if it is a whole task or an individual person who checked their name.

    In my opinion, an activity in a template should never be marked as completed, as it is intended to serve as a reusable template. Therefore, any checkboxes for tasks assigned to individual people should also be reset in the template. Otherwise, newly created activities may incorrectly indicate that assigned users have already completed their tasks.
