[FIXED] Wants: Complete a Daily Work Task not completing

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.91.205.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? I do not own: Batuu, Strangerville, My first pet, Toddler, Bowling night, Kids room, Movie hangout, Spooky, Cool kitchen, Carnival kit, Modern menswear kit, Industrial loft, Fashion street kit, Bust the dust kit, Throwback fit kit
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? If you have an ambitious Sim, the want on completing a daily task will appear - for me the task is to create an eco-upgrade part. The task is completed but not the want.
What happens when the bug occurs? Nothing.
What do you expect to see? For the want to be fulfilled and get the points.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

Edit By Crinrict: Added Tag to Title



    • “Complete a Daily Work Task” Want now completes properly after finishing a daily work task. Work work work.

    Fixed in Patch 1.109.185/1.98

    What is your current game version number? Idk
    What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Everything but a couple of kits
    Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Turn on your Xbox One Start a game in the sims 4 Have your sim be a perfectionist, overachiever, or both Wait for the whim "Complete a Work Task (From Being a Perfectionist OR From Being an Overachiever) to pop up Complete a Work Task Notice that the whim did not complete- this is the bug.
    What happens when the bug occurs? My sim completed her work task "Plan 10 Moves Ahead" by playing chess as a Sim in Black (level 10, top of career) in the military career and the whims did not go away. She had the whim to complete a Work Task from being a perfectionist and the whim complete a Work Task from being an overachiever and they never completed. She also got the whim as a Barista (she was and still is a young adult) but the Barista career does not have work tasks other than being level two Mixology when you're at level two in the career, and she had level three. That is another bug related to this whim I guess. Can't complete a Work Task when there's nothing to complete. No matter what career she is in and what work task it is, the whim to complete a Work Task (regardless of what trait the whim is linked to) does not complete.
    What do you expect to see? I expect the whim to go away and for the satisfaction points for the rewards store to be received after completing what a whim is asking for.
    Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? On console - never used.
    Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

    In this image you can see the two briefcase images for the "Complete a Work Task" whim are still present after completing the work task. You can see my sim still sitting at the chess table (exhausted and rather hungry) and the career tab is open so you can see "Plan 10 Moves Ahead" is complete. 

    Edit By Crinrict: Replaced Whims with wants.

  • Popping in to say this is still happening consistently across multiple playthroughs. Different sims, different lot, same career path and aspiration (I'm boring like that).

  • I have this bug. Ambitious sim in the Entertainer career, not getting wish fulfilled by completing the task to write/perform comedy routines. Had it pinned for several sim-days.

  • Playing on console. Overachiever sim. Complete work task wouldn’t fulfill. Second sim with this trait and that whim which wouldn’t complete. This sim is a musician and their job was to practice an instrument or write jokes. They fulfilled the task to complete but the Whim didn’t fulfill. 

  • @EeveeTinn Stumled upon the same bug today. Glad to have cheats extention mod so I could fulfill the want manually.

    This is still an issue. This Want simply does not fulfill. I play on console with a fully updated game and it’s still not fulfilling.

    On a related note, it also doesn’t work at all for the work from home careers.
