[LS] Romance Consultant: Tasks on Computer greyed out

The Romantic Counselor has a variety of computer tasks to complete, whether they're assigned or not. If you complete any one of them, you cannot do any other the tasks, as there will be a pop up that says "There is no remaining task to complete until after the next time your Sim goes to work." I have not done any of the tasks for days, and when I choose work from home I cannot complete the assignment (see the attached picture). I've selected work from home for the past few days of work in game, and I can't complete the assignment, so I keep losing performance progress. Do I have to go into work to reset the work from home tasks? Why does it not do it automatically? 

(I'm playing the Very Veggie challenge, that's why my home looks like this lol)

  • Could you please provide the following information

    -  Are you using mods/cc in your game ? Please remove them and test without them if you do.
    -  What platform are you playing ?

  • Hi, I found a similar issue in the archived section but not in active bugs so am posting.

    Two of my sims working from home are in the romance career sector. One is a Matchmaker and the other is a Relationship Counsellor. Their WFH tasks are greyed out despite not having completed them yet. Tried restarting the game, resetting both sims, deleting the computer and buying a new one etc etc... Not sure how to remedy this. I have never used any mods etc... only have the base game and packs from EA.

    Please help! I'm trying to get them promoted to the next career level.

  • In the "Romance Consultant" career, when selecting the "Work from Home" option, it's impossible to complete computer-related tasks. The screenshot shows an example with the "Write a Love Advice Column" action, which cannot be performed. A pop-up message says: "You can continue completing tasks after the next workday ends." However, attending work in person doesn’t resolve the issue. The same problem occurs with other work-from-home tasks requiring a computer. No mods are installed.

    Expansions Used:

    • Cupid’s Arrow
    • Life and Death
    • Fun Together
    • Cats & Dogs
    • Seasons

    Platform: PC (Steam & EA App)

  • Getting the same issues now.

    First time she got the assignment to write love column it worked, anything after first time doesn't work. I do have mccc installed alongside other autonomy related mods, but since other posters stated that they don't have mods installed I do believe it's not mod related. Honestly don't know what could be the issue causing this, sim is working from home cause she has an infant to take care of but if this issue persists she's gonna have to switch careers.

    I'll try to provide as many details as possible, sim lives in Newcrest, issue started when she lived in Willow Creek and persisted even after moving to a new world and getting a new pc (base game pc, the all-in-one powerful computer) Sim still have the laptop (the one from B&H pack) on which the issues started.
    Platform playing on is pc for my part.

    when choosing the WFH option in the romance consultant career sometimes the computer option tasks are greyed out and says something like… “there are no tasks to complete till your next work day” or whatever. No mods or cc. Makes me not be able to complete the work day

  • Same. I was able to "Run the Emergency Romance Hotline" the first time it was assigned. Now it's greyed out and says "There are no tasks to complete until after the next time your Sim goes to work." This seems like an unnecessary check in the first place
