How can I sort Planner tasks within buckets by due date automatically as I add them?

I use a Kaban-style board sorted into buckets for each project. Frustratingly, I cannot figure out how to sort the tasks within a bucket by due date automatically. Currently, if I want to see the most urgent items at the top and least urgent at the bottom, I need to manually drag the task down... which does not scroll down well, so I often need to drag & drop, drag & drop, drag & drop... until it arrives where I need it.

How could I keep this same Kaban-style board format (not list, grid, or schedule view) and have each column sorted by due date, even when I add a new task in?

    The ability to sort each bucked by drop down menu on each bucket is a must.

    Like a menu that says sort, and a sub menu to sort but Name, Creation Date, or Due date

    Fathia,

    I see your suggestion to try to make it work for what was asked, but being able to filter by date within each bucket, is what is needed. I discuss with my team by bucket, then touch on the top 2 items based on due dates. I waste time having to drag and drop. I would prefer to not have a drop and drop feature to instead have each bucket sorted by date.

    Just my opinion, but this answer was not the correct answer for what was asked for this forum.
