once

Dear all,
could you please help to verify this.......
1. The word "once" could be used only for the future task or could we use it for past tasks ?
Ex...
1. Once I come I'll do it. ( hope this would be okay)
2. Once I came I did it. ( do we have an alternative answer for this / I want to say.... As soon as I came I did it)

Thanks.
