📌 What Are Tasks? 

Tasks are individual action items that help you manage the work that needs to get done. They can live on their own or be linked to a specific project or contact.

Use tasks to:

  • ​​Break down client deliverables
  • Track internal workflows
  • Break down client deliverables
  • Assign responsibilities
  • Attach files and due dates
  • View everything from one place​​​

      🛠 Creating Tasks  

      You can create tasks in four ways:

      • ​From the Tasks Page → Click Create Task
      • Inside a Project → Tasks are tied to that specific project
      • From the Calendar → Choose a date and create a task directly
      • Using the + New Button → Quick entry from anywhere​

      Task Setup Includes: 

      • Task Name (required): Give it a clear, actionable title
      • Project: Optional link to a specific project
      • Description: Add context or instructions
      • Start & Due Dates: Schedule the work
      • Status: To Do, In Progress, Blocked, Completed
      • Priority: High, Regular, or Low
      • Attachments: Upload supporting files
      • People: Assign tasks to clients or team members​

      👥 Task Assignment & People Tab 

      You can assign a task to:
      • Yourself
      • A team member
      • A linked contact (great for client tasks)

      Just go to the People tab and search for the person you want to add.

                  🧾 Task Views & Organization 

                  Switch between multiple views to manage your workflow:
                  • Table View – Traditional list with sortable columns
                  • Kanban Board – Drag-and-drop across status columns
                  • Calendar View – View tasks by due date, and create or edit tasks directly from the calendar
                  • Project View – See tasks inside each project​

                  Each task shows status, priority, due date, and links to its project/contact.

                    ✏️ Managing Tasks

                    • Click on any task to edit its details
                    • Update status as work progresses
                    • Drag tasks across columns in Kanban view
                    • Use filters, columns, and grouping to stay organized
                    • Attach documents and leave internal notes or comments​

                    📈 Best Practices 

                    💡 Use clear task titles – like “Send Final Invoice” or “Design Moodboard”
                    💡 Assign due dates to stay on track
                    💡 Group related tasks under the same project
                    💡 Break big tasks into smaller, actionable steps
                    💡 Use comments to track updates, approvals, or decisions
                    💡 Attach reference files or links directly to the task
