How Tasks Work
Tasks are an effective tool for tracking compliance progress and communicating between team members regarding the actions required for a case or policy.
Tip: Tasks can be used to design workflows for individual users or teams.
Tasks are created on the Case Overview tab and appear nested under the policy(ies) they are associated with.
From this view, users can see who each task is assigned to, whether it is flagged, overdue, completed, cancelled, or not yet started.
Tip: To see the due date of a task from this view, hover the cursor over the calendar icon and the task's due date will appear. The calendar icon will turn orange the day a task is due and red once the task is overdue.
Tasks can also be filtered on the Overview tab for easier workflow management.
