Frequently Asked Questions#
How do I create a recurring task?
Currently, each task is created individually. For recurring activities, create a new task after completing the previous one, or plan multiple tasks in advance with different due dates.
Can I assign tasks to team members?
Tasks are linked to modules rather than specific team members. All team members with access to that module can see and update the task status.
What happens to overdue tasks?
Overdue tasks remain in the pending list until you mark them complete or update the due date. Review overdue tasks regularly to reschedule or complete them.
Can I see all tasks across modules?
Yes, from the home screen you can view all tasks across your farm, or filter by specific modules to see only relevant tasks.
