Managing tasks and issues

Inside a project, create tasks, assign people, set dates and status, comment, and attach files.

Open the task list

Open a project. The first tab is the task list (table). Other tabs include Board, Gantt, Cost, Dashboard, Files, Workload, Members, Wiki, and Trash.

Create a task

• Click the create-task control, type a title, and press Enter (or save the form).
• Set assignee, due date, priority, labels, parent task, and status when you need more than a title.

Update work

Change status from the row or the task detail panel. Filter, search, and customize columns from the action bar above the table.

Open a task to add description, comments, attachments, and time logs. Assignees are notified of relevant updates.

Sub-tasks and hierarchy

Nest tasks when a deliverable splits into smaller jobs. Parent progress can reflect child work depending on how you update statuses.

Task trash

Delete a task to send it to the project's task Trash tab (owners and users with delete permission). Restore from there, or purge permanently.

Limits

Free plans cap active tasks. Archive or complete work, or upgrade, if you cannot create more.
