Appearance
Tasks
Tasks are sub-items inside a case. Use them to break down multi-step work, assign sub-actions to teammates, and track checklist-style progress.
Where to find them
- Sidebar → Tasks — global list of every task assigned to you (or visible based on role).
- Inside a Case → Tasks tab — tasks scoped to that case.
A Profile detail → Tasks tab (tasks attached to a profile, even across multiple cases) is on the Roadmap. Today, tasks always live under their parent case.
What a task has
- Type
- Description (markdown supported)
- Status: pending / in_progress / completed / canceled
- Assignee (one team member)
- Due date (optional)
- Position (ordering within a case)
- Visibility (internal vs. client-visible)
- Parent case (every task belongs to one)
Creating a task
From a case
Case → Tasks tab → + New Task → fill the form → save.
From the global Tasks view
+ New Task → pick a parent case → fill the form.
From a case template
When a case is opened from a template, the template's pre-defined tasks are automatically created.
Assigning tasks
A task can be assigned to one team member at a time. Reassign by editing the assignee field — the previous assignee gets an "unassigned" notification, the new assignee gets an "assigned" notification.
Bulk actions
Multi-select tasks in the list view to Mark all completed in one shot. Bulk re-assign and bulk status changes are on the Roadmap.
Task automation patterns
A few common patterns agencies use:
Case template with standard tasks
For a monthly local-SEO cycle, the case template might have:
- ☐ Pull last month's metrics
- ☐ Review review responses
- ☐ Draft 4 weekly posts
- ☐ Send for approval
- ☐ Publish on schedule
- ☐ Generate monthly report
- ☐ Send report to client
When the case opens, all 7 tasks exist. The team works through them.
Recurring per-month checklist
For ongoing retainers, the recurring case schedule re-creates the same task set every cycle. Consistency is the point.
Hand-offs
A "design done → ready for QA" hand-off: the designer marks "Design" completed; an automation marks "QA" in progress and emails the QA lead.
Due-date triage
The sidebar Tasks view defaults to grouping by due date proximity:
- Overdue (red)
- Today
- This week
- Next week
- No due date
This is the daily-driver view for most operators.
Notifications
Personal notification preferences (Settings → Personal Notifications) currently cover case-thread activity (new messages and @mentions). Task-specific per-event email triggers — "Task assigned to you," "Task due tomorrow," "Task overdue," "Task you created was completed" — are on the Roadmap under Org Owners. Today, task changes surface in the dashboard activity feed and the global Tasks list view.
