Tasks & Observer Users menu

A Tasks menu has been added starting from the version 8.5.

info

By default, when you open the Tasks menu list view, you will find all the tasks assigned to you.

This task list is editable. You can easily add tasks and manage them separately from projects.

Filters: apply filters to make it easier to navigate through all tasks.

My observed tasks: you can choose to view observed tasks. Observed tasks include tasks in which you are also designated as an observer.

info

Being an observer on a task does not necessarily mean it has been assigned to you.

When you apply a filter to the task list, you can choose from:

  1. My tasks: these are tasks that are assigned to the user.

  2. My observed tasks: these are tasks created by the user themselves and tracked by the user. This list includes tasks that are in progress.

  3. Tasks assigned to others: these are tasks created by the user and assigned to other users.

  4. All my tasks: these are all tasks that have been created by the user (regardless of who these tasks are assigned to). This list can be considered as the history of all tasks that have been created by the user.

  5. All my observed tasks: these are all tasks that the user has created and that are tracked by the user. Closed tasks are included.

Access: Project Management → Projects → Tasks
