How to add tasks to a project
Tasks are the individual pieces of work in a project, each with a status and, optionally, an owner and due date.
#When to use this
Use this to break a project into trackable steps the team can work through.
#Step by step
1
Open the project or Tasks
Go to the project or the Tasks area.
2
Add a task
Create a task with a clear title.
3
Set status and due date
Give it a status (to-do, in progress, blocked, done) and a due date if relevant.
4
Save
The task now appears in the task list.
#Expected result
What you should see
The task appears with its status and can be filtered, assigned, and updated as work progresses.
#Common mistakes
- Vague task titles that do not describe the work.
- Leaving tasks without due dates when timing matters.
#Troubleshooting
| If this happens | Try this |
|---|---|
| I cannot see my task | Check the status and assignee filters on the tasks list. |
#Best practices
- Write clear, action-oriented task titles.
- Keep statuses current so progress is accurate.
