Working with tasks
Task Settings
Only the title of the task is a required field. All other fields can be left empty. In order to work efficiently you should set a due date and assign the task to a member of the data room. If your task required certain steps, you can define subtasks. Attach files by using drag & drop or by clicking on "Add File".
It possible to set a reminder for a task by choosing a due date and selecting "Date & Time". The task must be assigned to the person, who should receive the reminders.

Adding features to a task
In the upper right corner of a task, there are several buttons that can be used to add features, such as subtasks, time tracking, files, or labels.
Subtasks
Multiple lists of subtasks can be created. Each list is named during the creation process to be able to identify the subtasks. Once the list has been created and entries have been added, subtasks can be sorted by drag and drop and moved between lists. In addition, sub-tasks can be assigned to individual persons, a due date can be added and files can be attached.
Time tracking
Instructions on how to use the time tracking can be found on the following page:

Files
Files can either be dragged or dropped on the task or can be uploaded by clicking on the files-button in the upper right corner. Various options are available, such as, e.g. uploading from the computer or attaching a file, which was already uploaded to the room.
Display Types
Your tasks can be displayed as a list, table or cards. Switch between these options by clicking on "Filter" in the search bar and selecting "Display" in the dropdown menu.
