Create a New Task
The easiest and fastest way to create a new task is by clicking one of the + buttons located in each of your project sections.
Working with Checklists
Tasks in MeisterTask can contain checklists. Checklists are perfect for any task which requires multiple to-do’s or action items: simply mark off completed actions to keep track of your team’s progress.
Add Attachments to Tasks
Attach files to any task to quickly share relevant documents with your project collaborators. Attachments can then be favorited or shared, making it easier for everyone to access the information they need to work together effectively.
Set Due Dates
You can set a specific due date and time for any individual task. Use due dates in tandem with Agenda, the My Tasks widget and Timeline to always stay on top of your deadlines.
Assign Tasks and Add Task Watchers
Assign tasks to other collaborators in your project to delegate responsibilities. Task assignees receive notifications whenever changes are made to a task, and their user avatar is prominently displayed on the task tile.
Watch (follow) a task to stay updated and receive notifications whenever changes are made to a task.
Add Comments to Communicate with Others
The comments section at the bottom of the task window offers a place for team members to communicate with each other and share information on task progress.
Add comments to exchange ideas, link to attachments, and alert other team members to important information by mentioning them.
Complete and Archive tasks
Once you’ve finished working on a task, you can mark it as Completed to cross it off and keep track of your progress. Completed tasks can then be Archived and removed from your project board.
