Create a task with an owner and a deadline
You create a task under Tasks with a title, an owner and a deadline. The owner gets a notification, and you close the task with “Mark as done”.
- Applies to: Employee
- Applies to: Manager
- Applies to: Administrator
- Requires HSE or HR in the plan
In the portal: Tasks > “New task”
How to do it
- Go to Tasks and select “New task”.
- Write a “Title”. It must be filled in.
- Choose “Responsible”, “Deadline” and “Priority” (low, medium or high). You can also choose “Department” and “Project”.
- If the task is to repeat, choose “Repeat”: daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly or yearly. The task must then have a deadline.
- Select “Create task”.
What happens next?
The owner gets a notification with the deadline, and an email if that is turned on. The day before the deadline and the day after, they get a reminder. You can send an extra reminder with “Send reminder”. If the task repeats, the next one is created automatically with a new deadline when you select “Mark as done”.
Who can change tasks?
Administrators, and everyone with a job role other than Employee, can change all tasks. An employee can change their own tasks. Only administrators can delete.
Common problems
- “A recurring task must have a deadline.” Add a deadline.
- Tasks you did not create yourself. They can come from deviations, annual plans, safety inspections, absence requests or courses. The column “Comes from” shows the source.
- You only see some tasks. The default view is “My tasks”. Switch to “All open” or “Completed”.
