Add a task from the calendar

Click a day on the studio calendar to add a task there, with its project, phase and people.

Who can do this: admins and managersUpdated

Quick add creates a one-day task on the day you click. Use More options for anything longer.

Steps

  1. Open Calendar and click an empty part of a day. In Day view, click Add task.
  2. Type a Task name.
  3. To put it on a project, choose the Project, then a phase. The phase is required once a project is chosen.
  4. Change status and priority if needed.
  5. Under Assign to, add or remove people. You are selected to start with.
  6. Click Save, or press Enter.

What happens next

  • The task appears on that day.
  • Each assignee gets an in-app notification.
  • Billable starts at your studio's default.

Good to know

  • To set a date range, a description or a target time, click More options. Everything you typed carries over to the full task drawer.
  • New task in the toolbar opens the full drawer straight away.
  • Names can be up to 60 characters.
  • Choosing a project narrows Assign to to that project's team.
  • If the phase list shows Phases unavailable, you may not be on that project's team. Ask to be added, or leave the project unset.
  • A project with no phases can't be used here. Leave the project unset, or add phases first.
