Use tasks, status, and comments in a project

Open the project and choose Running, Blocked, or Paused in the status field. For Blocked or Paused, the field What is it waiting on? appears. Add something like Waiting on client approval and confirm with Enter or by leaving the field.

Running

The project is being actively worked on. Open blocked tasks can still make it show up as stuck in the Daily Overview.

Blocked

The project is stuck and is treated accordingly in the Daily Overview.

Paused

The project is deliberately on hold. It isn't shown as stuck in the Daily Overview, even if blocked tasks remain.

Under Tasks, create a task with the project assigned automatically.

1. Enter the title in Add new task…
2. Confirm with Enter or the plus button.
3. The new task appears with the Todo status.
4. Click the task name to add details like assignee, priority, and due date.

Use All, Todo, Active, or Done above the task list. Active shows only tasks with the In progress status. Click the status icon in front of a task to choose Todo, In progress, Done, or Backlog. A task status doesn't change a manually set project status.

Open an existing task in the Tasks module and choose the project in its properties. Then check the task list in the project. The quick form inside the project, on the other hand, creates a new task.

Scroll to Comments, write your text, and send it with Enter. Use Shift+Enter to add a line break. Record decisions, questions, or handoffs concretely, for example Approved draft B; implementation can start.

Comments are visible to members with access to the project in the organization. New comments trigger a notification to the other organization members; the preview text includes an excerpt of the comment. Linking a client isn't an invitation for that client. You can remove your own comments via the trash icon and the Delete comment? confirmation.
