Our goal has been to make Ahsuite Tasks easy to use yet versatile enough to do everything that 90% of us will ever need.
Task features include:
Labels
Attachments
Checklists
Comments
User tagging
Dependencies
Templates
Change history
Calendar view
The best part is that any Ahsuite user you invite to your team is already experienced in this tasks platform, so onboarding new collaborators is easy.
A Tasks widget on your homepage will notify you of tasks approaching their deadline or past due.
How to access your tasks
You can access your tasks in two ways:
The Tasks widget will take you to a To Do list of all tasks assigned to you with a status of Ready for Work or In Progress, grouped by client. The To Do page is where you can view the work you need to do across all your clients.
After selecting a client, the Tasks tab on the left sidebar menu will take you to all the tasks in that client account, grouped by status. On this page you can see the tasks assigned to any member of the team.
To narrow down your results, click the funnel icon to apply a filter.
How to create a task
To create a new task, just click the "+ Task" button on a client task page. You cannot add a task from the To Do list page.
A dialog box will open where you can give your task a name. Save that, and on the next screen you will add details like a description, labels, attachments, comments, or a checklist. You can also change the status or make the task a template.
Task statuses explained
Ahsuite Tasks can have the following statuses:
Ready for work
In Progress
On Hold
Pending
Done
Canceled
The difference between On Hold and Pending is that a Pending task will change to Ready for Work as soon as its dependency task is marked Done or Canceled.
Users can also archive or un-archive a task. The account owner can further delete a task once it is archived.
