Example Workflows

Assign Tasks

Assign tasks to specific teammates when other tasks are finished. They will receive a notification so they know when it's their time to work on a project.

Adjust Project Timelines

Reschedule projects if all tasks haven't been finished by their due dates. Ensure that projects are not scheduled until all steps have been completed.

Update Project Status

Automate your review process by having the status of your task change the status of your entire project.

Automatically change your project to schedule when the final task is finished.
