Objectifs :
This document aims to provide a comprehensive overview of task management features, specifically focusing on assigning tasks to others, tracking progress, and receiving updates. It is designed to enhance understanding of how to effectively utilize these features in a collaborative environment.
Chapitres :
-
Introduction to Task Management
Tasks are essential tools for tracking responsibilities and deadlines. They help individuals manage their workload efficiently. This section discusses how tasks can be assigned to others, ensuring that work continues even when you are unable to complete it yourself. -
Assigning Tasks to Others
To assign a task to someone else, follow these steps: 1. Open the task you wish to assign. 2. Click on the 'Assign Task' button located in the ribbon. 3. A field labeled 'To' will appear, where you can enter the names of the individuals you want to assign the task to. Once a task is assigned, you relinquish ownership of it, meaning you will not receive reminders for its completion. -
New Options After Assigning Tasks
When you assign a task, two new options become available: - **Keep an Updated Copy**: This option allows you to maintain a copy of the task in your list. As the assignee updates the task's progress, you will be informed of any changes. - **Receive Status Reports**: You can opt to receive a status report once the task is completed, keeping you in the loop regarding its final outcome. -
Adding Details to Assigned Tasks
When assigning a task, it is important to provide any necessary details that could assist the assignee in completing the task. After entering the relevant information, simply click on 'Send'. The task will then appear in your list, marked with a representative icon indicating that it has been assigned to someone else. -
Conclusion
Understanding how to assign tasks and track their progress is crucial for effective collaboration. By utilizing the features discussed, you can ensure that tasks are completed efficiently, even when you are unable to do so yourself. This not only enhances productivity but also fosters teamwork.
FAQ :
What is the purpose of tasks in project management?
Tasks help individuals and teams keep track of their responsibilities and ensure that work is completed efficiently. They provide a clear outline of what needs to be done.
How do I assign a task to someone else?
To assign a task, open the task and click on the 'Assign Task' button in the ribbon. Enter the names of the people you want to assign the task to, and then click 'Send'.
What happens when I assign a task?
When you assign a task, you are no longer the owner, and the reminder option is not available. However, you can choose to keep an updated copy of the task and receive a status report upon completion.
Can I still track the progress of an assigned task?
Yes, if you choose to keep an updated copy of the task, you will be informed of any progress made by the assignee.
What is a status report?
