How to Create a New Task

A manager can create tasks for employees. These tasks can be assigned to one or more employees, depending on the project. Better still, a task can be assigned to a group of employees. This is very useful because a new employee joining the group will automatically be assigned the tasks already being undertaken by that group.

  1. From the Dashboard, go to “Projects & Tasks.”
