Managing Your Tasks
Managing Your Tasks
The Tasks module is where you manage individual work items to ensure your projects stay on schedule. This section provides a centralized view of all to-dos across your various initiatives.
Managing Your Tasks
The Tasks page allows you to organize and filter your workload to stay focused on high-priority items:
Important: Before creating tasks, you first need to create a project. All tasks must be assigned to an existing project to ensure they are properly tracked and organized.

Create Task Button: Click the brown button to save the task to your project.
Note: Clear visual indicators are present for all mandatory fields. If any required fields are missing, the form validation feedback will explicitly show you what needs to be completed instead of letting the window freeze or hang in a loading state.
