Creating and managing tasks

Whether you are managing a few tasks of your own or a large number of tasks that you will delegate and manage, Task101 is the right tool. At its core, Task101 is a powerful task management system. Start by learning how to create a task.

Viewing a task

When reviewing your tasks, you only get a glimpse of the

Contexts

As your task list gets larger you may find it necessary to organize things into groups or Contexts. Contexts allows you to specify whether a task is a work related, personal, school, or other group of task. By using Contexts you will be able to view only the tasks that apply at the moment. If you are at work for example, you may only want to work with tasks that are work related. Learn more click here.

Security

Your tasks are under your control. Mark a task as "Private" and only you can view it. It stays private. If you mark a task as "Shared" only those that you give permission may view it.  You may give others the ability to view tasks in a number of ways. If you wish to let a user view specific tasks, you can add that user as an "Observer" for that task. Once accepted, that user will see the task on their task list. This allows them to see what's going on with that task. The other option to allow a user to view your tasks is to let them see all of your shared tasks within a Context. This can be done from the "Manage Users" page. Remember, if you give a user permission to see the tasks within a context, they still can't view tasks marked "Private".

Contacts

If you wish to share or delegate tasks with other users, you must add those users to your Contact List. Once you have properly established your contacts, you may view their shared tasks and they may view yours. Again viewing tasks another users tasks is governed by whether a task is Shared or Private and whether the user is permitted.
