Huddle Tasks 2019 Update
Now, with our 2019 Tasks Update, you can create, view, edit, set deadlines and assign tasks right from file view.
With so many activities in Huddle centering on documents, you can view associated tasks for the document you are currently working on without having to visit the Tasks tab.
Any tasks you create in file view are immediately visible and editable in the tasks tab so everyone in the Workspace can see a complete list of all open tasks in a single location.
Create a task in a file
To create a task in a file, you first need to navigate to the file and then click on the “Tasks” menu. Click on the “ + ” sign to create a new task.
Basic details can be entered such as Title and Description. The task can be assigned to individuals or teams.
A Start date and a Due date can be selected if a deadline is required.
Once the task is created a notification will be displayed to state that the task is “saved” as shown below.
