Tasks
To add a worker to the ticket, press “+” on the right from Tasks, choose the worker’s role and enter the first letters of their name or surname. Fill in the fee and set a suggested deadline.

*Maximum file size is 100 mb.
Each role has an assigned emoji which helps track the tickets’ progress: red circle stands for missed deadlines, green one — for completed tasks, no circle — for active tasks. Hover your cursor over the emoji and you’ll see the name and the role of the assigned worker.
A completed task can be marked with difficulty level which helps evaluating the time spent on the task:
All members of the ticket get a notification regarding completed tasks after the responsible person marks it finished.
