Adding Sections, Tasks, and Subtasks for Your To-Do List Reminders
Your to-do list in Workep will have one general section when you create it. You can rename this section as you please and click “Add Section” to create as many new sections as you want. Once you are happy with the sections you have, it’s time to start adding tasks to create your to-do list reminders.
To add a task, simply start typing in the box below a section heading where it says “Add Task” and hit enter to create a new to-do list reminder for yourself. Once you have created a new task, you can click on it to open up a window with all the details about the task.
In the expanded task window you can add a description, create subtasks, assign team members, add tags, set start and end dates, activate powerful in-app features such as the time tracker and budget tracker, attach or create files, and more.
When you add subtasks to one of your to-do list reminders, you can click on the two check marks the right-hand side of the task to expand the list of subtasks without opening up the whole task. Check off subtasks as you complete them until the whole task is done.
Share a To-Do List Task with External Collaborators
You can share your to-do list reminders with people outside of your organization through Workep’s powerful one-click external collaboration. Just open up a task and click on the “Share” icon from the expanded task window.
From there, choose whether collaborators will be able to view, edit, or comment on the task, then click “Turn Sharing On” to automatically copy the shareable link. Send the link to whoever you want to start collaborating right away!
