Task Overview
Tasks are the fundamental building blocks of work organization in Adjera. Each task represents a discrete unit of work that can be tracked, assigned, and managed within your team. Whether you’re working on a small project or managing a complex workflow, tasks help you break down work into manageable pieces and keep everything organized.
Understanding Task Properties
Every task in Adjera has a set of properties that help you organize and manage your work effectively. Some properties are required to ensure proper task management, while others are optional and can be used to add more context and organization to your tasks.
Essential Properties
Every task must have these three properties to ensure proper tracking and management:
Title
: A clear, descriptive name that quickly communicates what needs to be doneStatus
: The current state of the task, helping you track progress (e.g., To Do, In Progress, Done)Team
: The team responsible for the task, ensuring proper ownership and collaboration
