Adding and organizing tasks

Tasks are the day-to-day unit of work in avara. This article covers creating tasks and setting their details.

Add a task

1. Open Tasks in the sidebar.
2. Click New.
3. Enter a title. If you're viewing all projects, pick which project it belongs to; if you've filtered to one project, it's set for you.
4. Optionally choose a column, a priority (low, medium, high), and a due date.
5. Click Create task.

You can also quick-add a card directly on the board (see Using the board).

Task details

Every task has:

• Title — what needs doing.
• Column — where it sits on the board (this replaces a fixed status; see the board article).
• Priority — low, medium, or high.
• Due date — optional; shows up in the calendar and the "due soon" list on Overview.

Opening a task

Click any task — in any view — to open its dedicated page. There you can edit the title, description, column, priority, and due date. Changes save automatically. The task's toolbar shows when it was last edited and lets you delete it.

Filtering

Use the project filter in the breadcrumb to focus on a single project's tasks, or leave it on All Projects to see everything at once.
