Tasks & subtasks in TaskFord
Learn the definitions of tasks and subtasks in TaskFord, and understand how they help organize and manage work within projects.
What is a task?
A task in TaskFord is a single, actionable unit of work that must be completed as part of a project. Each task has a unique key, such as PL-10, so you can easily track and reference it across views.
Tasks help teams organize work by clearly showing responsibilities, deadlines, and dependencies in one place. Depending on your workflow, a task can represent a deliverable, a feature request, a support ticket, or any other item that needs to be completed.
What is a subtask?
A subtask is a smaller piece of work within a larger task that helps you break down complex work into simple, manageable steps.
Subtasks make it easier to see what needs to be done, assign work to the right people, and track progress in detail. Each subtask can have its own assignee, due date, and status.
Use subtasks to stay organized, share responsibilities clearly, and make sure nothing gets overlooked.
