Task List View
The Task List View is a centralized location where users can view, filter, and manage tasks across their team or project. This view offers powerful tools, including bulk editing and customizable columns (widgets), to streamline task management.
Start and Stop Working
The Start/Stop Working feature in the task list helps users manage active work sessions for tasks. It ensures that users can track when they begin or pause work on any task directly from the task list view.
Location in Task List
- The Start/Stop button is visible in the Action column of each task row
- It appears as:
- ▶ Play Button → Start working
- ⏸ Pause Button → Stop/Pause working
Functionality
Start Working (▶ Play Button)
