Using Task management requires administrative permissions. Learn more


Overview

When employees leave the organisation, it is crucial to reassign their tasks and responsibilities promptly to ensure they are completed in a timely manner.

This can be managed with the Task Management component.

Use this feature to transfer open tasks and assigned responsibilities from one user position to another.


What is the difference between tasks and responsibilities?

  • Tasks are the items that have been generated and are awaiting completion now or in the future.
  • Assigned responsibilities are assignments such as Document owner, Risk manager, Compliance approval officer etc. 

Note: In the platform, tasks and responsibilities are assigned to a user's position rather than their individual account. This means that when a user leaves the organisation and their position is taken over by another user, the new user automatically takes on the tasks and responsibilities associated with that position. This ensures a smooth transition and allows for seamless continuation of work within the organisation.
