# Feedback on Tasks ## post by Mallory_Chandler on May 22, 2025 A couple of feedback items on Tasks: 1. Allowing more than 1 person to be assigned to a task. We often work with a particular set of clients that often utilize their own administrative staff to assist with a task. 2. When in the Kanban View - It would be nice to see a number ticket on a card regarding if new comments have been added to the task that you have not reviewed yet. 3. Allow a setting that if a comment is added to a task, it auto flips to In Progress. 4. Clients tend to not mark a task done on their side so perhaps reviewing how that functionality looks on the client portal side. ## post by adam on May 22, 2025 Hi Mallory! Thank you for your feedback! This is very helpful for us as we determine which features and improvements to bring to the Tasks App next. #1 - To confirm, you’d like to assign a task to a set of clients _within_ a company? Assigning a task to a company is an effective way of assigning to multiple people at once, although there is a limitation to assigning to a set of people. #2 - We have heard this request before and plan on working in a way for you to know which Tasks have had comments left on them! #3 - I’d love to hear a bit more about your use case. Are these tasks assigned to members of your team, clients, companies, or a mix? Do the assignees ever comment on the task, perhaps for clarification, before they start the work? #4 - We are planning on making improvements to the client experience to make the action to mark as done more prominent. This is feedback we’ve heard from multiple customers. ## post by Mallory_Chandler on May 29, 2025 1. One of our companies has 30 members and we don’t want one task to be assigned to all - We essentially want to be able to assign a task to a priority resource and also assign to the company admin assistant that helps with the actual work. 2. Thanks! 3. Right now we are having to check notifications to see if tasks have had comments made to them or have been marked done. It would be nice to be able to pull open the tasks screen and see either a ticker number or some sort of indication if a task has had a change to it since you last accessed it. 4. Perfect! ## post by Mike_R on Jun 11, 2025 I’m very excited about Copilot, and excited about the engagement between the product team and the community! One piece of feedback on tasks: I would like to see the ability to have a set of tasks (or subtasks) be saved as a project template. For example, I want to set up a client on a given project type. I can select from a pre-defined set of projects I’ve already created, and all the tasks associated with that project are automatically assigned. It would be great to be able to set due dates for each task from a project start date or date in the future. For example: Project Start Date: July 1, 2025 - Task 1 Due Date: Project Start Date +7 - Task 2 Due Date: Project Start Date +9 or Project Due Date: Dec 1, 2025 - Task 1 Due Date: Project Due Date -7 - Task 2 Due Date: Project Due Date - 4 ## post by Veronique_Cadet on Jun 12, 2025 Hi Mike_R! Thank you so much for the feedback! This is a great request, and I have shared your request with the product team! Please let us know if you have any more feedback. We are always here to listen! Thanks! ## post by Maintenance_Matters on Jul 1, 2025 1. Allowing multiple users, internal and external, to be assigned to a task. 2. A page to hold tasks that belong to a client and visible to them, without actually having them be assigned to a client. We have a lot of tasks to be completed on behalf of the client, and want them to be able to see that we are working on it, but don’t need to assign the task to the client. My understanding is the only way they are able to see a task is if it’s assigned to that client or employee. Thanks, love having this feature, but with its current setup am still unable to use it for our company and clients. ## post by brittany on Jul 1, 2025 Hi Maintenance_Matters! Thanks so much for reaching out – appreciate you taking the time to provide context and your use case. It sounds like this would be a very impactful change for you and your team to help unlock usability. I’ve gone ahead and filed relevant feature requests with our team and shared your note with them directly as well. If you have any other requests or additional information to share please don’t hesitate to reach out – we love hearing from you! ## post by Jordan_Kulicki on Jul 16, 2025 It would be great if we could drag and drop to reorder subtasks. If a subtask is dependent on the completion of a different subtask, it would be nice to order them in that way. Currently, it seems like they are just ordered based on sequence of input. ## post by Veronique_Cadet on Jul 16, 2025 Hi Jordan_Kulicki! Thank you for reaching out and welcome to the community. We appreciate your feedback and I will share it with our product team. We will keep this request in mind as we continue to improve the Task app. Please let us know if you have anymore feedback or questions. We are here to help and listen! ## post by Danielle_Wright on Oct 13, 2025 [@adam](https://community.assembly.com/u/adam) has #4 been updated as yet? Also, are you all planning on rolling out a “projects” app soon? ## post by adam on Oct 13, 2025 Hi Danielle! Yes - we’ve made it much easier for clients to mark a task as complete by adding a dedicated button to the top right corner of the portal when viewing a task. What are you looking for in a “Projects” app? It would help to understand how you’re thinking about this app so I can share any relevant upcoming releases. ## post by Danielle_Wright on Oct 13, 2025 Hi Adam - people have been requesting a projects app since last year. Essentially something that would operate similar to other standard project management tools. ## post by adam on Oct 13, 2025 Hi [@Danielle_Wright](https://community.assembly.com/u/danielle_wright) - have you tried our [Tasks App](/content/guide/tasks-app/index.html) yet? It’s been popular with many of our customers who have requested a project management tool in the dashboard. Let me know what you think! ## post by Danielle_Wright on Oct 13, 2025 Hi [@adam](https://community.assembly.com/u/adam) I no longer have access to a trial account, but would love to see how the software works now with the Tasks app. ## post by brittany on Oct 13, 2025 Hey [@Danielle_Wright](https://community.assembly.com/u/danielle_wright) – I’ve gone ahead and extended another trial for your account so you can take a look at the Tasks app. Feel free to reach out to us here or at [support@assembly.com](mailto:support@assembly.com) if you run into any issues or have questions. We’d be happy to talk through things as you take a look! ## post by Danielle_Wright on Oct 13, 2025 Thanks, I took a look. The task feature is not robust enough to manage big projects. I was really hoping you all would have made more progress on this. I was hoping for a feature that was as robust/comparable to Asana, Smartsheet, etc. ## post by Dale_R_Wright_II on Oct 21, 2025 Hey [@marlon](https://community.assembly.com/u/marlon), long time no chat! Congrats on the rebrand! Is there a roadmap for subtasks being nested within the task template feature? - it's a pain to have to create the same subtasks for each task. ## post by marlon on Oct 22, 2025 Thanks! Task templates with sub tasks are coming in a few weeks! ## post by Nicole_Johnson on Feb 24 do we have a set time when we can get a notification when a task is assigned to us as an internal user, or if I assign a task to my team, can they get an email notification?
