Task Views

The Tasks module offers three views to help you manage your work: List, Kanban, and Calendar. Each provides a different perspective on your tasks.

List View

The list view displays tasks in a data table with dynamic, configurable columns:

  • Title
  • Type (with icon)
  • Status
  • Priority (with icon)
  • Assignee
  • Due Date
  • Linked Entity
  • Estimated/Actual Time

Click the column settings icon to show or hide columns. For details on data table features, see Data Tables.

Kanban View

The Kanban view organizes tasks into columns by status:

  • Not Started | In Progress | Waiting | Deferred | Completed | Cancelled

Each task appears as a card showing:

  • Title
  • Type icon
  • Priority icon
  • Assignee avatar
  • Due date

Drag-and-Drop

Move tasks between statuses by dragging cards from one column to another.

tip

Use the Kanban view for daily task management. Start each day by reviewing your "Not Started" column and dragging tasks to "In Progress" as you begin working on them.

Calendar View

The calendar view displays tasks on a visual calendar grid, with three viewing modes:

Month View

Shows all tasks for the month, placed on their due dates. Click a day to see details or create a new task.

Week View

Shows tasks for the selected week with more detail per day.

Day View

Shows all tasks due on a single day with time slots.

Click to Create

In any calendar mode:

  1. Click an empty slot on a date.
  2. A quick-create task dialog opens with the date pre-filled.
  3. Enter the task details and save.

Switching Between Views

Use the view switcher buttons at the top of the Tasks page to toggle between List, Kanban, and Calendar views. Your preferred view is remembered for future visits.

Filtering

Apply filters to narrow down visible tasks:

  • Status — show specific statuses
  • Type — filter by task type (Call, Meeting, etc.)
  • Priority — filter by urgency level
  • Assignee — show tasks assigned to specific users
  • Due Date Range — filter by timeframe
  • Linked Entity — filter by linked module (Leads, Opportunities, etc.)
  • Show Completed toggle — include or exclude completed tasks
note

By default, completed and cancelled tasks are hidden to keep your view focused on active work. Toggle Show Completed to see them.

Subtasks

Tasks can have subtasks — smaller checklist items that break down the main task:

  • Subtasks appear as a checklist within the task card or detail view
  • Each subtask has a title and a completion checkbox
  • The parent task shows a progress indicator (e.g., "3/5 subtasks complete")
  • Completing all subtasks does not automatically complete the parent task

Subtasks are useful for complex tasks that involve multiple discrete steps — for example, a "Prepare Proposal" task might have subtasks for "Draft content," "Create pricing table," "Get manager review," and "Send to client."
