Task Template

A Task Template defines the structure of tasks within a project. It acts as a reusable configuration for task creation and management.

Task Templates are used to predefine the set of tasks, fields, and structure available when a project is created.

A Task Template includes:

  • Predefined tasks

  • Task fields (default and custom fields)

  • Task structure and hierarchy

  • Field configuration for tasks

It helps in:

  • Standardizing task structure across projects

  • Reducing manual task creation

  • Ensuring consistency in task fields and data

  • Enabling quick project setup

When a Task Template is selected during project or project template creation:

  • Tasks are automatically loaded into the Task tab

  • Users can further add, edit, delete, or clone tasks

  • Tasks can also be imported using CSV

What you see on the screen

  • List of task templates with:

    • Number of tasks

    • Number of fields

    • Associated workflow

    • Actions (Edit, Clone, Delete)

Add Task Template

To create a task template, click the + Add option available at the top-right corner of the Project Settings page and select Add Task Template.

The Task Template creation is divided into two steps:

  • Input Fields – Configure task-level fields

  • Tasks – Define the task structure

Add Configuration Details

In this step, users define the fields available for tasks created with this template.

After configuring the input fields, click Next to proceed to the Tasks section, where you can define the task structure by adding tasks, organizing them into a hierarchy, and finalizing how tasks will be arranged and used within the template.

Add Task

Tasks define the execution steps within a project template. They can be added either manually or in bulk using a CSV file.

Tasks can be created individually to define specific activities within the project workflow. Each task includes basic details such as title and description, along with options to manage task entries.
