Create Task & Task Kanban

From this page, you can create and manage all tasks within a project. The Tasks page is the primary workspace for tracking work across different stages of the project lifecycle. It supports multiple views and provides powerful filtering, bulk action, and task management capabilities.

To navigate here, go to Project->Task(s). Use the project selector in the top right to switch between projects.

Creating a Task:

Click the Create button to open the Create Task form.

Title:

Enter the title of the task. This is the only mandatory field — a task created with only a title will be placed in the UnAssigned stage until more details are added.

Module:

Select the module this task belongs to. A task must have a module assigned to move to the Open stage.

Platform:

Select the platform for this task. Along with Module, this field is required for a task to move out of the UnAssigned stage.

Review Required:

Enable this checkbox if this task requires a review before it can be progressed further.

Priority:

Select the priority level for this task — for example, Medium or High.

Select the test case groups and individual test cases to be linked to this task. The linked test cases will be displayed with their Test Case Name, Validation Criteria, and Expected Behavior. Click the + button to add multiple test case group and test case combinations.

Recurrence:

Click to set this todo as a recurring task:

  • Recurring Frequency — select how often this todo recurs

  • Create next recurrence after closing the current task — when enabled, the next occurrence of this todo is only created once the current one is closed
  • Click Done to save the recurrence configuration.

Select whether this task is Billable or Non-Billable.

Tag(s):

Add tags to categorize or label this task.

Views:

The Tasks page supports multiple views, accessible from the view icons in the top right:

Kanban View (Stage Wise):

The default view. Tasks are displayed as cards organized in columns by their current stage — for example, Open, Active, On Hold, QA, and Closed. Each stage column shows the count of tasks in that stage. The Unassigned column on the left shows tasks that have only a title and no module or platform assigned yet — these tasks automatically move to the Open stage once a module and platform are added.

Tasks can be dragged and dropped between stages to update their status. Each task card displays the task title, task ID, task type, date range, module, platform, estimated time, logged time, assignee avatar, and current status badge. Quick action icons are available at the bottom of each card for Priority, Settings, Tags, Assignee, Edit, and Delete.

Person Kanban View:

This view organizes tasks by assigned person rather than by stage. Each column represents a team member, showing all tasks assigned to them. This view is only visible to users who have the Can Assign permission enabled in the project's user configuration.

Classic View:

The Classic View displays tasks grouped by their module in a structured, collapsible list. Each module appears as a header row showing the module name, associated project, and end date. Tasks under each module can be expanded or collapsed using the arrow on the left. A + button next to each module header allows you to quickly add a new task directly under that module. Tasks without a module are grouped under a separate Task(s) Without Module section.

Plain View:

The Plain View displays all tasks in a flat, ungrouped list without any module grouping. All tasks across all modules appear in a single continuous list, making it easier to get a consolidated view of all tasks at once. The Bulk Move button becomes available in this view, allowing you to select one or more tasks and move them to a different project and module in a single action.

Toolbar Actions:

Import Tasks:

Tasks can be imported in bulk using a spreadsheet file. Click the Import icon from the toolbar to open the Import Task dialog.

Browse or drag and drop your file into the upload area. Only .xlsx and .xls file formats are supported. A Download Sample Template link is available to help you structure your file correctly before importing.

Bulk Move:

Select multiple tasks and move them to a different project and module in one action. The Move Task dialog allows you to select the target Project and Module, with an option to Update billing type according to target project. This feature is only available in the Plain View.

Bulk Action:

Deletes tasks in bulk, streamlining the management process. In Kanban and Person Kanban, this Bulk Action has an additional feature of Clear All Tasks from this Project. It removes all tasks from the currently selected project.
