Task Management

Overview

The Task Management feature allows users to create, manage, and track tasks for discovered applications. Each task is linked to a discovered application, making it easy to see who is doing what, what needs attention, and what’s completed all in one place. It provides a clear way to assign responsibilities, organize work, and monitor progress without relying on external tools.

Purpose

This feature exists to help teams stay organized and work smarter. By connecting tasks to specific discovered applications, users can:

  • Know exactly what needs to be done.
  • See who is responsible for each task.
  • Track progress easily from start to finish.
  • Avoid missing important steps or tasks.

It’s a central task board for all discovered apps simple, clear, and efficient.

Why It Is Used

  • To assign tasks clearly to the right team members.
  • To track task status, priority, and deadlines without confusion.
  • To keep everything organized in one place, avoiding separate tools or messy spreadsheets.
  • To improve teamwork and collaboration by giving visibility to every task linked to discovered apps.
  • To automatically notify users about task creation, assignment, and weekly reminders.
