A Task is a piece of work on a Project File that needs to be done by the assigned Collaborator.

A Task is automatically created when a Project Owner assigns a Collaborator to a Step. The Task to be done by a Collaborator is determined by the Task role. Learn more about each Task role here: Task Roles.

If you are a registered user, you can access your assigned Tasks from the Home page. The My Tasks table contains available and upcoming Tasks from Live Project in your Organization.
