Tasks

In RL6, TasksClosedA unit of work, such as a follow-up, review or request for information, which can be tied to a specific file. allows you to collaborate with or assign work to others, track requests made, and manage deadline oriented work with reminder notifications.

Tasks can be associated with files, follow-ups within files or they can be independent (i.e., not related to a specific file). The task can be configured to provide email notifications when its deadline is approaching and has one of the following statuses:

  • Assigned – the task is still open and the reminder date has not yet been reached.
  • Past Reminder – the task is still open and the original reminder date is either the current date or some time in the past.
  • Due Today – the task is still open and the deadline date is today.
  • Completed – the task has been marked as Completed.
  • Overdue – the task is still open and the deadline date has passed.

An administrator determines the extent of your interaction with tasks, allowing some users to create and manage them while limiting the abilities of others. The ultimate goal is to complete your tasks or reassign them when appropriate.
