Tasks
Tasks provide a structured way to plan and track work in Hubleto. A task describes what needs to be done, identifies the people responsible for completing and checking it, and keeps its progress visible from planning through completion.
Teams can use tasks for development work, internal assignments, customer-related requests, and other activities that need a clear owner and a measurable outcome. A task can contain a description of the scope of work, a priority, start and deadline dates, and links to related records. This helps colleagues understand the assignment without relying on a separate email thread.
Task properties
- Title and description: The title identifies the work item, while the description explains its scope and expected result. Hubleto can also assign an identifier to the task.
- Developer and tester: These fields identify the users responsible for carrying out the work and reviewing it. Their labels come from the task app; your organization can use them for the equivalent working and reviewing roles in its own process.
- Estimated effort and duration: Estimated work hours and estimated duration in days help the team plan capacity. These are separate from the deadline date.
- Start and deadline dates: The start date shows when work is expected to begin, while the deadline is the target date for completion. A deadline is a calendar date, not a measure of effort.
- Workflow step: The task's current workflow step shows its position in the process configured for your organization. The names of steps can differ between installations; In progress, Ready to test, and Deployed are examples, not fixed statuses in every task workflow.
- Completion and related work: A task can be marked closed, and its worked hours can reflect activities logged against it. Related to-do items help break a larger assignment into smaller actions.
Following progress
Review the workflow step, deadline, and worked hours as the task moves forward. If the scope or target date changes, update the task so that other team members have an accurate view of the plan. Closing a completed task makes it easier to distinguish finished work from items that still need attention.
