In this article, we look at how to Use Checklists within Tasks.
Enhance your task management and promote team collaboration by leveraging checklists within individual tasks.
Checklists allow teams to add a flat list of sub-items or steps within a higher-level task. This helps track all necessary actions required to complete the main task, increasing clarity and collaboration.

Manage a Task Checklist
Follow these steps to add a Checklist to a new or existing Task:
1. Navigate to the Tasks Section
- Navigate to the Tasks section of a specific entity or select the main Tasks on the left-hand side of the screen for a list across all entities
2. Select or Create a Task
- Select an Existing Task to view its details, or Create a New Task
- Enter the required Task details (e.g., Task Type, Due Date)
3. Add Checklist Items
- In the Task details panel, locate the Add checklist element at the bottom
- Click Add checklist
- Type the first step or sub-item for the Task
- Press Enter or click Add checklist again to add subsequent items
- Continue adding all required steps to the Checklist
Note: Checklists are administrative tools that help visualize steps. They do not enforce rules; a Task can still be marked as Confirmed even if all Checklist items are not completed. |
4. Complete Checklist Items
- As a sub-item or step is completed, click the Checkbox next to the item to mark it as complete.
