A screenshot of a computer

Description automatically generated

Each choice offers the User a way to Set, Schedule, Assign & Remind assignees of your choice regarding Task’s that need to be completed. You must first create a Task, connect this Task to a Trigger and then assign a user to this Task, which you can specify to your needs. Your assignee will also be notified with an email when they have a reminder, or a task trigger has activated the task they need to complete. To the top-right of the screen is a +TASK which can be clicked on at any time to create a new Task Template that you will assign a Task Trigger to

Clicking on the +Template will allow you to create a new Task Template.

The Title is what your assignee will know the Task to be, for example “I-9 Form Completion”. The Description is to provide more specific details as to why this Task was triggered, for example, ‘An Employee has submitted their I-9 form & it needs approval”. The Time Before Task Starts and Time To Complete can be set in a timeframe of Days/Weeks. This can be set so the assignee knows how long they have to complete the task once the setting
for the task starting has been reached. They will also receive reminders that the task has not been completed (similar to a Form Due Date Enforcement, but more specified to a person or task instead of a form.)

Enable Alerts is a setting that will inform the assignee they have been assigned this task as well as any other notifications pertinent to the Task (such as the amount of time before it needs to be resolved etc.) Then, Save your Task and pull up the Task Triggers.
