Tasks

Mothernode CRM records provide the ability to enter, dispatch and manage tasks related to a record, or the user can also enter a general task from the Global Tasks List. Record types supporting Tasks include Customers, Contacts, Leads/Opportunities and Mothernode transactions.

Tasks can be input and managed from the Tasks Tab within a record or from the Global Task List function on your Productivity menu:

Tasks Tab:

Global Tasks List:

Task Priority will appear in red so that high-priority tasks are highly visible.

Creating Tasks

Click New in the Tasks tab or Global Tasks List to enter a new task, or click Edit to manage an existing task:

The left side of the Task record provides all basic settings including Task name, Assigned-to, Due Date/Time, related Company name, Priority, Status and Description.
