Tasks

A project's tasks as a board by status or department — create them with deadline, owner, priority, shooting day, scene, checklist and dependencies, move and complete them.

Tasks record what has to be done by whom and by when: the filming permit, the rehearsal, the order with the rental company. You see the tab with the read right for tasks; under Tasks in the sidebar the tasks of all projects stand together.

The board

1 Open, done and due today. 2 The columns by Status or by Department. 3 One card per task with deadline, owner and priority.

The columns by status are To do, In progress, done and Not needed. Drag a card into another column to change its status or its department; without a mouse you open the task and choose the status there. Overdue and High priority stand on the card.

New task

1 Title and description. 2 Responsible and Department. 3 Priority and Due on. 4 Shooting day and scene.

Responsible, departmentowner
Who does the task — a person, a department or both. Anyone who may not see tasks cannot be chosen as the person.
Prioritychoice
High, medium or low.
Due ondate
The deadline. After it the task stands as overdue.
Shooting day, scenelink
What the task belongs to. It then also stands in the shooting day and the scene; Open the shooting day and Open the scene jump there.

Save as a template also keeps the task as a template for later projects. The opened task adds:

Waiting for (dependencies)tasks
The task can only start once the chosen ones are done. If its deadline lies before a predecessor's, the app reports a Date conflict.
Checklistitems
Sub-steps to tick off, with the state "… of … done".

Tasks also come from other places: a client request, a delivery that is to be changed, or a post in the content plan. Then it says where they come from.
