Tasks

Tasks allow an extra level of hierarchy within projects, enabling to categorize time entries further.

• Essentially, they work like sub-projects.

• To track time to tasks, the user simply has to attach it to a time entry like they would do for a project from the drop-down on their Home (time tracking) page.

• Tasks can be found under a tab towards the bottom of your project edit page:

• They can (but don't have to) be assigned to a specific team member.

• You can (but don't have to) set time estimates for separate tasks and review the progress of each category:

• Tasks are listed in the order that you created them, with the most recent one on the top.

• To change one task - edit it, mark it done (or undo) and delete it - hover over the task and click on the appropriate icon:

• You can delete or mark 'done' or 'not done' multiple tasks at once by ticking the boxes and clicking the buttons needed.

Completed / Done tasks

• Once you've completed a task, you can mark it 'Done' to remove it from your lists.

• This can be done one task at a time by hovering over it, or multiple tasks at a time by ticking the appropriate tasks and marking them together using the 'Done' button.

• Time entries recorded under your 'Done' task will still be available in Reports.

• When you first mark a task 'Done', it will appear crossed off in the list. After you Save or Refresh the page, the 'Done' tasks will disappear from the list. By default, only 'Active' tasks are shown:

• To view the 'Done' tasks again, choose 'All' from the Show section. 'Done' tasks will appear crossed off. You can re-activate the task in that list by hovering over it and choosing 'Undo', or using the tick boxes and 'Not done' button for multiple tasks together:

Tracking tasks with timer Classic

All the tasks will appear in the timer for you to track. They are displayed in gray and include the text "Task" in parentheses.

Clicking on the task will start a new time entry that belongs under that task. The current time entry view (on the picture below) also shows that this specific entry belongs to a certain task.

Currently you can not change the task setting after you have created a time entry. If you want to change under which task it belongs, you have to create a new time entry and delete the existing one. The other option is to edit the time entry on Toggl webpage.

Tracking tasks with timer Nano

When you have tasks under a project, Nano will show you these when you start typing a task description. On the picture below, you'll see the text "(Task)" behind a task. That tells you that this is a task. Select that task to track under that specific task.

When a time entry belongs to a task, you'll see a respective task name above the description field.

Tasks is a Pro plan feature only.
