Task workflow automations

Automation Manager helps Business users reduce repeated task-management work.

Trigger examples

  • Task created.
  • Task status changed.
  • Priority changed.
  • Start date or due date changed.
  • Start date or due date is today.
  • Task inactive for a set number of days.
  • Task custom field value changed.

Action examples

  • Change task status or priority.
  • Add a comment.
  • Add a timer.
  • Set followers or assignees.
  • Add a reminder.
  • Set a custom field.
  • Add or remove tags.
  • Change the due date.

Testing approach

  • Start with one simple automation.
  • Test it on sample tasks first.
  • Use clear automation names so staff understand what will happen.
  • Review automation results before using them across important projects.

Good to know: Automation should remove repeated admin work, not hide process problems.
