InformationTitleWhat is Task Manager?Article DetailsArticle BodyWhat is Task Manager? Task Manager allows Managers to create single tasks for specific employees and shared tasks for teams. This way, Managers know exactly what was done during a shift and who completed it. Tasks can be performed once or repeat daily or weekly. Any task can be assigned to a specific employee, a department, a role, or shared across the entire team. Specific times tell employees when tasks can start and when they are due. How do I get access to Task Manager? Task Manager is available for $13/month per location as an add-on to your Homebase plan. You can learn about Task Manager and add it to your plan at https://app.joinhomebase.com/task_manager Managers can create and edit tasks on the Homebase Mobile app, or on the web in the Operations > Task Manager at https://app.joinhomebase.com/task_manager. Employees can complete tasks on their mobile device. Note: Task Manager is billed as a separate charge of $13/month. How does Task Manager work? Task Manager allows you to create repeating checklists, or one-off tasks, that can repeat daily, weekly, or not at all. You can assign tasks to a specific employee, by Role or Department, or to the entire team. Managers can create or edit tasks and task lists through the Operations > Task Manager. How do employees see tasks? Employees see tasks in their Homebase mobile dashboard. As soon as you assign a task to an employee, Role, or Department, the task will show up in the Homebase mobile dashboard for the relevant employee(s) after its start time. For example: if you created the task, "Wash dishes" to start at 8am, and you assigned it to the Dishwasher role, all Dishwasher employees on shift or clocked in during that time will see "Wash dishes" at the top of their Dashboard when they open the app. How will I know if my team's tasks are complete? Managers can see task progress - including completion - directly from their phone, on the Homebase app dashboard. Completed tasks appear in purple with a clear checkmark, including who checked it off and when. Incomplete tasks past their deadline appear with a "late" flag. Managers and employees will see a progress indicator showing what percentage of tasks have been completed for that day. Note: You can view up the last 30 days of task history in the Homebase Mobile app. What is the difference between a single task and task list? A single task is just that—one task that stands alone. A single task can repeat daily, weekly, or just once and can be assigned to a specific employee, department, role, or shared across the entire team. For example, you might create a single task and assign it to yourself (or another Manager) to build your Homebase schedule every Friday at 5pm. A task list is a group of tasks that can repeat daily, weekly, or just once. For example, you could create a daily task list for your closing shifts that need to be done each night, like sweeping, counting out the register, wiping down the tables, and taking out the trash. Can I add a note to a task? You can add a note to a task. An unlimited number of notes can be added to individual tasks and shared tasks. For example, if a task cannot be completed, an employee can add a note explaining why.Article Supplemental InfoURL NameTask-Manager-General-FAQs
