1. Checkbox Field Type

Easily track essential status indicators with our new checkbox field type, designed for quick “Yes/No” decisions. This new flexibility will help keep your team informed and on task whether you need to monitor quality checks like “QA Approved” or “Manager Reviewed” or track resource availability with options like “Resources Allocated. 

• Simplifies Decision-Making: Provides fast “Yes/No” indicators for making quicker, better-informed decisions.

2. File Field Type 

We know how crucial it is to keep all task-related documents in one place. Our new file field type allows you to add another set of files for better grouping across tasks, improving document organization and access within your project workflows. 

• Enhanced Task Organization: Use additional file fields to keep your tasks organized. 

• Centralized Document Management: Centralize task-relevant documents within your project workflows. 

3. Completed By Field Type 

Accountability is key to keeping any project moving. Our new Completed By field automatically logs who completed a task, providing clear completion records and enhancing team transparency.
