2. Assign Clear Ownership
-
Each task is assigned to specific team members, ensuring accountability. Managers can assign:
-
Single or multiple assignees
-
Reviewers for verification
-
Priority levels based on urgency
This structured assignment eliminates dependency on verbal instructions or scattered messages.
-
3. Attach Documents and SOPs
-
Important documents, SOPs, and reference files can be attached directly to the task. This ensures:
-
Easy access to required files
-
Standardized task execution
-
Reduced back-and-forth communication
Everything needed to complete the task stays within the task itself.
-
4. Set Deadlines and Priorities
-
Deadlines and priority levels help teams focus on what matters most. High-priority tasks get immediate attention, while routine work is managed systematically-leading to better workload planning.
5. Automated Notifications and Alerts
-
Once a task is created, CA CloudDesk automatically sends notifications to assignees. Alerts are triggered for:
-
New task assignments
-
Upcoming deadlines
-
Task updates
This removes the need for manual reminders and constant follow-ups.
