Tip of the week #24 - Help and receive help from your team members on tasks

Steve Jobs once quoted, "Great things are never done by one person. They're done by a team of people."

Every business thrives because of the combined effort of the people working there. In a typical work environment, there are several instances where you and your team would need the help of each other to tackle the tasks at hand.

Zoho TeamInbox provides you with features such as Response templates, Share Draft and Comments to help you and your team finish and close tasks efficiently.

• In cases where you have to type the same content repeatedly while composing an email, or when you want to send out quicker replies, compose and create a set of predefined templates that you and your team members can use when the need arises.
• Suppose, if you're drafting an email and you want to ensure what you composed is appropriate or verify if the attachments in the email consist of everything that has to be present, you can share the draft with your peers and get it reviewed before sending out.
• When you're handling a task in a thread and you want the assistance of your team members, you can @mention their name on the 'Comments' and they will be notified about it. You can then have internal discussions within the thread itself without having to switch to another application, thus ensuring the context of the task is not lost.

Try these productivity features and let us know how it helped you and your team complete tasks smoothly.

  The title just about sums it up. I have searched here and not found anything relevant, but If I overlooked, then please set me straight.  We have staff that do nothing but close tickets in desk all day long.

• Multiple columns in a form

  I am evaluating Zoho Creator. However, I am seeing almost no layout control on a form.  Just a basic 1 or 2 column format that is then imposed on the entire form.  That's not going to work for many, many real world cases. We need multiple columns per line, and we need each line/section to occupy a single column or be able to span the columns.   Someone please tell me that I'm missing something and the capability is actually there.
