Task and Project numbering
Zoho Projects now generates a unique number for each project, task, and issue added. The auto-generated ID is a combination of a prefix and a number which is assigned by Zoho Projects.
The unique IDs for projects, tasks, and issues will be useful to track, identify, and search easily. You can modify the settings to enable or disable the Project and Task IDs.

on how to modify Prefix & ID settings for projects and tasks. Issue IDs cannot be disabled, only its prefix can be changed (tasks and issues have the same prefix).
What is Task & Issue prefix?
Tasks and Issues will have a unique ID with a prefix . The ID will have a Task & Issue Prefix (alphanumeric) appended with -T & -I for task & issues respectively and a unique number that is automatically assigned to the tasks and issues as you add them to a project.
For example, if your Task & Issue Prefix is DC, then your task ID will be DC-T1 and issue ID will be DC-I1.
How to edit Task & Issue Prefix?
You can edit the auto-generated Task & Issue prefix in the Edit Project section. However, the IDs will remain constant with unique numbering, only the prefix can be edited. Learn more
Note: In case you delete a task or an issue, the Unique ID will also be deleted. This ID will not be repeated for subsequent tasks or issues.
How are the unique IDs useful?
-> You can use unique task & issue IDs to search within your project.
-> You can # mention the task/issue ID to include it in the status in project feed and also in comments anywhere across projects.

Four types of task dependencies
"Nothing is particularly hard if you divide it into small jobs." - Henry Ford Projects, small or large, are driven by simple work units called tasks. Monitoring standalone tasks might look simple but as the workflow becomes elaborate, tasks may start relying on one another. In project management, this relationship between tasks is termed as "Task Dependencies". Dependency between tasks ariseTip: How to print the Gantt View
Though we move from the traditional project management system (using papers) to an online project management system, we still prefer to have a printed copy of the activities/tasks that are to be done in the project. This way, we can carry the to-do lists with us for the meetings and refer when we are offline. The print option, available at the right side of the page, allows the users to print the project information across all the modules. However, this option failed to print all the tasks & milestonesTask and Project numbering

Hi All, Today, we have made an enhancement in task inline editing. In 4.0, task edit is moved in a single screen in a pop-up. We designed this in-order to make the task edit across the product to be the same. Let it be in Feeds, Tasks & My Tasks tab, Calendar & My Calendar tab, a click on the task title will open the popup and user can edit the values. Customers pointed us the inline editing was very useful to them & how much they miss that in 4.0. Based on the feedback, we have rolled out this enhancement.Blueprint in Zoho Projects
Often, we stumble upon tasks having the same status workflow. Repetitive task processes are tedious to handle, right? That’s why we have introduced Blueprint for task automation. Blueprint is a tool to organize tasks and automate them based on the workflow you design and the criteria you define. How do I associate tasks with a blueprint?
