suggested improvements for tasks in Zoho Mail
I very much look forward to a users being able to see all their own, assigned, and any group tasks assigned or created by themselves for themselves, are all available in one single "MY TASKS" view. This would tremendously increase the users ability to view, plan, and action such tasks, regardless of who or where the tasks was assigned
(under personal or a group a member of) in one single place for the user. This by far is the biggest issue with corporate users being able to efficiently manage and action all tasks they are responsible to complete or action.
I have also put in suggestions/request for the following enhancements.
- Sort By = to add the ability to sort by several other options than just current. (Assigned To, Tags, and multiple of all sort types to narrow the view) and the same for Reports particularly useful for senior supervisors to track and hold accountable others under their supervision. So a supervisor could easily pull up all pending tasks for a single user, generate the report, email them same with notes to get them moving on open issues the supervisor sees within their pending tasks assigned.
- Comments = to be able to see and use when you open/edit the task, not just the overall task view
- When comments are made users assigned tasks see as popups and have to click on to view and make popup disappear. like a notification. I know emails can be generated to do similar but this creates a huge amount of email traffic for all users!
- % = be able to change/affect % amounts from the "All Tasks" view so users could quickly update multiple tasks from that screen just like the comments can.
- Status on "All Tasks" = being able to change/pick the status from the "All Tasks" view, so users could easily affect the status of a tasks while viewing all their tasks, similar to the comment feature on same view.
- ability to assign tags when creating or editing the task not just on the "All Tasks" view.
these are some more of my suggested changes to greatly improve the tasks features for corporate users.
