We have repetitive projects for each order we receive, and have set up a project template in ZP with tasks and dependencies so we make sure all team members complete all required work on the order, in the sequence needed. Nearly all of these tasks are pretty brief, and can be done within a day.

Task Inline Editing Enhancement
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.
