Some tasks are simple. A task like 'Buy bread' will be completed when the bread is bought. Others are a bit more complicated — for example, a task like 'Prepare a presentation' will be completed only when the author of the task decides that the presentation has been prepared. And sometimes the task cannot be completely finished (hint: in this case it is better to split it into several tasks). What is the right way to tackle your tasks?
  • Look carefully at the task description, attachments, checklists — maybe they have criteria for successful completion of the task.
  • If you use a check-list to divide a task into subtasks, then as soon as all the items on the check-list are done, you can mark the whole task as complete.
  • if you mark a task as complete, SAU will send an email and a push message to the task's initiator, and will also display the task on their dashboard.
  • If the task is reoccurring, the completion of the whole task means that it will no longer repeat.
The task's completion status can be reversed with a single click. Find a completed task in any view — in a ToDo list, on the Dashboard, through search, etc. Then just click on the check mark to the left of the task and it will become active again!
You can mark a task as completed from anywhere!
In every SAU view there is a circle to the left of the task name, by clicking on which the task will be marked as completed.
You can even complete the task from its card. To do that:
  1. Open the projects panel and select a project
  2. Find the task you want to change and click on it. The task card will open
  3. Click on the circle to the left of the task's name. A green check mark will appear

Recurring tasks are performed regularly — daily, weekly or every few days. But if a task needs to be marked as completely done (e.g. the task has become irrelevant or no longer needs to be tracked), it can be done via the task card. In this case, the recurring task will no longer appear on your personal dashboard or in the Tasks for Today newsletter. It will appear as completed in every view.
To complete a recurring task in its entirety:
  1. Open the Projects panel and select a project
  2. Find the task and click on it. The task card will open
  3. Scroll to the bottom of the task card and tap Mark fully completed
Completing a recurring task is no different from completing normal tasks — you can quickly do it in any view (not just in the tracker) or in the lists on your personal dashboard. To mark its completion, click on the circle to the left of the task and it will be marked as complete for the day!
