Select Add to create this task and view it in the tasks modal.

Assign To*

Tasks can be assigned to Partners or your team members on your Advertiser account. When you select a Partner account, you can use the second drop-down to select a specific member for that Partner account, or leave it blank to assign the task to anyone with access to the Partner account.

Task Type*

Use the drop-down menu to select the task type. If check-square-solid__2_.svg [Checked box] Task requires approval is selected, you'll need to manually approve it when the assignee marks it as Complete. If this option isn't selected, a task will automatically be Approved once the assignee marks the task as Completed.

Summary*

Include a short summary of what this task is—think of it as the task’s title.

Description

Add a description for this task that includes all relevant details. Select Attach to attach files. Supported files are JPG, PNG, DOC, MP4, MOV, PPT, SAZ, XLSX, ZIP with no size limits.

Due

Use the calendar modal to choose a due date and time of day. Select check-square-solid__2_.svg [Checked box] Mark as urgent to signify to the assignee that this task is considered urgent.

Action a task item

You can action tasks that have been assigned to you via the tasks modal, or on the Tasks screen.

Note

If you're attaching a file, you must also submit a comment (e.g., "See attached").

Open the Tasks modal, then select a task to view its details. Use the Write a comment… text box at the bottom to add a comment. Previous comments will appear as a dialogue within the task view.

Reassign tasks

You can also update the task's assignee if you have the Manage Tasks account permission.

Task notifications

When you are assigned a task, or an event occurs on a task you've created (or assigned to), you can configure Impact to send you a notification. Learn more about account notification settings.
