Introduction

The “Organize tasks” feature orders tasks by the selected parameter. You can organize your tasks in ascending or descending order. Tasks are organized on each level of the hierarchy separately.

The new order overwrites any manual changes and is applicable to all users of a box.

IMPORTANT: The new task order is irreversible. You can apply a new order, but manual changes cannot be restored.

More sorting option

You can only use BigPicture built-in fields to organize tasks.

If a built-in field you want to sort by is missing, add it as a column to your current column view.

By what fields can I order tasks?

You can organize tasks only by BigPicture built-in fields. To organize tasks by a particular field, make sure that the corresponding column is added to the current column view.

Who is affected?
