What are task groups?

Task groups allow you to organise related tasks into logical collections, making event management simpler and more structured. For example, at a school circus you might create separate task groups for the BBQ, Bar, or Tuck Shop, with each group containing its own set of tasks.

How do I access task groups?

Task groups are linked to individual events. To manage them, open your event and select Task Groups from the event management menu.

How do I create a task group?

Once on the Task Groups management page, select Add Task Group from the Manage menu. 

You will then be asked to:

• Enter a task group name

• Select an organiser (this must be a registered customer)

• Set a sort order, which controls the display order of task groups

After entering the required information, click Add Task Group to save it.

How are tasks assigned to a task group?

When creating or editing a task, you can assign it to an existing task group. This helps keep related tasks organised under the same area or activity.

What can task group organisers see and do?

The assigned organiser (for example, Jane Brown) can view all volunteers who have signed up to help with tasks in their group. They can also communicate with these volunteers using the Volunteers report.
