| + | ## '''Creating a team''' allows you to create multiple projects for that team and keeps your projects private to your team in the free version. To add a team click on the '''Add Team''' button below CDO, enter the names and the members and hit '''create team'''. |
| + | ## Projects created under CDO can be seen by all the branch members under the free version. To create a project click on the plus (+) sign beside the words CDO. You will have the chance to create one from a template ('''strongly recommend''') or create a blank project. |
| + | # You can '''assign tasks''': |
| + | ## to specific persons |
| + | ## add due dates |
| + | ## add sub tasks |
| + | ## comment on tasks and |
| + | ## monitor priority |
| + | # You can '''see all tasks assigned to you''' by clicking on '''My Tasks'''. '''Home''' will show you all the projects and teams you are on. |
