Any movement on this? It's very frustrating restricting tasks in jobs and having to do them one by one and search for them (please add the code numbers to the task name!!!!!). There's a higher potential of error which happens often when a code is missed in the initial add. Would love to have a grouping option for codes so if it's a roofing job we add a group of the roofing codes, if it's waterproofing, we add a group of the roofing codes instead of one by one. Would absolutely be thrilled to see this done this year.

Has there been any development on this? We are limiting tasks on jobs now so our field crews don't have to scroll through all options available. Having to search for each to add them in has created many possibilities of error on items missed or incorrect items added. Would really love the possibility of creating default task groups to set up and select from!!

I really hope this is something being worked on! We're switching to 'Allow only' for tasks to reduce the error of selecting incorrect tasks on projects, but occasionally I miss a code or two in setup and have a frustrated field tech sending me messages to add their task to the list. Additionally, really want to be able to see the task code # in the setup vs just the text name.

This is exactly the type of suggestion I was going to add as well. It would be great to set tasks to a pre-set group, so during job creation, we could simply select a group that would populate in the task control. I would like the group of tasks to be able to be pulled in, but perhaps all the individual tasks would show up so additional codes could be added or some from the group could be removed if not needed for that particular job. Tasks would need to be able to be added to multiple group types (i.e. we do sheet metal work on different types of jobs, so it would need to be able to be part of group 1 for roofing, group 2 for walls, group 3 for service work).

It would save so much time if I was able to select multiple tasks at once, on some jobs i need to select over 200 task for employees to clock in against and selecting 1 and then having to re-enter the task drop down to select another is very time consuming.

I agree, lots of tasks - It is VERY ANNOYING, to add each task 1 by 1 to a Job. I want to grab a group. I can grab "Field" group containing all tasks and assign it the the job. Instead 40 tasks later. I have hundreds I only want the Job, which I split into two Field and Shop, only to see their tasks.

It would be great to be able to set up job types, so that we could check a box and it would pre-populate certain tasks/employees/etc. We have diverse jobs and most jobs don't need all the tasks, just a select few. The problem is that you can't copy and paste a task list to the job, so you have to sit there and either scroll+click or type in each task number. Then if you forget to add one and someone doesn't tip you off, all the time is incorrectly allocated and you have to go back and fix it all. What it comes down to is there needs to be a better way to get certain jobs certain tasks so employees don't even have the option to clock in under the wrong task, and since certain types of jobs use the same tasks, it makes sense to be able to classify them.

It would be great if you could create task groupings (for example, we have duplicate tasks, but they are used on different jobs from the original tasks, but we'd have to add every single (50+) task in jobs in order to restrict them for each job). If we had groupings for tasks, we could put all of a particular type of task in one group so we'd have to add just the group rather than the individual task in the "allow only" within the job. The employees wouldn't even necessarily need to see the groups, just the admins for ease of setting up jobs and not having to correct tasks so much because employees clock into the wrong version of their task.

Have the ability to create lists of Employees and Tasks that can be pasted into Jobs that have the same crew and tasks assigned. We have many Jobs that have the same people and tasks and entering them over and over is time consuming, when using "Allow Only"
