Share / Unshare a Task

Share a Task

Important

This option is available in the Oro application Enterprise Edition only.

When you share a task with a user, this user will be able to view this task even though they may have no permissions to do it otherwise. For example, according to your company settings, users can see only tasks assigned to them. However, you and your colleague work on the same project and you want them to see your tasks in order to avoid duplication of effort. In this case, you can share tasks with your colleague.

Depending on you application settings, you can share tasks with other users, other business units, or other organizations.

  1. In the main menu, navigate to Activities>Tasks.

  2. On the task list, click the required task.

    Alternatively, you can click the More Options menu at the end of the corresponding row and then click the View icon.

  3. On the task view page, click the Share button in the upper-right corner of the page.

  4. In the Share with field within the Sharing Settings dialog, start typing the name of the user / business unit / organization that you want to share this task with. When you see a suggestion in the drop-down list, click it to select.
