Why This Matters

Setting the right permissions keeps sensitive information secure while making sure your team can access exactly what they need to do their jobs.

Task subjects can be added to the database and within projects. When users create a task within a project, they can either select a task subject from the dropdown or create a custom subject for that specific task. Admins have control over who can add task subjects from the project task creation screen. If the permission is enabled for their role, users can add a task subject directly to the database while creating a task. Follow the steps below to enable permission for adding task subjects.
