Answers to common questions about who sees projects, task stages, scheduling and deleted projects.

Short answers to what people ask most about projects and tasks.
Who can see a project?
Everyone in your company sees every project. Your Personal tasks are the exception: only you see them.
Why isn't a task in my to-do list?
It shows there once it is assigned to you and in To do. Assigning alone doesn't add it. A task waiting for another task, or for the subtask above it, stays out until that is done.
Why can't I choose In progress from the status menu?
In progress is set by the calendar: a task in To do with a block under way or ahead. Drag it onto your calendar in My tasks, or choose Start.
Can I put someone else's task on my calendar?
No. Only a task's assignee can schedule it, on their own calendar, while it is in To do.
Can a deleted project be brought back?
Yes, for 30 days. An admin opens Trash on the Projects page and restores it with its tasks, files and time.
Can a task have more than one assignee?
No. Give it subtasks instead, one for each person.
Still stuck?
Ask the people who build it.
