Tasks Management

- Require Comment for Due Date Change:
When enabled, users must provide a reason when changing a task’s due date. - Require Document to Complete Task:
When enabled, users must upload a relevant document before marking a task as completed. - Clone Projects with Relevant Attributes: A new Clone option is now available for projects. When cloning a project, the system will automatically display attribute options based on the project type.

- “Saved View” Option for Performance Goals: Previously, when creating a new goal in the PMS module, users could only associate Key Results (KRs). Now, the system also supports associating full Objectives (not just child objectives) with a goal.
When you click the Add button in the Goals page, you’ll now see options to associate Objectives, KPIs, and Initiatives. Once selected, they will be linked directly to the goal. - Create and Check-In Goals Directly from Performance Review: A new enhancement allows users to create and check in Goals directly from the review page during Self Assessment, enabling a more seamless and contextual performance review experience.
