Tasks

Tasks represent units of work that employees are assigned to. They come from an external project management tool (Asana or Linear) and are synced into Nufinox automatically.

Where Tasks Come From

Tasks are not created manually. They are pulled in from Asana or Linear based on the project management connection configured in Settings. See Integrations for how to connect a project management tool.

When the connection is set up and client mappings are configured, Nufinox fetches tasks assigned to your team members from the connected workspaces or teams every day. You can also trigger an immediate sync for a specific task.

Viewing Tasks

The Tasks page lists all tasks. By default it shows only open tasks. Use the filter bar to change:

  • Assignee — filter by employee
  • Client — filter by client
  • Status — open or completed
  • Search — filter by title keyword

Click a task to see its details, including the linked work logs and the original source link in the external tool.

Task Fields

  • Title — the task name as it appears in the external tool
  • Client — determined by the project/team the task belongs to, based on your client mappings
  • Assignee — who the task is assigned to. Defaults to whoever it is assigned to in the external tool; can be overridden internally
  • Status — open or completed, synced from the external tool
  • Link — direct link to the task in Asana or Linear
  • Implementation link — for Linear tasks, if a pull request or merge request is attached, its URL is shown here
  • Description — the task description from the external tool

Syncing a Task

If a task's details are out of date (title changed, status updated, PR merged), you can sync it manually from the task detail page. This pulls the latest data from Asana or Linear for that specific task.

Logging Work on a Task

From the task detail page, you can see all work logs for that task. To log time against a task, create a work log and select the task. See Work Logs.
