On the Task List page, you have the option to add two types of tasks.
You also have an option to add task list to help you categorise yours tasks and essays.
Add Task List: Create a list to organize related tasks and essays. When creating a task or essay, you can assign it to a task list so it appears under that list.
Add Tasks: This allows you to create a regular task with fields for Title, Category, Status (Important Marker), Due Date, Visibility control, Description, and the ability to upload Attachments.
Add Essay: This enables you to create a special Essay-Task that includes all the features of a normal task, but it also comes with the additional capability of version control. With version control, each document uploaded to the Essay-Task is assigned a label that automatically increments with every new upload. You can access past versions through the Show more button.
Difference between tasks and essays
In Cialfo, Tasks and Essay Tasks may look similar in the workflow, but they are used for different purposes.
The main difference is the type of work being assigned.
A Task is used for a general action
An Essay Task is used for essay or writing work
You can identify whether you are creating a Task or an Essay from the label at the top of the creation panel. The same label also appears on the Tasks page, making it easy to distinguish between tasks and essays. For eg, in the screenshot below, you are creating a task.
As highlighted here, you are assigning an Essay.
