Task List
Roadmap for Project Teams and Information Point for Project Leaders
Task List is an essential component of resource management in Epicflow software and a powerful instrument for project teams.
It’s a catalog of assignments ordered by priority across all the project portfolio, which is calculated automatically by machine learning algorithms based on all project-related data in real time.
Make your resources focused on the most important parts of your projects.
Eliminate bad multi-tasking by providing your people with their daily "to-do lists".
Ensure task data transparency by gathering all related information about assignments in one place.
Main Functions
of a Task List
Project planning gets significantly simplified with the Epicflow multi-project management software: priorities between tasks are automatically calculated according to the resource dependency between projects and are recalculated in real time if any changes occur.
In such a way, a project/resource/portfolio manager and the team are always in the know of what goes first and what comes next in the flow.
Personal Tab
This tab is your daily to-do list with additional information about your assignments.
The tasks are divided into categories here:
- In progress
- On hold
- Ready to start
- Upcoming
- Recently completed
- Not ready to start
- Not estimated
You can check a parent path for each task, a project an assignment belongs to, its status, and remaining hours.
Meeting View Tab
This is a customized view where you can select users for a meeting to discuss their progress, current and upcoming workload. Here, all tasks are divided into categories, too. You can switch between users in the list to examine each member’s assignments and progress.
Timeline view
Timeline view presents each task’s time frames in the Pipeline that show the period when the task should be done (starting from the earliest date and ending with the latest date possible).
Full Timeline view
Here you can check not only time frames but also all task-related data (projects, assignments, hours) right in the Pipeline above the timeline bars.
Full Timeline + Load Analysis on the Future Load graph
In this view, you can explore time frames and essential task-related data and check the load of your resources. You can open a Future Load graph just in the Group tab and check the workload of your resources. Load analysis also provides an opportunity to examine the tasks and projects that are overloading your resources. Here you can also enable Inactive Analysis to predict the load inactive projects will put on your resources upon their initiation.
Full Timeline + Future Load graph + Bottleneck Analysis
With this view, you can see task execution time frames, all related data, examine the load, detect bottlenecks, and eliminate them. You can sort resources by overload/underload, which makes it easy to detect bottlenecks and resolve them. All this in the single view for your maximum convenience and efficiency.

Task Card
In any tab of the Task List page, you can choose a task and go to a Task Card to see even more details about it: stage, sprint, release, competences, summary, budget, description, tags, comments, baseline data, and more.
Resource Allocation Advisor
From this page, you can enable a Resource Allocation Advisor, which is part of Competence Management feature of Epicflow, to find the best resource for the task based on the required competence levels.
