What information should a teammate put in a task?
Write the expected result, assign an owner, and add the context someone needs to complete or continue the work. A task such as “update site” is hard to hand off without scope or a due date. The example includes notes and hours alongside tasks; keep client-sensitive details in the right project and avoid using notes as an unstructured catch-all.
How can a team use the cross-project overview?
Use it to spot deadlines, blocked work, or uneven workloads across clients, then open the project for the details behind an item. An overview should guide a conversation rather than replace project planning. The sample collects tasks from several projects in one view; decide which signals the team will review and who is responsible for resolving a flagged issue.
When should a team record hours on a task?
Agree whether hours track estimates, time spent, or billable work, because those meanings produce different records. Make the chosen unit and reporting period clear to everyone. The example stores hours with tasks and notes; if hours affect invoices or client reports, review entries before sharing them and explain how corrections are made.
