What are Tasks?
Tasks are actions that are setup on cards that are to be completed. They can be reminders or actions that have to be taken. They can be scheduled to appear at a specific time or they can repeat as necessary. You can find tasks on all types of cards. You can setup one time tasks on individual cards, or you can setup tasks that will appear on every card created on a board. To see the tasks assigned to a card you need to open the card. The task section of the card is located on the top right side of the card screen.
