BetterBoard’s task function has been developed with a focus on creating overview, structure and effective follow-up in board work. This feature gives board members and associates a practical tool to organise, assign, and follow up on tasks – regardless of whether they arise from specific meetings or arise continually between meetings.
The function is fully integrated into the board portal and can be used both across portals and directly in the meeting agenda.
If you have both Quick Actions and the task function as part of your board portal, you can create tasks directly from the meeting agenda with a single click. The task is registered in the global task overview, and is located as a task under the agenda item and “My tasks for the meeting”, and it will be clearly stated in the minutes that a task has been created for this item. The task itself also includes expanded information about, among other things, who created the task, when, deadline, whether it is associated with a meeting, whether it was created via a meeting, etc.
What is the task function?
The task function is a central tool in BetterBoard’s board portal that makes it possible to create and assign tasks directly in the portal. Each task can be assigned to one or more people and include both a deadline and a description.
Tasks can be linked to specific meetings or created independently as part of daily board work. When a task is created in connection with a meeting, the deadline is initially set to the meeting time – although it can be adjusted manually.
All tasks are collected in a global task overview, which provides an overview of both your own and other tasks across all the portals to which you are connected. This way, it is easy to maintain an overview of the board’s overall progress and responsibilities.
How does the task function work?
Tasks are created simply by specifying a title, description and deadline. They can be linked to a specific meeting or created independently with a date selected directly in the calendar. After creation, the tasks appear in the global task overview, which is accessed from the BetterBoard front page via the task icon in the upper right corner.
Here, the user gains access to a complete list of his own tasks – as well as the board’s other tasks – across all portals. If a task exceeds its deadline, this is automatically highlighted by displaying the task text in red.
Each task has a comment field where members can add notes, questions and updates. This creates transparency and makes it possible to follow the process of solving the task in one place. BetterBoard also sends automatic reminders so that tasks are not overlooked.
With the Quick Actions feature, tasks can now be created directly on agenda items during meeting planning. These tasks automatically appear in the meeting agenda under the “Tasks created on agenda item” section and are automatically recorded in the minutes when they are created.
Assigned tasks also appear under “My tasks for the meeting”, which gives the individual board member or meeting participant a clear overview of what needs to be followed up – both before and after the meeting.
Why choose BetterBoard?
With BetterBoard, you get a comprehensive board portal that supports all board work – from holding meetings and document sharing to follow-up and execution. The task function is a central element in this and ensures that decisions and agreements do not disappear into minutes or emails, but are translated into concrete actions with clear deadlines and responsible persons. This makes BetterBoard’s board portal a valuable tool for any board that wants structure, transparency and effective follow-up in its work.
