Comment notifications

When you’re mentioned in a comment or someone comments on a task assigned to you:

Best practices for commenting

  • Keep comments concise and relevant to the task
  • Use @mentions to notify specific team members
  • Include links to relevant resources when applicable
  • Use formatting options for clarity (bold, italics, bullet points)
  • Reply directly to existing comments to maintain conversation threads

Tasks > Report blockers and improvement feedback

The comprehensive process improvement system allows users to report and resolve issues through blocker comments while template owners can gather feedback and implement suggested enhancements to optimize workflows over time.

Edit Processes > Edit tasks and process properties

Tallyfy’s process properties editing system enables users to modify active workflows by adjusting names deadlines owners tags folders and other settings through the Summary tab while maintaining process integrity.
