Julep - About Tasks

The Tasks function in Julep allows users to assign fundraising calls, correspondence assignments, or other related tasks to one another as well as to a candidate. 

Creating and Editing Tasks within People Records 

1. To create or edit a task, first open the People record the task is to be assigned to. 

NOTE: For information on how to find and open a People record, please see Julep - People Search on the Helpdesk.

1. Click the Tasks panel to view a list of tasks for the record, and options to create or edit tasks. 

• To see a full list of tasks, including completed tasks, click the checkbox marked Include Completed.

2. Assign the task to yourself or another Julep user in the Scheduled For drop-down menu. The task will automatically assign you as the Scheduled By user, but you can select another user in the drop-down menu to update who assigned the task. 
3. Set the due date of the task by entering a date into the Due On field or by clicking the calendar icon. The Assigned On field will automatically use today’s date, but you can update that if needed.

You can update the Done On date and/or the Done By field if needed. Disable the Keep as History toggle if you do not wish to save a record of the task in the record’s history after it has been completed.   

**Please note: You can also use the Mass Append function to assign tasks to multiple records at once.
