Within Teamwork.com, you can create a task and assign it to multiple users on your project.

When creating a new task, click the Who should do this field and select the Add More option at the bottom of the dropdown.

In the Choose Assignees modal, you can then select multiple individuals to assign to the task. You can also assign the task to companies or teams by selecting the relevant checkboxes in the People or Teams tabs.

Click Update to apply the selected assignees to the task.

Once the assignees have been applied, you will see an additional checkbox below the assignee field allowing you to create separate tasks for each assignee.

Note: This option is only available when a task is first being created, not when existing tasks are being edited.

If you leave this option unchecked, a single task will be created with each selected individual, company, or team set as combined assignees.

When you enable the Create a task for each assignee option, separate tasks will be created for each individual, company, and team.

  • A task will be created for each company/team as a whole, not for each individual member of the company/team. If you want individuals in a company to have their own task, you will need to select them as individuals.

You can also use the @mention feature to assign users to a task. Once you type @, a dropdown will appear for you to choose from users and teams on your project. You can either use your mouse to select an assignee or use the arrow keys on your keyboard to highlight the relevant person and press Enter to apply.

Once you have mentioned multiple users, the Create a task for each assignee option will appear below the assignee field.
