How does Alfresco handle task management

[bcurry007]

I love the document features, the workflow options and forums but one thing i find missing is task management from a project perspective.

The ability to create a task or list of tasks, assign them to a person, set a deadline and track progress.

How is this done in Alfresco. i have just started poking around in it and can't seem to figure this out and documentation related to task tracking is missing.

have I overlooked some feature here? how do you handle this?

Thanks,

For this, we have an ad-hoc workflow.  It allows you to arbitrarily create a task, and assigning it to somebody.

in document details screen, click on "Start Advanced Workflow", and then select "Ad Hoc workflow". 

Hope this helps.
