My Tasks
Learn about My Tasks in WaymakerOS.
My Tasks is your personal task view — a three-column kanban board that shows tasks assigned to you across all workspaces and taskboards in one place.
The My Tasks kanban
Three columns organise your personal workflow:
| Column | Colour | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| To Do | Gray | Tasks you haven't started |
| In Progress | Blue | Tasks you're actively working on |
| Done | Green | Completed tasks |
Drag tasks between columns to update your personal status.
Personal status vs taskboard status
My Tasks tracks your personal status independently from the taskboard status. This means:
- Moving a task to "In Progress" in My Tasks doesn't change its column on the original taskboard
- Your personal view reflects your progress, not the team's workflow
Syncing to the taskboard
When you mark a task as Done in My Tasks, Commander asks if you'd like to sync the status back to the original taskboard:
- Yes, update the taskboard — moves the task to the "Done" column on the taskboard
- No, keep it personal — only updates your My Tasks view
You can check "Remember this choice" to avoid being asked for the same workspace in future.
Task cards
Each task card shows:
- Title — the task name
- Workspace badge — which workspace and taskboard the task belongs to
- Progress bar — drag to update progress from 0–100%
- Due date — with a calendar icon
- Priority flag — visual indicator of task priority
- Traffic light — colour-coded progress (red, orange, yellow, green)
Updating progress
Hover over a task's progress bar to reveal the drag handle. Drag left or right to set a percentage. A tooltip shows the live value as you drag.
