Assignments are a tool for execution discipline: a manager sets a task on a document, appoints a controller and a deadline, and completion is formally confirmed. For collaborative project work EdoLine has a separate module: projects and tasks on Kanban boards.
Business processes
Task Assignment and Execution Control
Management instructions no longer get lost or slip past their deadlines. In EdoLine an assignment is issued as a resolution on a document or as a standalone instruction, with assignees, a controller and a due date. Assignees report in the system, the controller signs off, and anything overdue is visible immediately.
