ClickUp tips & tricks: Assigned to me

The My Tasks page features a canvas that allows you to see relevant content by adding specific cards. The Assigned to me card is especially useful, but you may want to modify the view and sort them by due date to make tracking subtasks easier.

 To view a single list of all tasks and subtasks by order of due date:
  • Click Group By and delete the current grouping selection.
  • Click Subtasks and select As separate tasks from the drop-down.
  • Click on the Due Date column and select Sort.
Step-by-step instructions can be found in ClickUp Tips & Tricks.

ClickUp Tips & Tricks: Subtasks or Checklists?

When organizing a task into smaller steps, you can utilize subtasks or checklists. But what’s the difference between them? Subtasks share the same fields, functionality, and behaviors as standard tasks. They include standard and custom fields, appear in your “Personal List," and generate notifications. They are great for detailed coordination and tracking with collaborators.

Checklists are designed for smaller, sequential steps that are completed in a short period of time. They are especially helpful when documenting many detailed steps and delegating a task to staff unfamiliar with a process. You may add a Checklist in the “Checklists” section of the task. Checklists are also created automatically when you assign a comment to a user.
