Action Items and Tasks Import App

Do you have new action items from a customer meeting, a discussion or an email, that you need to record as a  structured, trackable and reportable work item in Clarizen?

With a few simple steps, you can add one or more tasks to Clarizen from a text file, excel table, HTML table or even bullet points, and assign them to a project, milestone, or task, or create a personal To Do task.

Importing Tasks

After the app is installed, to import new tasks:

    1. In the left-hand-side navigation menu, select Custom Actions > Quick Tasks Import.

    2. In the pop-up window, paste your text.

      Note: You can create more than one task at a time. Each line of text represents a new task.

    3. You can add tasks in one of the following ways depending on your project needs:
      • To associate tasks with a project, milestone, or task, from the Work Item pick list, select the desired work item. Turn on the Action items toggle if you do not want the new tasks to affect the project plan.

      • To associate tasks with a project, milestone, or task, from the Work Item pick list, select the desired work item. Turn off the Action items toggle to adjust the project plan.

      • To add a task as a personal To Do task, leave the Work Item field empty and enable the Action Items? toggle.
