Customize the Tasks Columns

In our company, we use the tasks feature to assign RFQ's/(Deals) to employees. But we do not have the option to customize/edit the columns. We would like to edit the titles and the number of steps in the tasks feature so, we can more accurately show the status of a task.

Hi HubSpot Community,

 

Thanks for some of the great suggestions for additional columns in Tasks. We're evaluating what some of the most common column types that could be added to the tasks table and will plan to update here if this is something we plan to add to the product. 

 

Thank you,
Scott

Hello,

 

We would like to have a view of account/contact properties in the task view. The main aim is to be able to better sort/organize/prioritize these tasks and create the task lists according to these properties (sortable and filterable).

 

Could you share with us the best practices?

We hope more custom properties can be added as task columns as sorting them by postcode/zipcode would be a massive help to our workflow and is primarily why we want to use this product.

It would be great to be able to filter the tasks tab in a record to filter out the completed tasks

Adding by request of HubSpot user - 

 

Please allow the primary company to be used as an alternative to the associated company in the column view.

These Idea is very helpful in terms of creating a new task and easy to check the task accurately, especially to add in the task bar "Lead Status".

Universal Request (i.e. prospecting calls) to add mobile property field to the editing feature so task bar can show multiple phone numbers with extensions (extensions preferrably viewable as a pop-up window once user hovers over phone number).  Purpose: All sales people who manage their todo prospecting calls for the day want the ability to view all phone numbers associated with contact(s).   Please advise if we can push this up the priority cue and when we can expect.  Thanks!

My team would like to be able to see the current lifecycle stage and pipeline so they can prioritize as needed.

At the moment, some custom properties can't be added as columns to the task view under Sales> Tasks and the columns that can be added are limited to certain default properties. I would be useful to be able to add any property besides of the ones currently availeble in the "edit columns" button

being able to add properties to tasks. For example on companies i can filter for "benefits Renewal" but i can't add that filter for tasks. I know this will help our company a lot and im sure it would help others hubspot users

Hi there, as someone that likes to champion many tasks, it is absolutely 110% necessary to be able to filter and sort by:

 

Company

Title

and a few Custom Contact and Company Properties

 

I see this was asked in 2017 - a full seven years ago. And it's in Review. Where are we on this?

Hi there - looks like this hasn't been addressed yet. And it's been in review since 2017.

 

Some filters for BDR workflows:

- Company name

- Company domain

- Contact Title

- Custom Properties (we use Contact Title Categories & Job Level)

 

The 3rd one and the 1st one are the easiest way to ensure BDR teams can prioritize their outreach.

Please allow me to either sort by Associated Company so at least tasks are grouped by company or to filter by company. Both options would be most helpful

Hey there.

It would be a game changer to be able to add associated objects properties as a colomn to tasks views.

 

For exemple, I would love to be able to show, in a new colomn of my tasks view, a custom property of the companies associated to my tasks.

 

Thumbs up if you agree!

 

Thanks!

Please add more contact and company based properties to the column edit in the task view to quickly and easily be able to filter through tasks!

Requesting Lead Status to be a Column option in Main Task page.

Yes!  It would be helpful to be able to add a column in the task view for the associated contact's 'contact owner', it would help us see if the task owner and associated contact owner are different.

I agree, specifically with a custom Company property we'd like to create for time zone. The task view has the option to add HubSpot's time zone property but this is based on IP address and we have issues with the way the dropdown displays. It's confusing and we'd like to create a custom property for time zone that pulls simple time zones (Central, Eastern, etc.) based on contact state. But the main reason we'd go through the effort to create this custom workflow and property would be to use in the task view - which is currently not an option.
