Thanks for the suggestion here. While notifying task creators when a task is completed a great idea, it's not currently on our roadmap for the next couple of quarters. For that reason, I am switching the status of this idea to Not Currently Planned.
We'll re-evaluate this idea in the coming quarters and update the status accordingly if anything changes.
This would also be a big improvement for our team. Many of our tasks are made by one person on our team and assigned to another and we want to use the tasks feature to cut down on emails back and forth between the team checking in on every task assigned.
It would be very helpful to know when a task assigned to a co-worker is complete. For example, if a sales manager assigns a new lead to a sales rep for follow up the manager should get a notification when that lead is acted upon.
Once tasks are assigned to team members, the person who assigned the tasks should receive an update when they have been completed or progress has been made. This would avoid a lot of unnecessary back and forth follow up to see what has been completed and what is still pending.
I have setup automated tasks for different stages of our deals. It would be beneficial to have an email notification when a task has been completed or hasn't been touched after a given amount of time. It's unproductive to have to go through each deal and see what has and hasn't been accomplished. Additionally, if the feature could be added to any task that has been created it will improve productivity in our office.
Our sales operations team creates tasks for our sales team to perform - as they relate to the specific deals that the sales representatives are working on. However, the only way we have found to check to see if the tasks were completed is by manually checking. Is there a way you can develop a check box, or some other way, to let the task assigner know that the assigned task was completed?
An automated notification of completion should be sent to the creator who assigns the task initially. Otherwise the creator would need to conduct a list of tasks he/she has assigned as a reminder and then manually follow up. This creates ineffeciency.
Having a task tab listing the title and due date of assigned would also be valuable for the creator.
Our group's workaround is to reassign the task to the originator marked as complete, but this is still less efficient than it should be
Honestly, this seems like a simple request, Hubspot. I assign a task to be completed by my team. When they complete the task, for example, confirming an appointment, I need to be notified the task is completed. This is basic CRM. Please make this change.
This would take our HubSpot usage to the next level and would allow us to be more effective. Dear HubSpot Gods please make this happen so I can stop getting requests from my team for this feature.
Why isn't this feature done yet??? We desperately need this in place. Also when someone assigns a task to me there is no indication on whom it came from. Therefore I cannot ask for more information or follow up with the creator.
I totally agree! Its getting a little absurd - so much great functionality has been added recently I'm so disappointed this (seemingly) minor addition keeps getting ignored.
