Tasks

The Tasks screen gives you a single place to manage every follow-up, review, and onboarding step in your book. Whether a task belongs to a specific client, a household, or no one in particular, you can create it, assign it, prioritize it, and mark it done without leaving Sherpa.

Tasks list showing open follow-ups with due date chips, priority, assignee, and linked client columns

In the main navigation, go to Clients, then click Activity and select Tasks.

A filter bar at the top of the page lets you narrow the list by any combination of:

  • Status — Open, Completed, or All
  • Assignee — Anyone on your team, or just yourself
  • Due — Overdue, Due today, Due this week, or No due date
  • Priority — Low, Normal, High, or Urgent
  • Linked client — Search by name to see only tasks tied to a specific contact

The table shows Title, Linked client or household, Assignee, Due date, Priority, and Status. Due dates that have already passed appear in a red “Overdue” badge; tasks due today show an amber “Today” badge.

  1. Click + New task in the top-right corner.
  2. Enter a Title (required) and an optional Description.
  3. Choose a Priority (Low, Normal, High, or Urgent) and an optional Due date and time.
  4. Select an Assignee from your team. Leaving this blank assigns the task to you.
  5. Optionally link the task to a client by searching under Linked client.
  6. Click Create task.

The new task appears in the list immediately.

  • To close out a task, click Complete on any open row.
  • If you need to revisit something already marked done, click Reopen on the completed row.

If your list is long, a Load more button appears at the bottom of the table. Click it to page in additional results without leaving the screen.
