4. Select a task type using the Action dropdown, an Assignee, a Watcher, and a due-date using the date field next to due on.

   • Under the Action dropdown, pick one of the following options:

     • Free-text - user can enter any text to explain a task that needs completing
     • Submit forms -  tells the user they need to submit a form
     • Upload a form - tells the user they need to upload a form

     • Fill out a form - tells the user they need to fill out a form

💡: A watcher is a person who is notified of any changes to the task, they are also notified if the task is approaching its due date or if the task is overdue, but does not have the responsibility to complete the task.
