Set Assignees

You can assign a task to team members so they will know what tasks they are responsible for. When the tasks get updated, the assignee will get notified as well. This way everyone is on the same page.

Single assignee

To assign a task to a member, click on the assignee icon, and select the member directly or use @ on the keyboard then select the member using the up/down arrow key.

You can also right-click on the selected task(s) and select Set assignees to assign the task(s).

Tip: By typing in an email address, you can also invite new members who are new to Quire.

Multiple assignees

Multiple assignees are only available in the Professional, Premium, Enterprise plans. More information can be found on our pricing page.

To assign a task to more than one member (aka multiple members), click on the assignee icon, and then the Add to assignees icon to toggle on the multiple assignees mode.

Assign tasks to members who are new to Quire

Click on the assignee icon, and type in the person’s email to invite him/her to the project. They will automatically join the project once they accept the email invitations.

Tip: You can also invite new members in the Project Member page.

For a group of members who are on Quire

You could assign a task to a group of members in a single time by using the External Team feature.
