Placker continues to innovate and streamline task management with its features. The Member Picker type of custom attribute is designed to enhance team collaboration and ensure that the right people are always informed about the tasks that matter most to them.
Setup
The steps of creating this type of attribute are quite similar to other custom attributes. Check the article above to see the creation of an attribute.
What is the Member Picker Custom Attribute?
The Member Picker custom attribute in Placker allows you to add a dropdown menu to your cards, where you can select a member.
Usage examples
This feature is versatile and can be used in various ways to improve task assignment and communication within your team.
One of them is to combine with other member pickers on the same card. For example, you can use one Member Picker to set the members responsible for executing a task, and another to assign someone to be informed or to approve the task. This ensures that all relevant parties are aware of their roles and responsibilities, facilitating smoother project execution.
Here are a few examples:
Task Assignment: Use the Member Picker to assign specific tasks to team members. This ensures that everyone knows what they are responsible for and can focus on their assigned duties.
Approval Processes: Designate a member to approve tasks using the Member Picker. This adds an extra layer of accountability and ensures that tasks are reviewed and approved by the appropriate person.
Informing Stakeholders: Use the Member Picker to keep key stakeholders informed about the progress of tasks. This is particularly useful for keeping clients or upper management in the loop without overwhelming them with unnecessary details.
Notification Settings
An enhancement to the Member Picker is the ability to set whether the picked member should be notified when they are selected. This feature is particularly useful for keeping team members informed about their assignments or approvals. By enabling notifications, you can ensure that no task goes unnoticed and that everyone stays in the loop.
We encourage you to explore this new feature and see how it can improve your project management processes. Stay tuned for more updates and enhancements from Placker!
