Public/Private Tasks

The Public/Private Tasks feature allows a user to set a task to either Public (Shared) or Private.

Key Term:	Product Information Management (PIM): facilitates the central management and maintenance of an enterprise’s product data, content or any related information.
Description:	Tasks are action events created within an article that are intended for a user. In the system, the tasks contain a description of what action should be done. This feature allows a user to set a task to either Public or Private: A Public task is shared among users. A Private task is only for the user who created that task (and other users granted with permission to access the task).

Application:	An administrator can set a task to remind another user of an action that needs to be done on a particular day.

The user assigned to the task can check the things to be completed and their relevant dates using the calendar view.
