Whats new in Metatask 1.0.3

Completing Tasks on behalf of other users

With the latest update, process owner can complete tasks on behalf of other users. A task is marked as completed by original assignee but you can still find information in a task history.

User interface improvements

As a part of this release, we did a lot of clean up work and introduced many changes in UI with the aim to make it even easier for our users and more consistent across different screens.

Switching between “My tasks” and “Delegated tasks” is now easily accessible on the very left side of the screen.

Switching between Active and Completed tasks is now on the right side for both Tasks and Processes.

Switching between “My processes” and “All processes” is now on the left side and works similar to switching between My and Delegated tasks.
“Start new process” button is now available on Processes screen.
