How do I follow a task?

Goal

This article shows you how to follow tasks in Pacer so you can stay updated on their progress without being assigned to them.

Note: Following a task adds it to your “Following” filter and will soon enable email updates as the task changes.

Pre-Requisite

Before following tasks, it might be a good idea to set up a custom task view where you can call on a specific set of filters anytime. Follow the link below where we'll open this article in a new tab on your browser.

How to save a Custom Task View

How To
