# Task and Todo lists

### Task lists within a ticket 

You can create effective task lists within a submitted ticket by utilizing custom fields within your form. 

1. Create a new custom field with the field type *Single-selection field*
2. In the field, add the following values: *Completed* and *Not completed*
3. Name the task to *Task 1*

Add as many Task-fields as required. You can also adjust the values based on your needs. 

Next, add the fields to the Form and make sure to enable the option *Only for Agents* on the field in the Form, making sure the fields are only visible to Agents 

These fields allow Agents to quickly assess the status of various tasks associated with a ticket. By configuring these fields on the Form and making them visible only to the agent, you ensure a streamlined workflow where agents can update and track task progress without cluttering the end-user view.

### Recurring tasks

Do you have recurring tasks that happen daily or weekly? Suptask allow you to manage these by utilizing the integration with Slack Workflows.

Slack Workflow will trigger the task on a set frequency (daily, weekly etc) and Suptask will pick up the task from the channel and turn it into a ticket. Creating a recurring ticket for your task based on the set frequency.
