Complete an assigned task in Cube

When you’re assigned a task, you’re invited to collaborate in Cube as part of your company’s finance process. Whether you’re reviewing data, sharing updates, or approving inputs, this guide will help you complete your task with confidence.

We are currently rolling out this new feature. You'll see Workflows in your Cube soon!

What Is Cube?

Cube is a collaborative planning platform. It helps your company stay aligned on budgets, forecasts, and goals, without endless spreadsheets or back-and-forth updates. 

Workflows and tasks allow teams to collaborate on these processes. 

What to expect from a task

Each task is part of a workflow—a set of related tasks designed to keep a process moving forward.

Tasks assigned to you will include:

• The workflow this task is linked to and its owner.
• The due date.
• Additional instructions on what to do.
• An optional attachment for context (like a dashboard, report, or file).
• A status—either Draft, To Do, or Done.

You’ll only see tasks assigned to you and any workflow(s) they are a part of, while workflow owners can track the progress of all tasks and workflows.

Find assigned tasks

1. Log in to the Cube Workspace and click on Workflows in the left navigation.
2. You’ll see a list of workflows that include tasks assigned to you.
3. Click a workflow name to view the tasks assigned to you.
4. Click your task to open the full details and complete the task.

Review and complete a task

When you open a task, you’ll see:

• Instructions from the workflow owner.
• Any relevant attachments (these may be dashboards, reports, or files from the Cube library).
• The task status.
• A list of other pending tasks assigned to you to the left.

After you’ve completed the action requested:

1. Click the status dropdown in the upper-right corner of the task.
2. Click Done.
3. Your update will be saved, and the workflow owner will be notified. 
4. Continue to other tasks assigned to you. 

Reassign a task

If someone else is better suited to complete a task assigned to you:

1. Open the task and click Edit.
2. Choose a new assignee from the dropdown.
3. Save your changes.

You can only assign tasks to people who have access to Cube. Learn how to invite users.
