# Assigning Task

> * Assign Task

A Task can have either one of the three status:

1. **Unassigned** ➝ When the task has not been assigned to anyone
2. **Ongoing** ➝ When the task has been assigned to someone but not done yet
3. **Done** ➝ When the task has been done

A task can be assigned to multiple people; if a task is assigned to multiple people, they can all see it and its details, but only one person can actually do it and mark it as done.

## Assigning Each Task Individually

If you want to assign each task individually, select one or more assignees from the assignee column in the task.

## Assigning Many Tasks at Once

Multiple tasks can be assigned at once using the multiple selection boxes. Follow these steps to do so:

1. Check the select box on the tasks you want to assign
2. Click on **Action ➝ Assign**
3. Select the assignee(s) on the popup menu
4. Click on the submit button to assign multiple tasks at once

Similarly, multiple tasks can be **unassigned**, **moved**, or **deleted** from the **action** button.
