Edit a Task
Tasks can be edited at any point in time. You can make any changes, or if easier just archive the task and create a new one, refer to the article on how to delete a task.
Whenever an edit is made to a task, the change will only reflect in future periods. All past periods and tasks will remain as they are in order to preserve your audit log.
Tasks can be edited from two different locations, from the Settings, or from a month-end or daily checklist directly.
Editing a task from Settings
In Settings > Tasks, select the "..." icon to the right of the Task and choose Edit this will open up all the fields in a side window for you to edit and save.
