Task Management
Role-Specific Access
Universal Usage: The Task Management feature is accessible to users with all roles in vucavoid.
Watcher: In general, tasks can only be viewed by the owner of the task. Additionally, the owner can assign one or multiple watchers to the task. Every watcher will see the task in their task overview but will not be able to edit it. Once removed, the watcher will no longer see the task.
