Cases

Cases are the heart of NeosGoal. Cases represent the work done and work to be done by a Company or Tenant. Features of Cases:

Classification

Trackers defined in “Projects” section will appear as options when Creating a Case, so the members of the project know what kind of work is the case about.

Start/Due/Implementation dates

In order to have a defined timeline, NeosGoal allows you to set the dates that the case is expected to meet in terms of when is the user/team required to start working, finish the work and deliver it. If these dates are set, users will be able to quickly have graphical interpretation of the status of the project by just looking at the Gantt Chart

Assignee

A case can be assigned to an specific user or group of users.

Priority

A list customizable priorities is available.

Status

As the work done on a case progresses, a status system keeps track of the status of the case. This status represents how much of the job is done and whether it’s in progress, pending or closed.

Followers

Cases may have a list of followers, which simply are a set of users that will be notified, in addition the assignees, every time a case is updated.
