Hii.

I would like to ask for this feature request: To have the figure of roles to be assigned to tasks instead of people (Holacracy).

Is it already possible, if so, I would love to know how to implement this! T

haanks :wink:

Ability to assign a task to a Role, not an individual user

This is something I too would like to see as I don’t believe it’s currently possible. It would also be good to be able to create roles after a project has been created as sometimes these change or new ones are identified as a project gets going. At present, I think you can only create roles at the onset.

@George_McDougall Is this what you mean? Fill project roles after project creation

@Andressa3 How would you work with this in practice?

  • Would you leave it not assigned to a specific person?
  • Or is this a form of Assign multiple assignees on one task ? (That last one is not going to happen…)
  • Is there any reason against using a custom field to indicate the Assigned role?

That way, when an individual leaves the team and is replaced, they can inherit recurring tasks or even projects owned by that Role, rather than individually reassigning things.
