Project Settings: Task Types

Custom Task Types let you define and manage task categories that fit your specific workflow, rather than relying on default ones. They help organize tasks more effectively, improve reporting, and maintain consistency across projects. By creating custom types such as Bug, Feature, Design, or Testing, teams can easily classify and filter tasks, making progress tracking and analysis more efficient.
