Understanding a portal task

Tasks are the action items your event team assigns to you in the portal. Each task in your task list shows the same set of details.

A portal task row labelled with task name, required marker, description, due date, and status

  • Task name — what you’re being asked to do (for example, “Read T&C”).
  • Required — a red asterisk means the task is required.
  • Task description — short instructions from your event team.
  • Task due date — the date and time the task is due, in the event’s time zone. Session dates and times shown in the portal (including a session’s Starts At and Ends At) use the event’s time zone as well, not your browser’s.
  • Task status — Incomplete or Complete.

When you’re finished, click Mark as Complete. Click Done to leave the task view without changing the status.
