Clear responsibility
Choose the other person in a direct conversation, or one or more participants in a group. Each assignee has their own acceptance and progress state, so a shared assignment still has identifiable owners.
Tasks from chat · Kanban
Tasks from chat. Kanban for your team.
“Have this ready by Friday” is easy to lose among messages. In GoMsg, assign a task within the conversation, choose the people and deadline, then track it in a list or on a board. The task stays connected to the chat, so asking for clarification does not mean searching through another tool.

Tasks and kanban
Turn a discussion into a clear assignment
Your team agrees to update its website. Create “Prepare the first screen” in the chat, choose the designer, set a deadline and request acceptance. Once the assignee accepts, their response appears on the task. You can follow subsequent stages on a project board.
Visible acceptance
Request confirmation when agreement matters. An assignee can accept the task or decline with an explanation. This helps distinguish an assignment you sent from work someone has agreed to take on.
Your own stages
Create, rename and reorder columns to match your process. Drag columns on a wide screen or use management actions on a narrow one. Start with a few useful stages rather than a complicated workflow.
Keep the context
Return to the original chat, add comments and link supporting materials. A plan, report or note can explain the requested work and its outcome without copying the entire conversation into the task.

What you can configure
List and board for different moments
Use a list to find a particular task and a board to see the stages of work. These are ways of viewing tasks, not separate copies that need to be kept in sync manually.
- Filter by assignee and state
- Set custom columns and their order
- Use comments and change history
Team assignment, personal schedule
An assignment has its owner and deadline. A personal plan helps the assignee decide which day to work on it. Scheduling the task for yourself does not move the team’s deadline.
- Place your task on a day
- Keep the original assignment linked
- Attach notes and reports as context
FAQ
Questions and answers
Can I create a task without a project board?
Yes. A chat has its own task list. If the work needs a project board and you have access, you can select it when creating the task.
Can a task have multiple assignees?
Yes. In a group conversation, choose multiple available participants. Each person’s acceptance and progress appear separately.
Can I assign any user on the server?
Available assignees depend on chat membership, permissions and the server’s module settings. GoMsg checks access before allowing an assignment.
Is this a complete replacement for Jira?
GoMsg supports daily assignments and staged work alongside conversations. Assess specialist development workflows, integrations and advanced reporting separately.
