  • New Task
  • Assign a new task to yourself or a colleague
  • Review and approve (group review)
  • Assign a review task to a group
  • Review and Approve (one or more reviewers)
  • Assign a review task to multiple reviewers
  • Review and Approve (pooled review)
  • Assign a review task to multiple reviewers, who can take ownership of the task
  • Review and Approve (single reviewer)

It is also possible to create custom workflows.
