Managing Tasks - NTAC
Discover how to effectively manage and use tasks with the NTAC model in Case Manager.
What are Tasks?
In Behavioral Case Manager, tasks play a crucial role in managing and tracking different steps within a case. Users are assigned specific tasks to ensure that each step in the workflow is completed efficiently. These tasks are included in predefined processes, which are pre-configured and ready to use in standard workflows. Additionally, tasks can be added to custom Process Models, providing flexibility and allowing users to tailor workflows to meet specific needs or unique requirements. This combination of default and custom task management helps streamline and optimize case management processes.
