Managing To Do Lists

Share a To Do List

Email a copy of a construction task list to other project team members, clients, or subcontractors

BACKGROUND

As the industry's leading solution for construction project management, ConstructionOnline™ provides construction pros with powerful tools to create, manage, and share construction task lists. While project team members, subs, or even clients can be as Resources to To Dos––providing them easy access to construction tasks in their respective ConstructionOnline accounts––ConstructionOnline also provides the option to distribute task lists via email. Sharing a To Do List sends an email containing the entire task list to the intended recipient(s), which can be viewed or printed out at a later time. 

PREREQUISITES

  • The intended recipient(s) of the To Do List must be added as Contacts in ConstructionOnline before the To Do List can be shared via email. More information on the different types of ConstructionOnline Contacts can be found in the Essential Guide to Contacts.
