Summary


The tasks list and issues list look quite similar on the surface, and they contain similar information, but they have a number of important differences. A tasks list pushes information to a number of Office 2003 applications in the Shared Workspace task pane when a document stored on the site managing the task list is opened. An issues list is designed to track the comments added to issues as they are worked on, so it's well-suited to keeping historical information. An issues list can also be configured to email the person to whom the issue was assigned. Organizations can customize the lists by adding additional columns of information (metadata) and changing the contents of the standard columns, such as Status, Category, and Priority. A manager should think through the pros and cons of using these lists before relying on them too heavily, however.
