Configuring group task triggers
Use the Task triggers page in WebSked groups to create automated processes that help you streamline tasks your teams perform regularly, such as reviewing and editing written content.
As an operations manager, you want to speed up the editorial process in your newsroom.
You access WebSked to set up task triggers for your editors' group, so they start working on your correspondent stories as soon as they change their status from Draft to Review.
After creating the task trigger, WebSked automatically assigns your editors' group review tasks any time a correspondent changes their story status from Draft to Review, speeding up the publishing process.
