Getting started

Everything you need to go from zero to a running project in under 10 minutes.

Creating your workspace

Sign up at taskrox.com/signup. Enter your name, email, password, and (optionally) a workspace name. Leave the workspace name blank and we'll generate a default based on your full name — you can rename it later. Your account is created as Owner of that workspace.

The workspace name is a label only and can be changed any time under Organisation → Details. It does NOT determine your tier, billing, or feature set.

After signup you can create additional workspaces from the workspace switcher. Each workspace you create or are invited to is an isolated tenancy with its own projects, members, and data. Cap and payment-method gates apply to additional workspaces — see *Workspace switcher and multi-workspace* below.

Workspace switcher and multi-workspace

TaskRox supports multiple workspaces per user. Use the workspace switcher in the top-left to move between workspaces you own, administer, or are a member of.

Creating an additional workspace: - Click the switcher and choose + New workspace. - Enter a name. The workspace name is a label only — it does NOT classify the workspace as Personal, Organisation, Company, or any other tier. - Eligibility checks apply (verified email, default cap by email-domain class, payment method beyond the cap, anti-abuse rate limits). See your account settings for current cap status.

Switching workspaces: click the switcher and pick a workspace. The active workspace is remembered across sessions until you switch.

Archiving a workspace: owners can archive an unused workspace from workspace settings to reclaim a slot under the cap. Archived workspaces are read-only; an owner or platform super-user can unarchive them.

Inviting team members and setting roles

Go to Organisation → Members and click Invite member. Enter their email and choose an org role:

  • Owner — full control including billing
  • Org Admin — can manage members, projects, and org settings
  • Member — can be added to projects; permissions controlled per-project

Once invited, they receive an email to set their password. Project-level access is then assigned separately per project.

Creating your first project

Click the + button in the sidebar (next to "Projects") or visit the Portfolio Dashboard and click New project.

Fill in: - Project name — e.g. "CLE Rock Chute 6" - Project code — short identifier shown in registers (e.g. "CLE-06") - Colour — used in the sidebar and throughout the app

The project is created and added to your sidebar. Click it to expand its modules.

Configuring project settings

Access Project Settings via the gear icon at the bottom of the sidebar module list, or from the Gantt toolbar calendar icon.

Schedule tab — set the calendar preset (5-8 Mon–Fri, 5-10 Mon–Fri, 7-12 Mon–Sun, 7-24 Mon–Sun, or Custom), working hours, hours per day, night shift, and FS successor start behaviour.

Team tab — assign role templates to project members and apply per-module permission overrides.

General / Notifications — placeholders for future project metadata and alert preferences.
