Getting Started With Chat

Communication is the key to successful project management. With Edworking, it"s easier to keep in touch with your team. With so many possibilities for miscommunication, Edworking simplifies things by centralizing your work and the communication regarding the tasks, all in one place.

How to view conversations?

In the right side of the dashboard, you can see all recent communications. This includes the conversation you have with your team members, and the room for the different tasks where you can message the assigned members in one go. It is similar to a group chat.

In the example below, you can see the name of the team member, and the different tasks such as "How to use Chats." In this case, when you click to open it, you can see who created the task, who joined the task, and the status of the task in general.

Get in touch with anyone, not just Edworking Users

In the conversations section, beside the "Chats," you may click the + sign.

You may then choose a contact. If you have hundreds of contact list, you can utilize the search button and search for their names.

However, if the user is not yet part of the Edworking community, you may ask for an email and paste it on the email field and click invite. The person you invited will receive an invitation and personalized message to join your space in Edworking.

Lastly, enter the message you want to convey and click "Send Message."

Respond to a Message

You can type your message to respond or send an emoji to show your acknowledgement and support.

Organization

You don"t want to lose important messages, and that"s for sure. That"s why, Edworking"s conversation section has 4 categories namely, Recent, Private, Tasks, and Spaces to help you get organized.

Tips

• You can hide unimportant private chats to keep your messaging list organized.
• If you"ve assigned multiple users in one task, send a message to the group instead of messaging each user one by one.
• Utilize Edworking to conduct meetings in discussing the project or task to keep all members notified instead of sending Zoom or Meet links.
