Overview of Stage-Based Task View in Horilla HRMS Project App
Managing tasks within a project is often where the real work happens, and where things can fall apart without the right tools. In growing teams and multi-department organizations, it’s not enough to just create projects; you need to see progress clearly and act on it instantly. That’s exactly what Horilla’s Stage-based Task View brings to the table.
In this blog, we’ll explore what happens when you click on a project row in the Horilla Project App, how tasks are grouped by stages, and how this view empowers teams to manage work more visually & efficiently.
Project View on Click: Instant Context, Real-time Action
With just a single click on any project row, Horilla HRMS expands the view to display an interactive project dashboard, revealing not just project details but a dynamic workflow board of all tasks organized by stage.

Here’s what you see:
- Project Overview: Title, managers, team members, description, and timeline—all in one glance.
- Stage Columns: Tasks are grouped into customizable stages such as To Do, In Progress, Completed, On Hold, or Cancelled.
- Task Cards: Each task appears as a movable card with key info like title and deadline.
- + Create Task Button: Add a new task directly into the selected stage with ease.
- + Add Stage Button: Customize your project pipeline by adding as many stages as needed.
This view transforms your project from a static list to a Kanban-style board—ideal for agile workflows, sprint planning, or just keeping a team aligned.
Why Stage-Based Task Views Matter
Every project goes through stages, whether formalized or informal. Horilla’s visual layout captures this logic naturally, helping teams:
- Visualize Progress: Clearly see which tasks are moving and which are stuck.
- Spot Bottlenecks: If one column is overloaded, it’s a sign that attention is needed.
- Act Faster: Move tasks between stages with a click. No digging through menus.
- Collaborate Better: Everyone sees the same board. Everyone knows where things stand.
This interface encourages a habit of updating tasks as they move through stages, resulting in real-time visibility without needing status meetings.
Flexible, Scalable, and Team-Friendly
Whether you’re a project manager overseeing timelines or a team member executing tasks, this stage view is designed to support how modern teams work:
- Fully Customizable Stages: Add, remove, or rename stages based on your team’s process.
- Role-Based Access: Only members or managers of the project can view or update tasks, ensuring data security and simplicity.

- HR Team: Manage hiring tasks across Interview, Offer, Onboarding, and Training stages.
