You now have the ability to create an expiry date for a task! There are 2 ways to create the expiry, you can either have the same date for everyone, that is decided by you or you can have a date entered by the user.

Please note: When this task expires, you can decide whether you would like the higher permission levels to update this only or whether you would like to give your users the option to update the task. Your users will then have this task pop up again on their My Elements page to complete.

We will walk you through this but want to give you some examples or where this might be useful.
