What is the Difference between a Project Task and a Checklist?
Project Tasks are great for non-repeatable, one-off tasks for a project. They can act as simpler to-dos or a punch list for specific tasks to complete on the project. Project tasks are limited to 100 per Project.
Checklist Tasks act as more detailed information capture taking place in the field to give a detailed view of conditions and steps to follow when completing work and can be assigned to users.
