Approvals and Guests

Ask for a decision, and invite clients without paying for a seat

Ask one or more people to approve a task, and add what you want them to look at. They see it under Needs you, and can approve, request changes or reject with a comment. Clients and viewers can be invited to just the projects they need. They do not take a paid seat, and can comment on tasks and documents or just read.
