Ability to change and update assignee on expired tasks
We would like to see an improvement so that it is possible to delete and update users from "Modify Task" even for expired tasks.
For expired tasks, pressing "Update" from "Change Task" will not respond, and the task cannot be edited.
It is inconvenient not to be able to edit or update tasks, as tasks cannot be marked as completed when unauthorized users are absent due to leaving the company or being transferred.
Also, although it is possible to update a task by extending its deadline, I would like to keep a history of when the task was created.

Enhance Task Management for High-Volume Users
My team relies heavily on Box tasks, and we’ve found that the current functionality lacks robust filtering and sorting options. Beyond the basic status categories—In Progress, Completed, Approved, or Rejected—there are no meaningful ways to organize or prioritize tasks. This becomes especially challenging when managing a high volume of tasks. For example, our HR teammate regularly handles 50 to 100 active tasks at a time, and navigating them efficiently in Box can be clunky and time-consuming. It appears the task feature was not designed for this scale of use. I recommend enhancing the filtering, sorting, and organizational capabilities to better…

When multiple people are selected for an approval task, you can select the approval order.
When multiple people are selected for an approval task, you can select the approval order.
The task function is often used for document approval work, and there is a need to be able to set up a flow all at once so that documents are presented in order of higher rank, such as group manager > department manager > division manager, etc.
Because an approval task needs to be set up each time something is approved, it takes time for approval to reach the person in charge if approval is not noticed quickly, resulting in reduced work efficiency.承認タスクで複数人を選択した場合、承認順を選択できるようにしたい

The message field for tasks will have suggestion functions and canned phrase input.
The message field for tasks will have suggestion functions and canned phrase input.
The information you need to fill out is basically the same, so it's a hassle to have to enter it every time.
I'd like a feature that automatically suggests the most recently used message content in the form of options and allows me to save it as a standard phrase.タスクのメッセージ欄についてサジェスト機能や、定型文入力が欲しい
記入する内容は基本的に同じ内容のものが多いため、都度入力するのは手間になっています。

Display deleted user name instead of Prior Collaborator name on the Activity Details
Display the name of a previous commenter, approver or collaborator, even if the user has left the organisation. At the moment it just says 'a prior collaborator' and this is not helpful when retrospectively tracking why key business decisions were made.

Give Box Relay more options
Relay is weak at the moment when it comes to renaming files with very few variables supported when compared to rival storage apps.
Adding the ability to do character replacement/removal in the filenames of assets or even using regex would greatly enhance the automation offered by Box and reduce the reliance on third party apps to rename files.

Sort and Filter Feature within In Progress Tasks
My team and I utilize the Task feature heavily and my Task Inbox becomes full. While I can currently filter down Tasks to "In Progress" I really would like to be able to sort my "In Progress" tasks further such as by due date and filter by task assignee.

Ability to edit tasks for users other than the workflow/task creater
It would be nice if owners/co-owners of content could edit a task on items in a folder in case somebody is out and unable to do so

Box Task Inbox Filter to see only Tasks pending my action
I use my Task Inbox all the time, and often receive Tasks with multiple assignees. It is frustrating when I can't filter out the tasks I have completed but that are still in progress pending action by someone else. Could you add a filter that would allow me to see only the Tasks pending action by me, that is separate from all tasks still in progress by any assignee?

Automate task creation on newly uploaded files.
This is a multi-part request: I would like to be able to automate task creation and I would like to incorporate SLAs based on document tags/folders/etc.
Basically, I would like a task to generate automatically based on set rules (identified assignee(s), SLAs e.g "Due Date = X min/hours/days in the future" based on x SLA)2 votes -
Data Insights for Box Tasks
I am looking for a way to see a matrix of box tasks for each member of my team with their status, completion, etc. for all members of my team. Ultimately a dashboard view that indicates the number of tasks received, approved, denied, completed, outstanding, and overdue. Alternatively, a data connection to Monday.com or PowerBi would assist in seeing where we are at individually and as a team.

Show all uncompleted tasks on iPad
Currently you can only check up to 20 tasks in the Box iPad app.
However, when you are high up in the company, there are many tasks sent to you throughout the day and cannot see all the uncompleted tasks inside iPad.It would be great if you can increase the numbers of tasks shown or show all the uncompleted tasks on iPad too.

Notification that someone you assigned a Task did not complete it by the deadline you set
Often I assign Tasks with deadlines. While the person receiving the task gets notifications that the deadline is approaching, I do not get a notification if they did not complete the Task on time.
This would be extremely helpful to know that Tasks have not been completed so we can follow up.2 votes -
When opening and zooming in on an Excel document saved in the Box app, the document closes frequently, making it difficult to use.
I am using the Box app through my iPhone.
There is one problem... It's serious for me personally (to the point where I gave up on the box app...)
Open the Box app on your iPhone and open the Excel file saved inside.
First, move your finger up, down, left, and right to view the material.
However, since the screen is too small, I zoom in to view the document.
To zoom in on a document, use two fingers or the fingers of both hands to zoom in or out.
This is where the problem arises. When you zoom in…1 vote -
Slack notifications for tasks
We cannot be getting task notifications on Slack Channel. Comment notifications to the Slack Channel have become very convenient, but if task notifications are also given, seamless communication will be possible and more convenient.

Sort order after processing approval tasks and general tasks using Box Relay
After assigning and approving tasks in Box Relay, we confirmed that tasks are displayed in ascending order according to the order in which they were put into the Relay workflow personnel, not according to the processing date and time.
We feel that the current specification, in which approved tasks are not displayed in time order, is not intuitive.
We would like to see the order in which General Tasks and Approved Tasks are displayed sorted by the oldest processing date, or the ability to reorder them arbitrarily.Box Relayでタスクを割り当て承認を行った結果、
タスクが処理日時の並び順ではなくRelayワークフローの担当者に入れた並びで昇順で表示されることを確認しました。承認タスクが時間の順に表示されない現行の仕様は直感さに欠ける仕様と感じます。
一般タスクおよび承認タスクの表示順番を処理日時の古い順番に並べていただくか、任意で並び替えができる機能が欲しいです。2 votes -
Setting a Due Date for Tasks
I noticed that when assigning a due date to a task, the person does not receive the task on the actual due date. They receive a reminder email the day before and then an overdue email on the day after. However, there is nothing they get on the actual due date so it would be nice to have the task sent to the person on the actual due date.

Anonymous
We need a completely anonymous comment feature.

Assigning tasks without previewing file
When assigning a general or approval task, we must open the file itself and then add the tasks.
There should be an option to just right click the file (on box.com) and have the ability to assign general/approval tasks from there instead of having to open each file.
