# Tasks overview

### Overview

The Tasks panel on your Dashboard gives you a quick snapshot of what needs your attention today. Tasks shown here are **private to you** and are not visible to other users.

From the Dashboard, you can:

* View **Today’s tasks** and overdue tasks**.**
* Mark tasks as completed.
* Open the full **Tasks** page to manage all tasks.

This helps you keep track of important work without anything slipping through the cracks.

The **Today’s tasks** panel is located on the top-right side of your Dashboard.
