Mentioning grants visibility
When you @mention someone who doesn’t have access to the process yet, Tallyfy automatically gives them visibility. Only tag people who should actually see the work.
Comments are hidden from guests by default. When posting a comment, use the visibility dropdown (lock/unlock icon) to switch between Hide from guest and Visible to everyone.
Guests can always see their own comments.
React to any comment with emojis by clicking the reaction icon below it.
- Stay focused on the task - save general discussions for process-level comments
- @mention specific people when you need answers
- Use bold for key points or deadlines
- Include context: “Updated vendor list (see attachment)” beats just “Updated”
Click the three-dots menu (…) on a task and select Request Status. Tallyfy posts a comment that @mentions all assignees, asking for a status update.
Processes > Commenting processes
Tallyfy lets you add and manage comments on running processes for workflow-level discussions where you can @mention people to notify them directly and only comment authors or admins can edit or delete comments while template comments stay separate and never carry over to launched processes.
Tasks > Edit tasks
Tallyfy lets you edit any task on the fly — reassign people and update descriptions with rich text and media and adjust due dates for both standalone tasks and tasks inside running processes.
Tasks > Report blockers and improvement feedback
Tallyfy lets anyone flag problems on tasks by posting issue comments that block completion and notify all assignees and then anyone involved can resolve the issue with a required explanation while a tracker filter shows all processes with unresolved problems and separate template-level improvement comments let teams suggest changes for future runs.
How To > Ensure task completion
Tallyfy ensures tasks and approvals get done on time through automated reminders and escalation paths while also helping teams reduce overload by bundling related work and setting clear deadlines with built-in commenting and @mentions for direct follow-up.
