Tasks That Trigger Themselves

Following up on task completion shouldn’t take up your whole day. That’s why we built the Actions Management extension—to simplify how you assign and track what needs to get done. Whether you’re prompting employees to complete a course, sign a form, or review a file, this extension gives you the power to automate task distribution, set conditional logic, and send real-time notifications—all in one streamlined workflow.

Create with Control

Capability’s Actions extension allows you to build custom tasks and trigger-based action plans that assign themselves based on specific conditions—like course completions, certifications, or form submissions. With real-time notifications and targeted delivery by team or user, your task system runs itself, and not having to follow-up on every task that is completed will allow you to stay focused on the big picture.

Support Real-World Responsibilities

Create and track tasks tied to offline actions like equipment inspections, training follow-ups, or safety meetings.

Automate Cross-Platform Workflows

Trigger tasks automatically across extensions by linking actions to events like completed certifications or added files.

Whether you’re assigning a quick reminder, coordinating a multi-step project, or triggering real-world compliance actions, this extension adapts to your needs. Build smarter systems, stay organized, and automate follow-ups with precision.

Your All-in-One Training & Work Management Solution

Your Command Center for Actionable Insights

The Dashboard provides a visual overview of your organization’s activity with dynamic graphs that track task and plan completion across users and teams. Filter data by overdue, in progress, not started, or completed statuses, and instantly see how efficiently your workforce is moving through tasks and plans.

See Every Action Plan at a Glance

The Plans page gives you a powerful list or board view of every action plan in your system. Easily search, sort, or filter plans by priority, tags, date, team, or assignee, and quickly evaluate which plans are in motion, which are complete, and which still need attention. From this page you can also create a new Action Plan at any time, and set the Access Type to decide who the plan gets automatically assigned to.

Break Plans Into Manageable Milestones

Steps are the building blocks of every action plan, helping you break down complex processes into actionable stages. Each Step can contain multiple tasks and be customized with its own rules and parameters, giving you control over how work gets done during each step of the process.

The Core of Every Workflow

Tasks are where the work happens, and they can be created as part of a larger plan or as a single standalone requirement. Tasks can be created quickly and linked to actions like completing a course, uploading a file, or submitting a form, ensuring users are notified exactly when they need to act, and you’re notified automatically when the Task has been accomplished.

Creating a task is simple and fast. Name it, assign it to a user or team, choose a due date, priority, and tags, and link it to the relevant course, file, form, or qualification. You can also set other users or managers as Watchers to have them notified of task completion. Once the associated action is completed by the user, the system can mark the task as done—no manual follow-up needed.

Automate Workflows with Smart Conditions

Rules let you automate tasks and operations in the platform. This could include having a task be automatically assigned to everyone who has completed a certain course or filled out a particular form. For instance, instead of having to manually assign an orientation course to every new employee, you can set it to be automatically assigned to any user who fills out your onboarding form, reducing admin work and ensuring no step gets skipped.

Customize Your System for Smarter Oversight

The Actions extension has Settings that are broken down into four different pages, allowing you to tailor your Actions system by creating your own statuses, priorities, tags, and types. This makes organizing, filtering, and reporting on your plans and tasks effortless—exactly the way you need it.

What are Action Plans used for?2025-06-03T16:02:21+00:00

Action Plans are used to organize and automate multi-step workflows across your organization. They allow you to assign Tasks to users based on specific conditions or triggers—such as course completion or form submission—so that the right people are notified to take the right actions at the right time.

What is the difference between Steps and Tasks?2025-06-03T16:02:49+00:00

Steps are the larger building blocks within an Action Plan, representing stages or phases in a process. Tasks are the individual, actionable items that live within each Step. A Step can include multiple Tasks, and a Task can also exist independently outside of a Step or Plan when needed.

Can I select other users to be notified of Task completion?2025-06-03T16:03:35+00:00

Yes! When creating a Task, you can designate additional users or managers as Watchers. These users will automatically receive notifications when the Task is completed, keeping key personnel in the loop.
