Creating Action Items in Meeting Minutes
Action items help track tasks and follow-ups discussed during meetings. In Buildend, you can create and manage action items directly within your meeting minutes. Follow the steps below:
Creating a New Action Item
- Navigate to the Meeting Minute where you want to add an action item.
In the Meeting Editor Toolbar, click the Action Item icon.
Action Item Icon - Alternatively, press Ctrl + Shift + T to create an action item using a shortcut.
- Fill out the action item form:
- Name of the action item
- Due Date
- Assigned User
- Status
(Optional) Associated Meeting Minute
Click Save Action Item.
- The form will reset, allowing you to immediately create another action item if needed.
Adding or Editing an Existing Action Item
- To link an existing action item, click on the item directly within the meeting.
- This will open the Edit window, where you can update its details.
Note: When a follow-up meeting is created, any action items that do not have a “Complete” status will automatically carry over into the new meeting for continued tracking.
This feature helps ensure important tasks are captured, assigned, and followed up on across your meetings.
