Easily assign Tasks from Google Docs

In Google Docs, you can now assign a checklist item to yourself or a colleague that will then show up in the assignee’s Tasks list. When edits are made to an assigned item in Tasks, such as a change to the title, due date or completion state, those updates will show in the Doc, and vice versa.

• Admins: Google Tasks must be turned ON for people in your domain to manage their assigned items in Tasks. Visit the Help Center to learn more about turning Tasks on or off for users. 
• End users: Edit-access to the Doc is required to create or edit a task. Visit the Help Center to learn more about assigning tasks from Google Docs and managing assigned tasks in Google Tasks.
