Editing a Task

Why Tasks Cannot Be Edited After Creation

Once a task is assigned in BoardCloud, the details cannot be edited.

This isn’t a limitation, it’s a feature.

By locking the task parameters (who, what, when, budget, etc.) once saved, the system ensures that the original assignment is preserved as the audit record. If anything about the task needs to change, a new assignment must be created.

This approach supports responsible governance: it ensures that assignments are consistent, prevents covert changes mid-stream, makes it clear who is accountable, and delivers a reliable audit log of what was asked and when.

In short: it keeps things honest, clear and fair.
