Adding an assignment is the second step in Freelancer Dashboard client, assignment, and invoice management. Before you add your first assignment, you’ll need to add a client. Start with the guide for adding a new client if you have not done so yet. After setting up at least one client, you can begin adding assignments. Each assignment must be tied to a client, so you’ll need to add each client before adding assignments for that client.
To add an assignment, click on the Assignments link in the main navigation menu when logged in. That takes you to a screen to view added assignments and add new ones. You can also add an assignment using the button at the top of your main dashboard. If you’re logged in, click here to go directly to the new assignment page.
From here, you’ll be taken to a screen where you can add assignment details. Choose the client, then add the assignment name or title, due date, status, rate, and other fields. You can always come back and edit an assignment from the Assignments dashboard.
If an assignment is set with a status Submitted, it’s automatically added to your next invoice for the client. Even if you change the status back to editing or assigned, it remains on your next invoice for that client.
