Sequence Task Associations

The value here is not the tasks, it is where they show up. A task that only knows about the enrolled contact is a task you have to go hunting for in a separate queue, which is exactly why task lists go stale and get ignored. Auto-associating a sequence task to the company and deals it belongs to means it surfaces on the records you are already working, not in a list you have to remember to visit.

Pair it with the association filtering that shipped the same week and a task becomes something you can filter a record list by, which is a genuinely different way to work. One gotcha worth knowing: the settings live under Settings, Objects, Activities, which is not where most people look, and it inherits the activity-association rules you have already configured.
