# Adding/Cloning Tasks Cloning from another Task may be useful if you have a similar previous Task, as it’ll save time by copying over most information from that Task, such as the status and comments. To create a new Task, follow these steps: ### Add a new task * In the Task Page, click the plus (+) icon in the top right corner of your screen.

Add Task

* Enter a task name: Give your new task a clear and descriptive name. * Select Source Task: A window or drop-down menu will appear where you can select the existing task you want to copy.

Create New Tag

### Clone customization * Please tick or untick the checkbox to copy members and checklist from the original task. * Once you have selected your copy options, click ‘Submit' to finish creating the new task. {% hint style="info" %} **Tip:** *Cloning is a great way to reuse information from previous tasks without having to start from scratch. Remember to customize the clone task with any specific details needed for the new project.* {% endhint %} 👉 After creating a Task, you can edit information, update progress, add comments and perform many other operations in the [Task Detail Page](https://support.hivo.co/tasks/task-detail-page) to manage Tasks effectively.
