Recommendations Engine

The Recommendations Engine enhances task management by providing intelligent suggestions for prioritizing and taking action on tasks within a cluttered inbox. These intelligent recommendations support the decision-making process, helping users identify the most impactful actions and avoid overlooking tasks close to their deadlines. The Recommendations Engine has the following key features:

• Identifies tasks that will be overdue in the next 24 hours.

• Suggests marking tasks as high priority or reassigning them to another user.

• Recognizes similar tasks and recommends creating a rule for consistent handling.
