Where:Sidebar

  • Business: your organisation in Hydi. Everything you see belongs to one business.
  • Staff member: a person who signs in to Hydi for your business, as Staff or Admin. The owner is the one who created the business.
  • Client: a person your business works with. Clients never sign in. They use their portal link.
  • Client portal: the page where a client sees and finishes their tasks. Their portal link, shown as Client Portal Link, opens it.
  • Task: a piece of work for one client. It cannot be moved to another client.
  • Draft: a task the client cannot see yet. Active: sent and waiting on the client.
  • Submitted: the client has finished and you need to review it. Needs changes: you sent it back.
  • Completed and Cancelled: the task is finished or withdrawn.
  • Overdue: a tag on an Active, Submitted or Needs changes task past its due date. It is not a status.
  • Nudge: a reminder you send now instead of waiting for the next scheduled one.
  • Task template: a saved set of tasks you can assign to one or many clients.
  • Form: questions a client answers online. You build it in the Form Library and attach it to a task.
  • File Library: documents you upload once and attach to tasks or share with clients.
  • Client invitation: an email or text that lets a new client enter their own details.
  • Sample data: the client, tasks and template Hydi adds in setup. Admins can clear it.
