Adding custom task types and version names in a task management tool can have a number of benefits, depending on the specific context of your project. Here are some examples of what you can gain by adding custom task types and version names:

Custom Task Types

By adding custom task types, you can more accurately categorize tasks based on their specific characteristics or requirements. This can help team members quickly identify the nature of a task, and make better decisions about how to proceed with it.

It also can help in creating specific workflows, screens, and fields that are associated with that type of task.

Version Names

By adding custom version names, you can more accurately identify the specific version of a product or service that a task is related to. This can help team members quickly understand the context of a task, and make better decisions about how to proceed with it.

It also can help in tracking the progress of a specific version, and knowing what was done, what's pending, and what's planned for it.
