# Setup Checklist

> Seven onboarding tasks that unlock the rest of Bizzy

The Setup Checklist is a home-page widget that tracks the seven things worth
doing when you first join an organization. It auto-completes as you work — most
tasks finish when you create the matching entity somewhere else in the product.

## How the widget behaves

### Open any task

Tasks render as an accordion. The first pending task is expanded by default,
showing its full description and a large **Open** button that takes you to the
right page. Click any other row to expand it instead — only one task is open at
a time.

Collapsed pending tasks keep a quick **Open** link so you can jump straight to
the right page without expanding them first.

### Completed tasks move to the bottom

When you finish a task — by creating the matching entity or using **Mark done**
— it moves to the bottom of the list with a check mark. Completed rows stay
re-openable, so you can revisit the underlying page. There is no "Setup
complete!" message: once every task is done, the widget disappears from the home
page entirely.

### Manual actions (Owner and Admin only)

If you have the **Owner** or **Admin** role, each pending task also shows a
**Mark done** button that completes the task without creating the entity —
useful when you finished it through another path (for example, you imported a
contact via API before opening the web app).

Users without the manage-setup-tasks permission see the same list but without
this button — the tasks still auto-complete based on entity creation.

<Note>
  Auto-completion runs regardless of your role. Even a regular user can finish
  the entire checklist just by using the product; the manual **Mark done**
  button only exists for Owner/Admin edge cases.
</Note>

## When the widget appears

* **At least one task pending:** the widget renders on the home page.
* **All tasks completed:** the widget is hidden. The home page shows other
  dashboards (Eisenhower matrix, recent activity, etc.) in its place.
* **Brand-new org with no tasks yet:** the widget renders with all seven tasks
  pending.
