### Task Form <a href="#task-form" id="task-form"></a>

The assigned Task displays in the **Form** tab. The **Form** tab displays by default when an assigned Task is opened. The Form tab displays information differently depending on whether Workflow software is involved in the task's activity:

* **Forms in which Workflow software is involved with the activity:** The **Form** tab displays an interactive Screen, which is a Form-type Screen. Form-type Screens allow Request participants to enter, review, and/or make decisions based on information in the form. Below is an example of a Task in which Workflow software is involved with the activity.

* **Forms in which Workflow software is not involved with the activity:** The **Form** tab displays a Screen that only displays a message. This is a Display-type Screen that allows the Task assignee to do a manual task in which Workflow software is not directly involved, such as moving inventory containers. When the manual Task is complete, the Task assignee clicks the **Complete Task** button. Below is an example of a Task in which Workflow software is not involved with the activity.
