You can specify constraints on the amount of time a user has to complete tasks.You can choose from three ways to configure time constraints:

Send reminders to the user as prompts to complete tasks. (See Providing reminders.)
Escalate tasks and send them to a different user after a specified period of time. (See Escalating tasks.)
Set deadlines and follow a specified route when the deadlines occur. (See Setting deadlines on the task.)
