1. A computer-implemented method for task management, comprising:
- receiving, via communication links, a message between a sending user and a receiving user at a task management database;
determining whether the message includes a requested task;
extracting a parameter of the requested task based on directives in the message; and
updating a status of the requested task.

Abstract
An example of task management can include receiving a message between a sending user and a receiving user. The message can be analyzed to determine whether the message includes a requested task. A parameter of the requested task can be extracted from the message based on directives in the message. An update to a status of the task can be sent to the sending user and the receiving user.

6. A computing system for task management, comprising:
-
a memory resource; and a processing resource coupled to the memory resource to; receive, via communication links, a message from a sending user to a receiving user comprising a request to complete a task; identify task parameters within the message by locating language directives and word patterns; interface with a backend workflow application to transmit parameter information related to the requested task in the message; and update the parameter information of the requested task. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10)

11. A non-transitory machine-readable medium storing a set of instructions for task management that, when executed by a processing resource, causes a computer to:
-
receive, via communication links, a message from a sending user to a receiving user at task management database; determine whether the message includes a requested task; and for a message that includes the requested task; identify task parameters within the message by locating language directives and word patterns; designate the sending user as accountable and the receiving user as responsible; interface with a backend workflow application to transmit parameter information related to the requested task included in the message; and update the parameter information of the requested task as updating information in subsequent messages received from a user. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15)
