The Task Manager gives Syncro Users with appropriate security permissions visibility into all manually-initiated backups and restores. 

It details each task's type, creation time, and who initiated it as well as tracks the task's current status, due date (if applicable), completion time, and any pending actions.

The primary function of the Task Manager is to allow you to monitor the progress of backups and restores and review any associated errors. For a comprehensive overview, the Task Manager should be used in conjunction with the Audit Log, which tracks all user-based actions.
