Assigning tasks to multiple employees is difficult

[minreiseah]

The current workflow of adding multiple employees is:

1. list employees
2. keep multiple employee ids in my head/write it down
3. list the tasks
4. key in assigntask [task-id] [employee-id] (multiple times) to assign the task to potentially many employees.

The issue here is in point (4) where the user has to key in the assigntask multiple times to assign the task to multiple employees.

Team's Response

Valid point. However, our main priority was to get a MVP working, and that would mean at least being able to assign tasks to employees.

While being able to assign multiple tasks at once would be nice to have, it is not a priority issue for now and can be added in a future iteration.

Also, as per the planned enhancements point 7, we will be adding prefixes to the assigntask and unassigntask commands. This means that in the future both of these commands can be made to work just like how the edit command would handle multiple tags at the same time. For the current iteration this is not easy to implement given the format of the command.
