Abstract
Embodiments presented herein provide task management capabilities for designing a complex data integration workflow in an integrated design environment (IDE). A task management tool of the IDE allows a developer to tag various stages of a data integration workflow in a non-linear manner. When the task management tool receives a tag for a given stage, the task management tool identifies incomplete tasks associated with the stage and generates a task list that includes the incomplete tasks. The developer may return to completing any of the tasks in the workflow in any sequence as desired.
