# Obsidian for [[project-management|Project Management]] - Refer to [[dataview]] and [[obsidian-tasks]]. - Dataview format is supported in Obsidian Tasks, but functions are limited. This approach provides better plain text support and access to advanced queries. - Dataview has limited support for _field shorthands_. In this case, it can query emojis related to dates used in Tasks. - Combine both plugins by adopting Dataview format. However, see [limitations](https://publish.obsidian.md/tasks/Reference/Task+Formats/Dataview+Format#Limitations+of+Dataview+Format). - Metadata related to a task must be placed at the end of the line, since Tasks parse them from the end of the line. - Only one format is supported at a time. There's no factory utility to convert between them. - Comparisons - **Formats:** Everything's supported under Dataview format. Under shorthand format, Dataview can only query shorthand related to dates. In display mode, both are displayed as emojis. Dataview format offers better plain text support. - **Query:** Dataview undoubtedly supports more complex query and view. Meanwhile, Dataview can query any inline fields in task, and inherit properties set in the page. Dataview can query additional properties like subtask, but Tasks queries also have their own uniqueness.
