Create task on task table then.

you can use record producer which with target table as "vtb_task"

Users can then submit that record producer and it creates private task

Ensure you associate that record producer with correct catalog and category so that users can find it easily

What menu option do I choose to that allows me to create a task on the task table ?

Thank you. I don't see a menu for Ticket. Let me work with our Administrator on enabling it.

You can create a record producer that will add the Private Task in vtb_task table..

Also you need to write a business rule to add a record to the vtb_card table as well.
