The Task table is a base class that provides fields for the core ITSM applications such as Incident, Problem, and Change Management. All applications that extend the Task table share these fields in common.
-   **[Journal fields](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/platform-administration/table-administration-and-data-management/r_JournalFields.md)**  
Journal fields work together to create a log of changes and comments as tasks are worked on.
-   **[Reminder table](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/platform-administration/table-administration-and-data-management/reminder-table.md)**
