Once you have allocated officers and ships, things are a bit different.
If you want to truely roleplay moving your TF commander and his staff around, you have to build a ship with a flag bridge. Then you can move the officers to that flag bridge, fly over to whatever system/planet you want them to be and drop them off there.
As for creating a TG in another system:
Enter SM mode.
Create a new task group
Go to the History/Officers/Misc tab
Set the position of the task group to the system/planet your shipyard is.
Done
Again, the TG is only a placeholder until the first ship is allocated.

I have a question: how does "move to pupulation" works in the case of the task forces? I wanted to create new one in a colonised system but I can only make them on Earth. I have discovered "improved command and control" tech and I have built level 1 Sector HQ in a system I want to make this TF in.
(Note: I assume using SpaceMaster would help, but I'd rather have "proper" way of doing this.)
On a related note (as this is the problem that spawned a question) when I move shipyard to another system and I want to build a ship, the only task groups I can send new construction to are somwhere else, ie, there is no "shipyard TG" assigned to the new construction site. And I can't create a shipyard TG for the new construction site, becouse all new task groups are located at Sol. Long story short: how one sets up new Shipyard TG for new shipyard locations?
(Note: I'm pretty sure I could just sent a random ship to the planet and assign all new construction to it, but, again, this is workaround. If this is how it's supposed to work, I will do it of course.)
