Tasks

Use Tasks to keep track of any work you have to do.

Create individual Tasks and trace their progress in your Day View or Task View.

To create a new task, ensure you are in the Agenda window and:

  • click on the New Task button on the toolbar
  • choose Edit > New > Task from the menu
  • press [F7] on the keyboard
Type in a description for your task and set a start date and time, a due date and time and a Priority level.

You can adjust the Task's Percentage Completed as you work on it. Use the arrows to scroll the completion status up and down.

You can also specify the date on which you completed a particular Task by selecting the Completion date checkbox. Selecting this checkbox will automatically update the Percentage Completed to 100%.

Depending on the access rights you have set, Tasks you create can be viewable by other users.
