Plan and complete tasks

A task records what you want to accomplish and by when it should be completed.

Create a task

  1. Open Tasks and select the appropriate task folder.
  2. Create a new task and enter a descriptive subject.
  3. Specify start, due date, priority, and, if applicable, a reminder.
  4. Save the task.

Track progress

Update status and progress as you work on the task. Mark a completed task as done. Filters and sorting help find open and due tasks; categories group related items.

Synchronization

Server-bound tasks are synchronized with the selected account, provided the provider supports this feature. If a change is missing, check the task folder, your permissions and the last synchronization notice.
