(17)

You will not be able to forward a task that has a Forward Status. To forward

the forwarded task, you will need to go to the date to which the task was forwarded and re-forward it.

the list of the date to which the task was forwarded.

The rest of the items on the task’s Information Card will be described on the following sections.

Adding a Start & End Date to a Daily Task. (Tasks shown several days)

You do not need to add a start & end date to each task, however if a task will take more than a day to be completed or if you’d like to be reminded that a specific task is due several days in advance you can do so using this feature.

To edit a task’s Start & End Date:

1. Open the task’s Information Card.

2. Click twice over the date. By default the current date will be assigned as the start date.

(19)

Additional notes:

-

Multi-day tasks appear in your Daily Task List every day from the Start Date to the selected End Date..

-

As this is one task that lasts for several days (and not a repeating task) * If you change the Priority or Category for this task on any of the dates

mentioned above, the change will be reflected in all dates.

* Task will not appear as Overdue until after the selected “End Date”. * When you mark this task as completed:

-

“End Date” field will be automatically filled.

-

The task and its information will be stored in that day’s Daily Task List.

-

The task will disappear from all other dates.

Setting Alarms for Tasks

To add an Alarm to a task:

1. Open the task’s Information Card.

2. Click on “Alarm”.

3. Select a time from the drop down menu.

* You can find the “Time of the task” in the task’s Information Card, next to the task’s due date.

IMPORTANT: the default task time is 9 AM. When a task has different start and end dates the default task time will be 9 AM for the due date and 12 AM for the other days.

To set a different time, click 


1. Open the task’s Information Card

2. Click over the task’s time and type a new hour and minute.


Setting Specific Time Zones for Tasks

Whenever you add a task it is assigned a Floating Time Zone, the task is not tied

to a specific time zone, therefore if you travel between time zones the task will move along with you. 


Basically this means tasks added at home might end a day forward or a day past when travelling and tasks added while travelling may move a day before or after once you get back home.

(20)

If you are based in California will travel to Tokyo next Monday and you need to run some errands there, you might want to add these tasks on Monday and then set their Task’s Time Zone to Tokyo.

While you’re still in California these tasks will be appearing on Sunday’s Task List – however once you arrive to your destination the tasks will show

on the right date. This ensures that the tasks will show with a normal status on the right date, instead of showing as overdue or a day after.

You can avoid this by setting a specific time zone for a task as follows: 1. Give a secondary click to the task.

2. Select Edit.

3. Open the task’s Information Card.

4. Go to “Time Zone” and select from the drop down menu.

IMPORTANT: Repeating Tasks must have a Floating Time Zone. If tied a task to a

specific time zone and then added a repeating rule, the task’s Time Zone will automatically be changed to Floating.

Repeating Tasks

To set a repeating rule:

1. Enter or select a task.

2. Give a secondary click to open the task’s Quick Option Menu.

3. Select “Edit” for the task’s Information Card to open.

4. Click “Set Repeating Rule”

5. Choose the Frequency in which you’d like the task to be repeated, from the

available options.

Daily

Weekly

Monthly

Yearly

Custom

6. Set an End for the Repeating Rule. If you don’t set an end date, the task

will repeat endlessly over time.

If you’d like for the repeats to end at a specific date:

• Go to the option box that says, “Ends” select On Date, • Set an ending date by clicking on the calendar shown.

(21)

• And on the blank box next to “After”, type the number of repeats after which the task should stop appearing on your lists.

Or if you’d like to end the repeats immediately: • Switch the frequency to “None”.

IMPORTANT:

-

Repeating tasks cannot be set to a specific Time Zone.

-

The Forward status is disabled for Repeating Tasks.

• To affect the repeating rule, select “All Future”.

IMPORTANT: If the task was set to end on a specific date i.e. December 31st or after a number of repeats, dragging the task to a new date will not change this.

CHAPTER 8: MASTER TASKS TAB

This is a tab designed to:

1. Keep track of all the tasks that do not have a specific due date. 2. Balance your schedule.

In other words, Opus One provides you with two lists of tasks: - Daily Tasks, everything you need to do Today; and,

- Master Tasks List, where you can store all those tasks you need or want to do eventually, until you find and assign them to a specific date

Master Tasks can be arranged by Priority, divided into Categories and rearranged by dragging & dropping items to new locations.

With the help of the Planner you can visualize the activities, tasks &

appointments for the weeks & months ahead. Here you can plan and distribute the workload (with a few drag & drops) in a most efficient & balanced way. Picturing the weeks ahead also helps fitting tasks from the master list into your schedule. When you find the appropriate day & time simply drag the task from the list to the Planner (or the Calendar below) to assign it a due date or to the Schedule to save the task as an Event.

Similarities & Differences between Daily & Master Tasks

Master Tasks are tasks that do not have a due date and because of this are

kept on a separate list until you mark them Complete, Cancelled or assign

them a Due Date – when any of this is done, the task will move from the Master Task List to the corresponding Daily Task List.

Much like your daily tasks, Master Tasks can have a Priority, Category, Status, Notes and a Start Date. What you cannot add to this kind of tasks is

neither Repeating Rules nor a “Forward Until” date.

(43)

The following chart illustrates better the difference:

Adding a Master Task

Master Tasks can be added in several different ways:

• Enter the task on the blank space below the date and click the plus sign (+). • Enter the task on the blank space below the date and press the Enter key. • Give a secondary click on the Master Task List and select “Add Task” • Remove the due date from a daily task.

• Select a daily task, give a secondary click and select the “Send to Master Tasks” option from the menu.

When adding a Master Task you can also add a priority and category. To add a priority simply type the chosen priority before the tasks name separating both with a space. To add a category type the category name between brackets. For instance, instead of Master Task, type A1 Master Task or A1 [Opus One] Master Task

For more information on Task’s Priority & Category please refer to Chapter 4, “Daily Tasks”.

Editing a Master Task

You can add a Priority and Category while entering the Master Task, however if you’d like to add these later, or edit other information you can do so as follows:

Daily Tasks Master Tasks

Priority ✔ ✔

Category ✔ ✔

Normal, In Progress, Delegated & Scheduled Status

✔ ✔

Task Notes ✔ ✔

View as a single list ✔ ✔

View by Categories ✔ ✔

Due date ✔ ✖

Time Zone ✔ ✖

Repeating Rules ✔ ✖

Completed / Cancelled Status ✔

(44)

1. Double click the task’s name or Priority to edit these;

2. Give a secondary click to access the task’s Information Menu and edit the task’s Status, Priority, Start Date, Category and Notes; or

3. Drag & drop the task to a new location in the list (to change priority & category) to any date on the Calendar (to transform the task into a Daily

Task) or into the planner either as a Scheduled Event or as a Daily Task.

There are several ways in which you can edit a Master Task.

-

A click to the circle located before the task’s priority will mark a task as completed.

-

Double clicking the task’s name or priority will allow you to quickly edit these.

-

Dragging the task to a new category will change the task’s category.

-

Dragging the task to a new place on the list will change the task’s priority. The task will take the priority from the task above +1.

-

Dragging the task to a date will remove the task from the Master Task's list and send it to that day’s Daily Task List.

For more editing options open the Master Task’s Quick Option menu or the Master Task’s Information Card. Both of which are described with detail in

the following sections of this manual.

For information on adding notes to Master Tasks

Master Task’s Quick Option Menu

A secondary click to the master task’s priority will open the Quick Option Menu, where you can quickly:
