Activities are shown in the calendar display or the task list

You can choose whether an activity is displayed to the left in the actual calendar or the task list to the right. This is controlled by the activity types for the different activities. Activities types Registered, Demonstration and Meeting are shown in the calendar, whereas activities such as Letter, Fax and Tel. out are shown in the task list.

You can edit the activity types by right-clicking the activity type field within the activity card and selecting Change in properties register. You can also click View - Settings - Company - Properties Register. If you select Transfer the activity to the task list, the activity will only be displayed in the task list. If you deselect this option, the activity will automatically be displayed in the calendar. Any changes you make here will not affect existing activities, only new ones.

Colour coded activities in the calendar

New tasks are created by entering the subject in the field marked 'Click here to create a new activity'. Previously created tasks are opened by double-clicking on them, the same as in the calendar.

Activities in the task list and calendar can be transferred to the program calendar or task list. The activities you create in the program can be transferred automatically to the calendar and task list in Outlook.
