Now we will move from active list to enter in the Task list.

You can do it in using the right arrow key or click in the main icon bar in choosing the task icon button.

We will create a task in clicking on the "multiples papers".

The Task Id is the Task Number, it's the same use as in Microsoft Project.

Enter the task description in the task field. The Status can be "In Progress", "Planned" or "Complete". The task with the "In progress" status will be displayed in bold. All the complete tasks will be crossed out. The 'Planned' task will be displayed without any specific font style.

Of course, you can also write this entry in the agenda as a Task. A specific todo list will be created by QuickP. This todo list is called "QuickP". All the tasks, todos or Troubleshootings written in the Agenda as task will be added to this specific todo list.

Let see the 'Key Dates'.

The Initiated date corresponds to the creation date. The Started date is the beginning of the task. The Complete On field correspond to the planned complete date.

Understand the workload.

Workload can be defined in hours or days depends of your company time report system. The Initial Load is the planned required workload to execute the task. The Already done is what it has been done yet on this task. The Rest Todo must be entered by you. This matches to the remainder of work to complete the task.

You can choose 2 ways to manage the Already Done work. You can enter it direclty in editing the entry or use the Time Log list.

The Unit Cost will be used to calculate the total cost of this task. this can be compare to what you have entered according to the manpower orders (see the orders list).

The Task has been displayed in the screen with the right details.

So what is this percentage displayed at the end of the line ?

In fact, this percentage corresponds to the progress of the task. It's calculated according to the Already Done and the Rest Todo fields.

If I enter a Already Done to 48 and a Rest Todo at 20.

QuickP will display 71% of progress according to this formula : Done*100/(Done+Rest).

So now what are these left and right arrows in the columns headers.

Actually this arrows are just cosmetics. Click on the right arrow tabulate the task on the right.

I'll add a new task and I will click on the right, here is the result :

This feature is used for group of tasks.

You can also use Categs for Task as for the other kind of list in using the 'Set Categ' Button.

You can also apply a new filter on the list in complement of Project/All and Categ filters. You can in this pecular case choose to display only tasks with a 'in progress' status. To do it, just click on the 'All' button in the middle of the screen.

Choose the filter 'in Progress' and QuickP will display only task in progress.

You can also modify the task of one or a group of task.

Let change the status of both task to 'Planned'. Select the both task in using the down arrow key + shift and click on the 'Status' button.

Click on the 'planned' item menu to select it. You can also change or add this Task to a Todo item.

Now you remark that the tasks has disappeared ! That's correct : have a look on the status filter : QuickP displays only tasks In Progress not the others.
