Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

 

Tasks are like tasks in MS Outlook or any other CRM system – they represent a ”To-do” item of some sort. In Total Enterprise CRM a task may be attached to one or more items - for example, a person and a company.   The cross referencing function allows searching of tasks based on a variety of different values – which is useful when trying to establish priorities and uncompleted activities.

 

To view list of tasks associated to "your" account in CRM system, follow these easy steps:

 

Step 1: Select 'My Tasks'

 

 

On ribbon, click the "Activity" tab.

Under Tasks group, select "My Tasks".

 

Step 2: View the List

 

 

Here you can view the list of all tasks that belong to your account of CRM system.

 

Below the ribbon of above screen, you can see a set of tables which contain related records (only one type of records are present in one column).  This table is called grid. On the grid you can quickly see  the main details of the record and also see who created it, when it was created and the subject etc. etc.

 

Note:

If you need to edit any existing record shown in this grid – a quick double-click will launch an editor/form for editing. Click 'Save & Close' when you have done.
