Task List

The Task List provides a central place to view and control Tasks within Duet.

Task List is available from the System Menu as any users who only have Provider rights (they are not Service Ticket Controllers) do not see the full Service menu.

Service Menu

When using the task list it is important to understand the settings in Task Types

The settings in task types will affect the Task Status and Item Menu views in the task list. The label and appearance for some task may also differ.

For Example, If if you turn off the Open Requirement, then the Open state will be skipped. If Open is required, it may be set as Travel or Preparation and would therefore be labeled as such.

The task list is grouped into sections based on the current status of the task in its progress to completion.

The icon will expand a branch within the ticket list.

The icon will collapse a branch within the ticket list.
