The green Send reminder email button can be used to send an email notification to the assigned employee with all relevant information.
Note
To send the reminder email automatically, an e-mail address that can send e-mails must be present in the E-mail Accounts module. This means SMTP must be activated for this address and the corresponding settings must be filled in (see here). This address must be identical to the default e-mail address in the basic settings. Furthermore the Augfgaben Erinnerung process starter must be active.
Under this tab you will find an overview of your own tasks. These can be sorted with the filter and then downloaded. Tasks can be edited again, completed or deleted. Additionally, a receipt for the task can be printed here.
Individual employees can also be selected and their tasks viewed via the Employee view in the top right corner. The prerequisite for this is that the corresponding right has been granted beforehand.
The tab Calendar displays the tasks on the day they are due. Completed tasks are marked with a checkmark. Tasks can be revised and moved directly in the calendar. The calendar view allows the team leader to plan individual smaller tasks or to plan over longer periods of time.
In the task, the two options Time recording is mandatory and Time is billed can be marked for time recording. If the two checkmarks are set, the time will be booked automatically when the task is completed. If you specify a time here, the time from the specified time to the time the task is completed will be posted. If no time is specified, 00:00 is used as the start time. The name of the task is taken as the activity in the time recording entry. Changes can be made via the Own time recording overview tab.
