Set Up Note and Task Categories

Modified on Sun, 27 Sep at 12:52 AM

Notes and tasks pile up fast. Categories keep them sorted, so your team can find the call log or the HR follow-up in seconds.

Summary

Note Categories are set for each type of record: Crew Member, client, job, offer, timesheet, task or invoice. Task Categories group tasks by area, such as HR or Payroll. Task Category Statuses add steps within a category, such as Interviewed or Hired under HR.

How to do it

  1. Go to Settings › Code Tables › Note Categories and click Add Record.
  2. Choose the type of record the category is for, then type the name and a description.
  3. Go to Task Categories to add a category for tasks.
  4. Go to Task Category Statuses to add steps, and pick the category each one belongs to.

That's your categories set up. Your team will see them next time they add a note or task.


Tips

  • Keep each list short, so people pick the right one quickly.
  • Use the description to say when to use the category.
  • Categories such as No Show and Call Log work well alongside a shared note template. See Add notes to a record.
