Working with Tasks

Tasks are activities that you need to perform in Procura. There are two types of tasks: workflow-driven, which are generated by Procura, and user-specified, which are created by yourself or another user. Many actions trigger a task, such as when you defer a visit confirmation call, or when you cancel a visit. Tasks are created from a variety of locations within Procura, but typically managed from the Scheduling Tasks form. Use this form to create and edit tasks, mark as complete, or forward to another Procura user. You can configure tasks to your preferences.
