What are the Categories for Tasks
Juan Carlos Gonzalez-Najera
via web
I see a drop-down in the Add Task section, but for the t3x domain the drop down is empty. I looked in the Admin section but there does not seem to be anything there.
Are there already populated Categories? If not, can I create them?
Thanks,
Juan Carlos

PS: I added a status code called "task.category", and it does appear in the list of status codes. However, the drop-down for Categories in Tasks still does not contain any data.

The categories are under the Administration menu, look for "Manage Budget Categories", which gives you a little hint of what we plan to use these for eventually! Example:

Ah! Very interesting. Now that I know this, I successfully created what I needed. And thinking of it, it makes perfect sense that you can assign a budget type to each task.
Very clever. Thanks,
Juan Carlos

Eventually we will do something interesting with these. For the moment, you can sort by the budget code in the task list.
Don't forget when setting up shots that you can set up one shot, and then use the copy shots feature.
Cheers,
Cameron

Thanks. Where is the Copy Shot feature? I didn't know there was one.

Its on the Shot page. It copies all the shot details including tasks, elements, and element tasks.

Extremely cool. I realized this afternoon how handy that would be to have, and now I see tat you already thought of it.
Thanks again.
