ORGANIZING YOUR TASKS WITH THE TO DO LIST


Responding to a Group To Do assignment
When you receive a Group To Do notice in your Inbox, you can open it to see whether the person who sent it expects you to respond.

If there are action bar buttons in the open notice that include options such as Respond, Respond with Comments, or Request Information, the sender expects a response (such as accept or decline).

To respond to a To Do notice

1. Open the notice in your Inbox or To Do.

2. Click the Respond or "Respond with Comments" action button in the action bar, and do one of the following:
If you want to...Do this
Accept the requestSelect Accept.
Decline the requestSelect Decline.
Send the request to someone elseSelect Delegate, then specify the person to whom you want to send the notice.
Propose a new dateSelect "Propose New Date," then specify a new date(s) .
Mark the request completedSelect Completed.
3. (Optional) If you clicked Respond with Comments, enter your comments.

4. (Optional) Select "Keep me informed of updates" if you want to continue receiving information about the notice.

5. Click Send. Notes sends a response e-mail message to the sender and adds an item to the To Do and Calendar views. If you delegated the item, Notes also sends the request to the person you specified.

Tip You can also respond to Group To Do notices by selecting the To Do notice in To Do and clicking the Actions - Accept, Decline, Delegate, or Propose New Date action button in the action bar. To add comments or stay informed of updates, select the appropriate option when prompted.

To respond to a repeating To Do

If you receive a notice for a repeating Group To Do and you want to accept only some of the instances, you must first accept the notice (Notes adds all instances to the To Do list), then open each instance you don't want to accept and decline.
