Did you know? Set up recurring tasks in Raven’s Task Manager
We recently announced updates to tasks and messages in Raven.
There used to be only two types of tasks: one-time and scheduled.
Now there are three.
Introducing the resetting task…
Say you want a frequent reminder to interact with someone on Twitter, but it doesn’t have to be done on an exact schedule. Set up a resetting task!
When adding a task, you can now select three types of tasks using the Recurring Task menu.
One-time task: Select “No” to create a one-time task. This task will not recur.
Resetting task (This one’s new): Select “Yes, reset task upon completion” to create a resetting task. This task will trigger a new task each time the most recent task is completed rather than being triggered by time.
Scheduled task: Select “Yes, create new scheduled task” to create a scheduled task. In Raven, scheduled tasks are tasks that have a regular frequency, such as monthly, weekly or daily. These are triggered by time.
How to create a resetting task
Here are the steps.
- Click the Task Manager icon.
- Click the Add Task button.
- Fill out the task fields and select ”Yes, reset task upon completion” under Recurring Task. The Due In field must be set to 1 day or more.
- Click on the Create Task button.
Huzzah! Enjoy the added functionality.
