The Tasks Screen

  • On the Navigation Pane at the left, expand the section: Production and click on Tasks

  • You can easily drag a task from one day to the other, or from one department to the other. For example: If you have 2 artists you can easily move tasks between them.

NOTE: You can also rearrange tasks by editing the tasks directly, either from the Job Board or from the Sales Screen:

  • Next, select a Department from the left to be included in the view, and click on the Arrow > button to move it to the right
  • Once you have included all the departments you want to see in your custom view, click on Save

  • You can now select that Custom View from the View menu

Your artist can use the Tasks Screen to see what his or her tasks are for the day and also make comments about the task and tell FastManager if the task is done or not.
