Topic-by-Topic Guide

Topic 1

Recurring Target Identification Procedure

Only tasks with real repeated cadence should become recurring.

If one-off items are recurring, weekly conflicts and cleanup cost increase.

  1. Start with only 2-3 core recurring routines.
  2. Observe conflict frequency for one week after setup.

Topic 2

Task Detail Recurring Registration Procedure

Enable 'Register as recurring task' in Task Details and save.

The setting is not applied until you complete save.

Related Screens

Enable recurrence and save to apply the setting.

Topic 3

Recurring-linked Field Setup Procedure

Set title, priority, time, and folder together with recurrence to reduce repeated edits.

Leaving time/folder empty increases miss risk during weekly operation.

Related Screens

Configuring key fields before save keeps recurring management simple.

Topic 4

Recurring Load Review before Weekly Planning

Before adding new weekly tasks, check existing recurring load first.

Place normal tasks into remaining capacity after recurring slots are accounted for.

Topic 5

Recurring Task Retirement Procedure

Clean obsolete recurring tasks monthly to keep weekly screen usable.

If not retired, inactive routines accumulate and blur priority decisions.

Troubleshooting

  • When screen looks different

    Check view mode, date range, and filter state before retrying.

  • When edits are not reflected

    Verify save action first, then refresh the page and check again.
