Using Bureau Efficiency day-to-day - Task List

The Task List screen shows all the tasks in list form, for the clients selected in the drop-down at the top right of the screen.

Here you can mark tasks as complete, not required, or set automated tasks to run. The system will record who completed the task, date & time etc, under Audit > Task Log.

There are three types of Task: Manual, Payroll and Automatic.

Manual To check these off, you need to select each one and select Mark Task as Complete. If you select Not Required that will also be recorded under Audit > Task Log.
Payroll These tasks take place within the payroll software. Once a Payroll task is run, it will disappear from the Task List and appear under Audit > Task Log.
Automatic These tasks will be removed from the Task List and appear under Audit > Task Log after you select Run Automated Tasks, either here or as part of a Batch Process.
