Monitoring Tasks
Use the two main panels of the Task Manager—the task list and the task event log—to monitor
your tasks.
Monitoring Upcoming Tasks in the Task List
The Task List displays all scheduled tasks in order of creation, and includes basic information
about each task. Although you can’t sort the tasks in any other order, you can reorganize the
columns in the Task List by clicking and dragging the column heads.
The Status column of the Task List shows the current condition of each task:
●
Scheduled
—The task is scheduled to be completed at a future date and time.
●
Executed
—The task has been completed successfully.
●
Executed*
—A recurring task has been completed once and will be repeated at the
scheduled time.
●
Error
—The task has not been completed successfully. (For more information about an
error, double-click the task in the Task List to open the Task Properties window.)
In the menu bar, click
View task
for additional detail about any task in the Task List.
Checking Past Tasks and Events in the Event Log
The Event Log displays detailed information about the Task Manager itself, such as when
scheduled events were modified, deleted, or completed successfully.
By default, task events are listed in the order they occurred, with the most recent event first. To
make it easier to find a specific event, click on the column heads to sort task events. You can also
reorganize the columns by clicking and dragging the column heads.
The Event Log uses icons to show the status of past tasks:
Double-click on an event to see basic information about the event in the Task Properties
window. Click

to see the next event in the list.
