Chalk Board
CHALK BOARD for assigning and updating tasks
The tasks to be updated and monitored until completed are listed in the large grid on the left of the screen.  The information in the grid for each task includes the DATE, NAME OF THE TASK, and the STAFF MEMBER ASSIGNED.  The unfinished tasks will be shown with red background, and the completed tasks will be shown in green.  The top text box on the right contains task instruction, generally supplied by the person assigning the task, and the bottom text box contains notes, generally provided by the person to whom the task is assigned and related to performing the task.  The information in both of these latter two boxes can be maintained by either typing or by use of AutoText.  The DISPLAY buttons at the upper right permits showing ACTIVE tasks only, COMPLETED tasks only, and ACTIVE AND COMPLETE tasks.

The button cluster at the top of the screen initiates the following tasks:
●  The ADD TASK button opens a data entry window where the date and time are entered, the task is named, the task is assigned from a staff pick list, and instructions and notes (if any) are entered.
●  The EDIT TASK button opens the same data entry window as does the ADD TASK button, but with the data available for editing.
●  The ASSIGN TASK button permits reassigning the task from a staff pick list.
●  The COMPLETE TASK button changes the task status to complete, and the line item color from red to green.
●  The REACTIVATE TASK button reopens a task formerly designated as complete.  The color is changed back to red.
