In
ContactsLaw, most
activities are started singularly. In some situations, however, one process might lead to the creation of a sequential workload of several other
tasks. Likewise, a
member may see a series of related tasks on their list and decide to complete them in order.
In such scenarios, tasks can be queued. You can add tasks to the queue by selecting several and choosing the 'enqueue selected tasks' action from the context menu. Additionally, some activities can enqueue tasks for you; for example,
document registration and the
payroll activity.
When two or more tasks are in the queue, the activity bar (displayed on all activity windows) will show the position and size of the queue. Cancelling an activity while there is a queue will also cancel the remainder of the tasks in the queue. Any new tasks created during the process will remain on the task list until they are completed. By right-clicking the queue indicator, you can also choose to skip the current task or skip the remaining tasks in the queue.
