Complete, edit or delete an Organiseme task in Google Calendar
Introduction

With the integration of Organiseme with Google Calendar all Organiseme tasks with a due date are synchronized to Google Calendar and displayed in the top row as all-day tasks.

You can edit tasks in Google Calendar or mark them as complete - all changes will be synchronized to Organiseme. You can even create new tasks - also they will automatically be added in Organiseme.

In the following is described how to edit the different elements of an Organiseme task in Google Calendar. How to add a new task are described here.

In Google Calendar you can even set a due time. First you need to un-check the "All-day" option and then select a time from the drow-down list. Yet please be aware that the due time is not synchronized to Orgraniseme since this is not offered by Google. As a result, the due time is overwritten with the next automatic synchronization from Organiseme - latest after 10 minutes.

So for tasks synchronized from Organiseme the "All-day" option is the best.

Change task list

You can move the task to another Organiseme task list. Just click on the current task list. Then a pop-up menu is opened where all your Organiseme task lists should be listed, together with at least one Google Task task list. By selecting another Organiseme task list you directly move the task to this list.

Please do not move the task to a non-Organiseme task list. This change will not be synchronized to Organiseme, and so in Organiseme the task is still assigned to the former task list. This might lead to synchronization issues for this task.

For completed tasks the button turns into "Mark incomplete" - so by pressing the button you can always set a completed task back to incomplete.
