Managing Tasks
A task outlines an activity that is due at a certain date/time, with a particular priority, status
(state of completion), and a message attached (text or voice). A task can also be used to leave
yourself a memo, in which the content of the message is the main component of interest.
Managing tasks with your voice commands depends upon the Calendar and Task Management
system option. The tasks are managed with Outlook Tasks in Microsoft Outlook, and any
changes that you make with your voice commands will appear on your PC in Outlook Tasks.
Creating Tasks
To create a task
1. Dial the Speech Server extension number. Login if necessary.
2. Say "Task Manager."
3. Say "Create task." Respond to the prompts to make a recording, for example, "Draft A due."
4. When prompted, say the due date, for example, "Friday," or "September 6."
5. The system will save your task unless you say "Make changes." If you say "Make changes,"
you can then have a choice of the following commands:
Checking Tasks
