### **Types of priority**

 

There are four task priorities to choose from:

1\) Urgent

2\) High

3\) Medium 

4\) Low 

 

Urgent and high tasks will be colour code with red upwards arrows. Low priority tasks will have a green downwards arrow next to them. No arrows will be shown if you set medium priority.

### **How to set a task priority**

 

To set a task priority, click into a task from the task list or create a new task. Then simply set a priority, e.g. low/medium. Note that the priorities can be altered at any point in time by clicking into the edit option for a task. Once selected you will see the priority as a coloured arrow next to the task
