From Milestones
Navigate to the Milestones within an individual Matter.
Milestone Tasks can have multiple action options so you MUST always use a right click to be able to view all the options.
You will only be able to complete tasks by right click or using the Actions in the Information panel.
You will not be able to complete document tasks, key date tasks or File Review tasks from Milestones (see Tasks below)
From Tasks
Navigate to the Tasks within an individual Matter
Tasks show a list of Tasks on the matter without the Milestones, all types of tasks will be displayed here.
If you try to use the complete task option where there are multiple action options you will receive an error message
As you can see there are so many different ways that task reminders can be added and completed that it makes MatterSphere flexible enough that you can add one whatever you may be doing and whatever area of MatterSphere you are in.
