Tagging a Task

This topic describes the procedure to tag a task.

Tags allow users to organise information by adding self-created keywords rather than storing information in a predefined hierarchical structure, through the Inbox toolbar, context menu, or the task toolbar.

Note: You can customize the tabs displayed in the Inbox, tasks, or activities, to enhance or minimize the number of items displayed. This will reduce the clutter as well as increase the productivity. If you cannot see Tags tab, click on the titlebar. All the tabs, that are displayed on the interface, are shown in the drop-down list as selected. The tabs that are not displayed on the interface are shown as unselected. Select Tags option in the list. To close the Tag tab, clear the check mark of the tab you want to close.

  1. On CUSP, double-click My Inbox. The My Inbox window appears, displaying the personal tasks, by default.
  2. Select the required task from the work list in the Inbox, right-click the task and select Add Tag from the context menu. Alternatively, select the task to be tagged and click on the Inbox task toolbar. A text box along with Tag button is displayed.
  3. Type the required keyword, to identify the tag, in the text box and click Tag.
    The selected task is tagged.
    To view the tags, click the Tag tab on the left side of the Inbox. A list of all the tags related to the work list are displayed. Click a tag and all the tasks tagged by that name are displayed on the right pane.
    Alternatively, you can add or view the tags in the preview section at the bottom of the Inbox, when you click a task in the Inbox. Preview mode should be set by the work list manager while customizing the work list view.
