-> An APPOINTMENT is merely an event scheduled for a particular time and day.
A lunch date, for instance, would be entered as an Appointment. A DEADLINE
is an event for which your office is responsible. It's character is such
that failing to meet it may get you into trouble. A deadline that's abso-
lutely crucial should be entered as a GOTCHA. Training or testing should
be entered as an EXERCISE. The MISCellaneous category is a catch-all.
For instance, if another office is supposed to answer a complaint by
20 May, you would enter that event as Miscellaneous, since you aren't res-
ponsible for it. But if YOU are supposed to answer a complaint by 20 May,
you would enter it as a Deadline.
-> Each entry consists of a date, beginning and ending times, a project and a
short description of the event. 17 lines of remarks may also be attached.
-> A Reminder is an entry reminding you that an Appointment, Deadline, etc.,
is expected at some time in the future. A Reminder must be set at least 1
day prior to the event to which it refers. For instance, you might wish to
be reminded on Monday that you have an important briefing on Friday. Or you
might wish to be reminded that a report is due in a couple of weeks (the
due date of the report would be entered as a deadline, and a reminder could
be set two weeks prior to that date). Each appointment, deadline, etc.,
may have up to 4 reminders linked to it.
-> A Plan is a file that lists the expected events for a project with which
you are involved. The listing contains the anticipated time intervals bet-
ween events. When you enter or change an event's date in the Plan, Multi-
Track will automatically change the dates for related events accordingly.
