TPAssist 2007 Key Feature 1: Automated task tree roll-up and summarisation.

The Tree Update capability of TPAssist 2007 provides you with the visual means to track and manage the various requests and activities that fill your day. [See the Demo]


Roll-up of Task Information: The ease at which individual topic status is rolled-up to a centralised view ensures you can quickly see what has to be done and give you instant satisfaction regarding what you have already achieved.

• Task status can get buried in large maps: Topic Task information with-in your map can become buried when you collapse and filter the hierarchy. You may have Priorities, percentage complete, flags and dates assigned to topics, but none of this will be obvious unless you expand the specific tree.



• TPAssist Tree Update (Manual): TPAssist 2007's Tree Update capability rolls-up priorities, percentage complete, dates and flags. Your priority assignments are summarised at sub level and rolled- up to the central topic. Flags will be carried up the tree. And finally, start and due dates will be assessed to give the overall start and due date of all tasks with-in the map.
  


• TPAssist Tree Update (Automated): As well as manually, the Tree Update function is performed automatically whenever TPAssist is used to change the priority, percent complete, Start Date, Due Date or Flag.
  The TPAssist Console is a comprehensive path to all TPAssist features. The Journal Tab is used to capture task status details and your task activities.

Summarisation: TPAssist 2007 has a straight-forward reporting tool that can be used to easily identify and manage your tasks based on due date proximity, priorities and flag.

• TPAssist's summarisation tool is found in the Tree Update tab of the TPAssist Console. From the console we can choose the type of summary and various other options relating to the type of information we want to track.




• The By Proximity Task Summary groups the topics of the map by their due date or start date if the due date is there is no due date for a given task.




• The By Priority Task Summary groups the topics of the map by their task Priority.


• The By Flag Task Summary groups the topics of the map by their Flag map marker.


• TPAssist's summary builder also works with Multimaps. All you need to do is open the map with the sub map linked topics and then turn-on the "Multimap" capability with-in the Tree Update tab of the TPAssist Console.
