Help Using the To Do List Template
The Vertex42™ To Do List template allows you the flexibility to use whatever codes, scales, or abbreviations you want for each of the columns. You can also delete one or more of the columns if you do not need it.
How to Use Autofilter and Sort in Excel
In version 1.1.0, I added a few dynamic ranges that are used to populate the drop-down lists used for the Status and Priority columns. You can customize the items shown in those columns of the To Do List by editing the values in the Ref worksheet.
Status: You can enter values such as "Done" or "In Progress" or abbreviations that you define yourself. You might also use this column to enter the percentage complete such as "50%" or "75%"
Priority: You might want to use a 3-, 5-, or 10-point numeric scale for this column, where 1 is the highest priority. Currently, the Priority column uses conditional formatting to highlight "High" red and "Low" blue.
PICK: This is an acronym that stands for Possible, Implement, Challenge, or Kill. See the PICK Chart page for more information about this useful lean six sigma technique. If you don't need this column, just delete it.
Due Date: Enter values in date format. If the due date is earlier than today's date, the conditional formatting condition will make the date red.
Owner: The person assigned to this task, or the person responsible for seeing that this task is completed.
Project/Task: A short description of the task to be completed.
Notes: Add notes for more clarity or special instructions, comments about sub-tasks completed, problems, etc.
