Through Calendar, you can schedule and track tasks that you need to complete. When you schedule a task, you specify the priority you want to associate with the task, such as high or low priority, and you specify the start date and due date for the task. If necessary, you can type a description for the task.

To help you track the completion of tasks, you can assign a percentage to a task to indicate how complete the task is. For example, when you begin a task, you set it as being 10% complete, and as you get closer to completing the task, you specify it as being 70% or 80% complete.

You can view your tasks by clicking the Tasks button on the navigation bar.
