This module implements a simple personal to-do list based on tasks. It adds an editable list of tasks simplified to the minimum required fields in the project application.

The to-do list is based on the Getting Things Done methodology. This world-wide used methodology is used for personal time management improvement.

Getting Things Done (commonly abbreviated as GTD) is an action management method created by David Allen, and described in a book of the same name.

GTD rests on the principle that a person needs to move tasks out of the mind by recording them externally. That way, the mind is freed from the job of remembering everything that needs to be done, and can concentrate on actually performing those tasks.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 14.0

Adds a personal to-do list on top of project tasks, using GTD contexts (where you work) and timeboxes (when you plan to do it), with dedicated menus and wizards to move tasks between timeboxes.

This module turns project tasks into a personal to-do list following the Getting Things Done method. On every task you get two extra fields: a Context (the place or situation where the task should be done, e.g. Office, Travel) and a Timebox (the period in which you plan to do it, e.g. Today, This Week, Long Term). New tasks automatically receive the first context in the list as a default.

Two new menus appear under Project: "Tasks (GTD)" shows all open tasks with a Timebox filter applied by default, and "My Tasks (GTD)" shows only your own open tasks. Both screens offer kanban, list, form, calendar and graph views, and you can group or filter tasks by Timebox and by Context. Contexts and Timeboxes themselves are configured in the Project configuration menu, and only project managers can create or edit them.

Two wizards help you keep the list clean: - "Empty Timebox" moves your still-open tasks to the first timebox and clears the timebox on tasks that are done or belong to someone else. - "Plannify Timebox" lets you pick tasks from one timebox and move them into another in one go.

When the module is installed, a notification is posted in the general employees channel.
