In the GroupWise client, a quick task/follow-up flag option is available to the left of an item icon. This allows you to click the flag icon and “flag” an item to signify that you want to follow-up on it. This option is not available for discussion threads, proposed appointment lists, or the summary calendar. When the item is flagged, it also appears in the Tasklist folder. When you click the flag icon, it cycles through the following states:
Flagged
Completed
Unflag
If you are running GroupWise Mobility Service 2.1 or later, and your mobile device supports flagging, the flag state will sync to your device. Because some mobile devices only support the flagged and unflagged states, when an item is marked as completed on these devices, it shows as if the flag is cleared; however, it shows as completed in the GroupWise client and other devices that support all three flag states.
In the GroupWise client, you can use Ctrl+t to toggle between the three flagged states. If you right click the flag, you can perform the following actions:
Assign a due date to the item (Section 5.5.1, Setting a Due Date)
Set a completion percentage for the task (Section 5.5.2, Changing the Completion Percentage)
Set an alarm notification (Section 5.5.3, Configure/Set Alarm)
Set multiple options at once (Section 5.5.4, Quick Tasklist Options)
Remove the flag from the item (Section 5.5.5, Removing an Item from the Tasklist)
Change the folder view (Section 5.5.6, View as Tasklist/View Details)
