The following tasks will replace your current data:
⚠ This will overwrite all existing tasks. Export first if needed.
Make sure the very first thing you do is install the app by clicking the "⬇ Install App" button in the top-right header. This ensures full offline access and gives ProctoAct its own dedicated workspace — independent of your browser session. Once installed, the app is accessible from your desktop or taskbar and works without an internet connection.
ProctoAct App is a self-contained, browser-based project and task management dashboard. It combines a Gantt-style calendar, a roadmap summary, and a Kanban board into a single Progressive Web App (PWA) that requires no server, no login, and works fully offline after installation. All data is stored locally in your browser.
The top row displays four real-time KPI tiles giving you an instant snapshot of your workload:
Clicking any tile filters the Kanban board to show only that status group.
A compact Gantt-style timeline that visualises all active Pending and In Progress tasks across a Monday-to-Sunday weekly grid. Each coloured bar represents one task, spanning from its Start Date to its End Date.
A horizontally scrollable row of summary cards — one per active Pending or In Progress task. Unlike the Calendar, this section shows your full active pipeline regardless of selected month. Cards are sorted with overdue tasks first, then by nearest due date.
Click "✚ New Task" (top-right header). Fill in Title, Description, Category, Urgency, Start Date, End Date, and Status, then click "Save Task". The task appears immediately across all views.
ProctoAct uses a three-tier category system:
| Category | Colour | Intended Use |
|---|---|---|
| Project | Electric Blue | Formal milestones, deliverables, or initiatives with a defined scope and timeline. Use for work contributing to a named project or workstream. |
| Things to Do | Soft Amber | General to-do items, administrative tasks, reminders, or recurring responsibilities that are not part of a formal project. |
| Action Item | Emerald Green | Specific actions from meetings or decisions requiring follow-up. Typically short-lived and outcome-focused — e.g. "Send report to stakeholder by Friday." |
