Migrating from Daybook to Tasks
If you are an existing Daybook user, you need to arrange for the migration of your current tasks and templates from Daybook to Tasks. This is a very simple process, we will contact you to discuss your migration and arrange a mutually convenient date.
What do I need to do?
It is vital you complete the following before you migrate to Tasks:
- Review all your outstanding tasks in Daybook - Complete as many of your outstanding tasks as possible to ensure only tasks that require actioning migrate.Important - Do not forget to review any outstanding tasks allocated to inactive staff. Any outstanding tasks assigned to inactive staff should be either completed or reassigned to an active staff member as appropriate.Training Tip - You may find downloading the Daybook to Tasks Migration Checklist Report can help with this, see Daybook to Tasks Migration Checklist Report in the Search and Report Help Centre for details.
-
Review outstanding Announcements - Announcements do not migrate to Tasks. Make a note of any Announcements that you wish to recreate in Tasks after migration.
Training Tip - You may find downloading the Daybook to Tasks Migration Checklist Report can help with this, see Daybook to Tasks Migration Checklist Report in the Search and Report Help Centre for details. - Review all your Task Templates in Daybook:
- Tasks Templates with a default recipient migrate to Tasks, check your task templates for a recipient if you wish to keep them:See Task Templates in the Daybook Help Centre for details.
- Tasks currently only permits the recording of a limited range of clinical terms, any Task Templates that contain terms not included on the permitted list have their clinical terms removed, see Administrative Codes for the list of available clinical terms. You may want to review your Task Templates and update or remove any clinical terms attached prior to migration.Important - During migration, if there are any outstanding tasks with 'On completion, add to medical history' selected in Daybook, if the clinical term is not on the Administrative Codes list the clinical term is removed from the task.
You should review your Task Templates before you migrate to Tasks to ensure the templates migrated are accurate and appropriate, updating and deleting as required.

Review existing Staff Groups - Review, update and, where necessary, create Staff Groups to enable the most effective allocation of tasks and the set-up of template quick lists. Where a member of staff is in more than one group, task templates are offered in the following order: the first template in each staff group the staff member belongs to, then the second template from each group, then the third and so on.
