  3. Use the drop-down menu in the “Category” field to select the category you need or select “Add a Category” if you want a new category.
  4. Use the “For Whom” drop-down menu to select the person(s) this Activity is for.
  5. Next, you will want to determine the time frame for your Activity using the drop-down menu for the “When” field. There are quite a few preset options as well as a “More choices” option for creating a customized schedule.
