Okay I've added that to my todo list :) As far I understand you categorize organization by work you usually do in some context if no other task specified or using Misc when there is no appropriate category? Essentially yes. If I'm working on tasks for my company Norang then I set the norang.org Organization task as the default task. I'll work on tasks in norang.org, clocking them in and out and any leftover remaining time goes to the organization task in that file. If I switch contexts to some client's projects then I set the Organization task in that client file as the default task and work on their tasks. Leftover time is then clocked against the client. This way if I work for a client from 10AM-noon and clock in various tasks in the client file I get 2 hours of clocked time for the client even if the individual tasks I clock in only add up to 1 hour 55 minutes. The leftover 5 minutes end up on the organization task for that client and it's a more accurate reflection of where I really spent my time. If I am interrupted by something during that work I create a capture task which automatically clocks in for whatever amount of time that interruption takes and minutes are allocated to the right project when that task is refiled to the appropriate org file.

Hi Richard, Thanks for the feedback :) I'm not really planning an overhaul of the entire document but if you see any errors and omissions please let me know. I update the document approximately monthly with new stable changes to my workflow and the history of changes can be found in the last section with a link to the git archive detailing exactly what changed.

But than I'm loosing concept, thought default task must be set per organization/client file? Would be nice if someone could throw light on this :) Thanks. Hi Yevgeniy, I actually have 3 'Organization' tasks that I clock in -- all at level 2. These are in 3 different org files and are listed in my org-agenda-files variable. My current layout is like this: ,[ todo.org ] | #+FILETAGS: HOME | ... | * Miscellaneous :misc: | ** Organization | ... ` ,[ org.org ] | #+FILETAGS: ORG | ... | * Tuning :tuning: | ** Organization | ... ` ,[ norang.org ] | #+FILETAGS: NORANG | ... | * Administration:admin: | ** Organization | ... ` I used to have a first level * Organization task when I was clocking in by ID but that set up has changed. It's possible I still have references to the old layout in the document that needs to be updated. Sorry about the confusion. Do you have any suggestions on how I can improve the documentation to make this more clear? Regards, Bernt ___ Emacs-orgmode mailing list Please use `Reply All' to send replies to the list.
