Next Action view - GTD

Post by StevanD »

Hello,

It would be great to have the Next Action views, based on GTD system.
I know there are a lot of things in GTD, but the focus on the first next action is maybe one of the most significant and widely used technique from GTD and I know some software that has this option, so EPIM should consider it too cause it would highly increase its popularity among GTD geeks (like myself and many others out there).
So, there would be one default view to choose which would show the Project (e.g. a Root task) and the First physical subtask under the Project, while all other subtasks would be hidden in that Next Action view.
It should be allowed to define some "task" as the Project, cause it can happen that Root project consists of several Subprojects and their subtasks, so these Subprojects needs to be also treated as the Projects with their next actions.
The elementary idea is in the screenshots:
1. shows the projects with all their tasks (actions)
2. shows how that "next action" view would look like in Consolidated view

*Suggestion for EPIM overall when doing its marketing to new users is to enhance more options for GTD and to specify that software supports GTD.
