<title>Workflow</title>
<p>Managing tasks is very personal. Therefore Endeavour only ships with a default Workflow that can be altered to the needs of the user.</p>
<section>
<title>Task lifecycle</title>
<p>Tasks follow a lifecycle that consists of 3 phases:</p>
<steps>
<item><p>Capture</p></item>
<item><p>Processing</p></item>
<item><p>Execution</p></item>
</steps>
<p>Each phase changes the state of the task, starting from the uncaptured state, leading up to the task completion.</p>
</section>
<section>
<title>1. Capturing</title>
<p>Capturing a task is the act of storing the task in a permanent storage - your hard drive.</p>
<p>Captured tasks go to the inbox, which is the list of unprocessed tasks.</p>
</section>
<section>
<title>2. Processing</title>
<p>Processing a task consists of moving it to an appropriate task list, or doing it right away if it's a trivial task, or even throwing it in the wastebasket if you don't plan on doing it.</p>
<p>Optionally, adding more description, setting an end date, and marking it as important are done in this step.</p>
</section>
<section>
<title>3. Executing</title>
<p>Executing a task is what leads the task to its conclusion.</p>
