Overview

The Daily To-do email is an interactive email which can arrive in your inbox every morning. Use the email to stay up to date about tasks assigned to you and overdue tasks created by you.

You can edit your email notification settings so that you receive or stop receiving the Daily To-do email.

Daily to-do emails are only sent to a users primary email even if they have selected a secondary email for email notifications.

The Daily To-do email is made up of two sections:

Tasks for Today—shows active tasks which are assigned to you and whose due date meets one of three criteria: today’s date falls between the task’s scheduled start and due dates, today’s date is one of the start or due dates, or the task is overdue (the scheduled due date has already passed).
Overdue Tasks Created by You—shows active tasks which you created and whose due date has passed. Tasks in this section are not necessarily assigned to you, but they were created by you.

Both the “Tasks for Today” section and the “Overdue Tasks Created by You” section can contain up to six cards. Each card shows information related to the task, you will see:

The task’s title. 1
Options to postpone the task for one month 2 or mark the task as complete 3. The option you see depends on which section the card is in.
A link to the Folder or Project the task is located in 4 (the link appears only if the task is in a Folder or Project).
Options to reschedule the task, or clear the task’s scheduled dates 5. The option you see depends on which section the card is in.
The task’s scheduled due date (this appears in red if the task is overdue).
A paperclip icon in the task’s upper right-hand corner (if the task has attachments).

At the top of each section you will also see the option to “Open in Wrike” 6. Click this link to go to the Wrike Workspace and see a full list of the tasks that meet that section’s criteria.
