One of the standout features of doogie®PIM is its ability to link data across different modules. This interconnectivity allows for a holistic approach to information management. For example, link a task to a specific note or associate a contact with a particular event on your calendar. By establishing these connections, you create a web of information that enhances context and aids in a more comprehensive understanding of your data.
Linking Between Modules
In doogie®PIM, modules include Documents, Tasks, Calendar, Contacts, Bookmarks, Finances, Resources, Messages, and more.
You can establish links between different modules to create relationships. For example, you can link a task to a specific document, connect a contact to an event in your calendar, or associate a bookmark with a task.
Creating Links
To create a link, navigate to the module that contains the item you want to link.
Select the item and look for the linking options. In most cases, you'll find a "Link" icon.
Select the option to link, and a window will appear allowing you to choose the target item. You can search for the item or select it from a list.
Once links are established, you can easily navigate between linked items. For instance, when viewing a document, you can see and access linked tasks, contacts, or other relevant information. doogie®PIM provides a visual "Related Links" next to each selected item within a module. This makes it easy to identify associations at a glance.
Bi-Directional Linking
The linking feature in doogie®PIM is often bi-directional, meaning that when you link Item A to Item B, Item B is also linked back to Item A. This ensures that the relationship is reciprocal and easily traceable.
Contextual Navigation
Linked information provides context and allows you to navigate seamlessly between related items. For example, if you have a meeting scheduled in the Calendar, you can quickly access the notes, tasks, or contacts associated with that meeting.
Linking for Project Management
doogie®PIM's data linking features are especially beneficial for project management. You can link project-related tasks, notes, and calendar events, providing a centralized location for all project-related information.
Bulk Linking
doogie®PIM allows for bulk linking, by way of a mind map called NoteBoard, enabling you to establish connections efficiently when dealing with multiple items. This is a time-saving feature for those managing large volumes of data. By overviewing your mind flow, gives rise to inspiration from a top-down perspective.
Getting Inspired
By leveraging the data linking features in doogie®PIM, users can create a well-organized and interconnected information ecosystem. This not only enhances productivity but also provides a more holistic view of your data landscape, fostering a comprehensive understanding of the relationships between different elements in your work or personal life.
