**FAQ:**

**If I mark a task as complete from the agenda, does it update everywhere in Wonderly?** Yes. Any change you make to a task from the agenda — including marking it complete, updating its status, or adjusting its deadline — syncs immediately to your task list and projects across Wonderly.

**Can I create a new task directly from the agenda?** Yes. You can create a task from your AI Agenda the same way you would from any Wonderly document. See \[Create a task from a document]\[link] for more.

**I set a duration on a task but it's not showing the time I already worked on it. Why?** The left field under **Duration** tracks time you've manually logged against the task. It doesn't automatically track time — you need to update it yourself as you work. Click the left field and enter the time you've already invested.
