Perform a Dry Run

Before you have used Kutano for several weeks it is difficult to understand and visualize how the weekly process will work. That's why we provide a Dry Run function for new sheets which will emulate the steps that happen over a week but perform those steps immediately.

Here is the overall weekly process diagram:

Performing a Dry Run

1. Create a new Sheet. The new sheet will display a yellow instruction panel showing you steps you should take to set up your sheet.
   
2. Click on the button
3. The Status update process dialog will appear
   
   As the dialog states, it has already emulated Step 1 in the process (Reminders sent).
4. Go to your email in-box and locate an email with a subject starting with "[PREVIEW]Reminder"
   
5. On the email, click on the Complete status update button
   You will be taken to Step 2 in the process: Complete status update. This is how your status update form will look when you are asked to submit it each week.
   
6. You can enter your Accomplishments, Goals, Problems, and Notes then click the Save button.
   
7. Now you are at Step 3: Send reports. Again check your email in-box for an email whose subject starts with "Status update report".
   
   If this were a real weekly process, your status report email would contain status updates from all of the members of your team.
