Activity and Reminder Settings
The Activity Settings tab lets you apply color settings to differentiate between activity categories. System default settings use red to indicate overdue activities, blue for high-priority activities, and green to highlight recurring activities.

The Activity Settings tab also lets you specify a default duration for any new activity that you add. You can select an appropriate time interval from the Duration drop-down list.
Note: The duration that you specify here as the default is used by the system when the end user creates a new Appointment type activity. The default duration that appears in the Appointment Details window is automatically taken from this field.
