Dear Org-Users,
I have a problem to archive my tasks. What should the row ":ARCHIVE:"
look like, so that my "Task One" will be archived under "Tasks - Client
1" (see example below)?
Thanks a lot!
Karl
---------------------------------------------------------------
My structure in gtd.org:
---------------------------------------------------------------
* Tasks
** Client 1
*** DONE Task One
:PROPERTIES:
:ARCHIVE: %s_archive::* Tasks ???????
:END:
*** TODO Task Two
** Client 2
*** TODO Task Three
---------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------
gtd.org_archive should look the same:
---------------------------------------------------------------
* Tasks
** Client 1
*** DONE Task One
---------------------------------------------------------------

:ARCHIVE: %s_archive::** Client 1
should work.

Bastien,
thanks for your reply! I think this works if there is already an entry
"Client 1" in the file gtd.org_archive. But if the task is the first one
that should be archived, org doesn't know that this should be on the
second level:
* Tasks
** Client 1
Is there a way to tell org, that there should be a first level called
"Tasks" and a second called "Client 1"?
Regards,
Karl

Bernt's setup describes how to do this.

Thanks for your reply!
I think this is not what i am looking for. Quote from Bernt: "This
ensures that any level 2 task that I archive from this heading (I
archive by subtree) gets saved in the archive file under the appropriate
level 1 heading.."
My problem is, that i have level 3 tasks.
---------------------------------------------------
file: main.org
---------------------------------------------------
* Tasks
** Client X
:PROPERTIES:
:ARCHIVE: %s_archive::** Client X
:END:
*** DONE Task Client X
** Client Y
:PROPERTIES:
:ARCHIVE: %s_archive::** Client Y
:END:
*** DONE Task Client Y
---------------------------------------------------
file: main.org_archive
---------------------------------------------------
* Tasks
** Client A
** Client X
** Client Z
* Whatever
---------------------------------------------------
The first Task (Task Client X) will now be archived correctly. But only
because there is already a heading "Client X" in my archive file (and
only one heading "Client X"). The second task will be archived at the
end of the archive file, but not under the first level heading "Tasks".
With the current setup i have to make sure
- that there is already a heading for every client in my archive file and
- that there is only one heading with that name
It would be great if i could tell org, that my level 3 tasks should be
archived under * Tasks -> ** Client X, so that Org will create the
heading "client X" itself (and the heading "Tasks", too, if it doesn't
already exist) at the right position in my archive file.
Any ideas?
