An Activity in CiviCRM is a record of any scheduled or completed interaction with one or more contacts. Examples include meetings, phone calls, emails, event attendances and contributions. You can define additional types of activities in CiviCRM as needed.

Activities undertaken through any of the CiviCRM functions, such as email or Event signup are recorded automatically. Manually recorded Activities can be marked as Completed or Scheduled. Scheduled activities will be listed in CiviCRM Home page when you login.
