I get daily notifications of tasks due for each day. I don’t use the automated call window, but either way, when I put a note into the notepad, the system auto completes (marks through) the existing task. I almost never want to do that. The system should allow me to move the task forward by changing the date and time.

Yes. It should default to just saving the note (just like a call does). You should have the option to simply ‘save note’ or ‘save note and complete task’
