When adding multiple diary records, be aware that they appear in reverse order. ie the first one you add will appear last and the last one you add will be first.

To add an entry under the 'Briefing' subject, which is available by default, use "Diary" as the subject.

It seems that the task parameter has no effect because the task entry in the briefing menu is created when the task itself was created.
