Edit the following as required:
Name. The name of the task.
Policy. The policy governing the task. If a summary task is created with
the "Project Task" policy, its policy cannot be changed to "Project Review"
if it has a child task created with the "Project Task" policy. If a leaf
task is created with the "Project Review" policy, its policy cannot be
changed to "Project Task" if its parent task is created with the "Project
Review" policy.
Owner. The owner of the task.
Description. The brief description of the task.
Task Constraint Type. The type of constraint for this task, which
specifies when the task is expected to be completed within the project.
For Non-summary Tasks, values can be "As Late as Possible," "As Soon as Possible,"
"Start No Earlier Than," "Finish No Earlier Than," "Start No Later Than,"
"Finish No Later Than," "Must Finish On," or "Must Start On."
For Summary Tasks, values depend on whether the project schedule is from the start
date or finish date.
Task Constraint Date. Constraint types other than "As Soon as Possible" or "As Late as Possible" have a constraint date.
Task Requirement. Indicates whether this is an optional or mandatory task.
The system's default behavior requires all tasks, even optional ones, to be
completed before the project can be completed. If this isset to mandatory
for a task created from a project template, you cannot change it to
optional. However, when the value is optional, you can change it to
mandatory.
Calendar. You can choose the calendar for scheduling the task. If a task
has a calendar connected to it, that calendar is used to schedule the task.
If no calendar is connected to the task and the task has only one assignee,
the calendar connected to the task assignee's location is considered for
scheduling; otherwise, the "Default Project Calendar" is considered for
scheduling. For example, if a leaf task has a calendar of "7 working days,"
and its summary task has a calendar of "5 working days," if the duration for
the leaf task is 7 days, the duration of the summary task is 5 days.
Needs Approval. Indicates whether this task requires an approval.
Effort Notifications. Click TRUE to enable email notification when efforts
are submitted for approval.
You cannot edit the task duration on this page. See Editing the Task Schedule.
