Tasks define the specific work employees select when recording project time. Manage reusable tasks in the task library, then add them to the projects where they apply.
Open Activities #
Browse to Admin Jobs Activities.
Notice: Project administration access is required. Your account may use a customized word instead of task.
Create or edit a task #
- Open Admin, Projects, then Tasks.
- Select the action to create a task, or open an existing task.
- Enter the task name.
- Complete any accounting or time-entry fields your organization uses.
- Select Save.
Archive a library task to prevent it from being added to more projects. Existing time entries remain linked to the task.
Add tasks to one project #
- Open the project.
- Open its Tasks area.
- Select one or more available tasks.
- Add them to the project.
- Open a project task to review its comment requirement, rate, budget, and active status. Your account may not use every field.
- Save.
Archive the task on a project to stop employees from recording more time against it. Existing time entries are not deleted.
Assign one task across projects #
Use the bulk task administration action when the same task needs to be added, removed, or updated across multiple projects.
- Open the task.
- Select Add, Remove, or Modify Assigned Projects.
- Filter the project list narrowly.
- Select the target projects.
- Choose the assignment change.
- Review the selected projects and action.
- Save.
Important: A bulk task change can affect time entry for many employees. Select only the projects you intend to change and review the list before saving.
Troubleshooting #
- A task may be missing because the library task is archived.
- A project task may be unavailable because the project-task relationship is archived.
- An employee may not see the task because the project is inactive, outside its active dates, restricted by assignment, or unavailable to that employee.
