The Project Tasks master data contains information about tasks related to the company's external and internal projects

Each project has its list of tasks, which can be seen on the project master on the Project Tasks (WBS).

The main process for creating new tasks is carried out through the estimation document in structure mode, using Add Project Task to directly include tasks in the project estimation.

 Adding a Project Task

To add a project task, select the Create button from the toolbar. To modify an existing task, double-click the corresponding line. Alternatively, right-click the desired line and choose Edit, or use the toolbar by selecting More actions → Edit.

1. Main Parameters

This tab displays key details about the task, including the associated project and its planned start and end dates. As the project progresses through its lifecycle, the task's actual start and finish dates can also be recorded.

The Description and Project fields are mandatory.

• In the Project field, select the project to which this task is related.
• In the Parent Task field, specify the task that includes this task.
• In the WBS Code field, enter the code assigned to the task.
• In the Description field, type a clear and concise description of the project task. This description will identify the project task in the project task lists.

• Use the Milestone checkbox to mark this task as a milestone within the project.

• Specify the planned start date in the Planned Start Date field and the expected completion date in the Finish field.

• The Start Date (Plan) and End Date (Plan) fields allow you to define the planned duration of the task.

• Once the task has started or been completed, the Start Date and End Date fields can be used to capture the actual dates.

• Use the Details text box to add any relevant information about the task

      2. Employee Tab

The information on this tab is optional.

Click Add to insert a new row. In the Employee column, select the employee assigned to the project task. Click Save to confirm the entry.

      3. Predecessors Tab

Click Add to create a new entry.

Then, select a Predecessor Project Task; this is a task that must be completed (or started) before the current task can begin or proceed. Also, choose its Dependency Type, which defines the relationship between the tasks (e.g., finish-to-start, start-to-start, etc.).

Once the necessary information is entered on the tab:

• Click Save to store the project task and continue editing or adding more details.

• Click Save and Close to save all changes and exit the form.
