Assign a Constraint to a Task on the Task List Page
Assign constraints to a task to indicate the items that need to be addressed before work on the task can begin. Constraint details include the type of constraint, its status, who is responsible for addressing the constraint, and the dates by which it is promised, needed, and actually delivered. Icons next to the Date Needed field indicate if the constraint is overdue or needed within the next 7 days.
Use the Constraints detail window to monitor the statuses of all constraints assigned to a task. To only view tasks on the page that have at least one constraint, select Tasks with Constraints from the Constraints quick filter.
To learn more about task constraints, see Understanding Tasks App Concepts.
To assign a constraint to a task on the Task List Page:
- In the object selector, select a project or program.
- In the sidebar, hover over Tasks, and select Task List.
- In the table, select a task or task milestone, and then select the Constraints detail window.
- In the detail window, select Assign, and then select one or more constraints to associate with the current task.
- Select Select.
- All changes made to this page are saved automatically.
- The constraints shown in the Constraints detail window are read-only. Select a constraint name to view and edit it on the Constraints page.
Tips
- You cannot assign a constraint to a private task.
- In the Constraints detail window, select one or more constraints, and then select the Context menu to remove the selected constraints from the task. Select a constraint name to view it on the Constraints page.
- Select the Notes icon next to a constraint to view the notes associated with the constraint. Constraints without notes will not show this icon.
