Opening Pending Tasks Early

When administrators create tasks or Task Types, they can allow the assignee to open a task prior to its scheduled start time. The task must have the Pending status and all of its Finish-to-Start predecessor conditions must have been met before you can open it. If an administrator has set this option, Open Task displays under the Actions menu.

Note:

If any of the Finish-to-Start predecessor conditions have not finished successfully for the Pending task, this option is not displayed.

To open a task early:

  1. From the Task Actions page, select a Pending task, and select Actions, then Open Task.
  2. Update the task as required.
