Reopening Tasks

If an Administrator enables this feature, assigners and approvers can reopen or return to a task that they completed. This is useful for the situation where you may have worked on a task or reviewed it, and realize that you need to add or change something.

To reopen a task:

1. In your application, select View, and then Gantt or Task list.
2. Select the task you need to reopen and use the Display field in the view to select the desired schedule. Then select the task you need to reopen and open the Task Actions dialog.
3. From the Actions drop down, select Reopen Task.

   A message displays that you successfully reopened the task. Note that the workflow is set back to the user who reopened the task. For example, if Reviewer 2 reopened a closed task, the workflow reverts to Reviewer 2. At this point, Reviewer 2 can either add to their review and continue the workflow or reject it back to the Preparer.
