Duration for Suspended, Reopened, and Pre-Work Activities

You can set the duration for suspended, reopened, and pre-work activities manually. This helps while estimating the remaining duration—it shows the additional work that is needed to complete the activity.

Your Administrator must add the Duration field for the Suspend activity, Reopen activity, and Start prework, context layout structures with a Read-Write or Mandatory visibility. When you opens these pages, the application populates the Duration field with the activity’s initial value. You can modify this value manually, however, be aware of these consequences:

• The new pending activity is populated with the value submitted on the Suspend activity page.

• Prework is populated with the value submitted on the Start prework page.

• The reopened activity is populated with the value submitted on the Reopen activity page.
