Importing Tasks into Schedules
You can import tasks, or partial task data, from text files into a schedule with a status of Pending or Open. For example, if you have a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet with task definitions, you can save the file as a CSV file, then import it into a schedule. You can also use the Import feature to quickly add many repetitive tasks by editing the fields in a CSV file and importing it, rather than creating individual new tasks.
You cannot import tasks into schedules that have a Closed or Locked status.
Note:
Before you import a file to a schedule using the Update option for a closed task, remove the Owner, Assignee, Approver, and Start Date and Time fields from the import file, or an error occurs.
If you import information on an End-User task that has started running, it is reset to Open with Assignee status, and the answers to questions are cleared.
