Burden Schedule Task Assignment Options

A burden schedule is specified at the project type, project, or task level. When you change the burden schedule, you can propagate the change from the project to all existing tasks. You can change the burden schedule assignment on the project and tasks independently.

  • Assign the burden schedule to new tasks only

  • Assign the burden schedule to all tasks

  • Assign the burden schedule to tasks with previously assigned schedule

Assign Burden Schedule to New Tasks Only

The changed burden schedule is applied to new top tasks only. New subtasks always inherit the burden schedule assignment from the parent task. The burden schedule change doesn't affect the existing tasks or tasks with an existing override.

Assign Burden Schedule to All Tasks

The changed burden schedule is applied to all existing tasks. Existing burden schedule overrides don't change.

Assign Burden Schedule to Tasks with Previously Assigned Schedule

The changed burden schedule applies only to existing tasks that have the same burden schedule that was assigned to the project before this change. The changed burden schedule isn't applied on tasks with an existing burden schedule override.
