Defining Task Properties

After you create a Task specification, you can specify its properties, including the task duration and a checklist. All of the properties are optional.

To specify task properties:

  1. Go to the Task specification editor Properties tab.

  2. In the Duration (in days) field, enter the estimated duration of the task.

  3. In the Allowed User Group field, enter a user group name to restrict UIM users who can be assigned the task.

  4. Select the Is Milestone check box if you want the task to serve as a milestone in UIM. Milestone activities are displayed as diamonds in Gantt charts.

  5. In the Checklist field, click Select.

    The Select Checklist dialog box appears.

  6. Select a checklist and click OK.

    The Checklist field is updated.
