Tsk - The Task Number will default to the next sequential number for each entry in the Craft field and can not be changed. The Work Order can contain multiple tasks.

Tasks can be sequential (following one another) or parallel (being done at the same time). Tasks are placed in a matrix by describing each Task's predecessors. A predecessor is a Task that precedes a Successor Task in a sequential path. A Task can have multiple predecessors. Only the predecessor relationships need to be defined while building the matrix. The system will automatically determine the successor relationships when the predecessors are defined. The Task matrix will be used by the Scheduling System.

Click on Detail to assign predecessors.
