Managing Tasks › Task Properties

Task Properties

Once you have created the task, you can define a number of additional characteristics for it including dependencies on other tasks and associated risks and issues using the Task Properties pages. To view this page, select the task's name from the list on the Project: Tasks: Task List or Project: Tasks: Work Breakdown Structure page.

You can also use this page to view and define the task's general properties and to assign staff to the task. If your company uses an earned value methodology for project tasks, your CA Clarity PPM administrator can add the Earned Value section to the page. This section does not display on the page by default.

Note: Contact your CA Clarity PPM administrator or see the Studio Developer's Guide for more information.

From the Task Properties page, you can define the task's dependencies and associated requirements.
