View Tasks Marked as Key Tasks

A key task is a task that you consider being of key importance to the project. When you mark a task as a key task, its status does not impact any other Open Workbench behavior. Use the Key Tasks tab on the Project Properties dialog to:

• View a list of key tasks on your project
• Revert key tasks to standard tasks

To edit a key task, edit the task's fields in a spreadsheet view, such as the Gantt Chart view.

Follow these steps:

1. Click Project Properties in the application menu.
2. Open the Key Tasks tab.
3. View the following key task data, and click OK:

   ID

   Defines the key task's external ID.

   Name

   Defines the key task's name.

   Status

   Defines the key task's status.

   Values: Not started, Started, or Completed

   Project

   Defines the project name that is associated with the key task.

   Finish

   Defines the date the key task is scheduled to finish.

   Note: You can edit the finish date provided you have not assigned a resource to the task and the task is a fixed duration task.

   Baseline Finish

   Defines the date the key task is scheduled to finish based on the current baseline.
