Resolve relationship

If a task included in standard procedure is deleted, you can specify whether to associate a “Finish - Start relationship” for the corresponding preceding and succeeding tasks.

Go to “Edit Standard Procedure Information” page.
Check the “Resolve Relationship” box to associate “Finish – Start” relationship for the corresponding preceding and succeding task.

Generate sequence number for tasks belonging to the standard procedure

You have the option of entering the sequence number or generating the sequence number automatically for the various tasks in the multiline.

To enter the sequence number manually, enter the “Seq #” field in the “Task Details” multiline.
To generate the sequence number automatically, leave the “Seq #” field blank in all the rows in the multiline.

The system automatically assigns a sequence number to each of them, in the order in which they are entered in the multiline, on clicking the “Create Standard Procedure” pushbutton.

If you wish to insert sub tasks in the multiline and assign sequence number for them, click the “Re - Number” pushbutton to rearrange the existing rows in the ascending order of the sequence number. The system regenerates the sequence number in multiples of five, thereby enabling you to specify the sequence number for the newly added tasks.
