Task Priorities

Overview

Task Priorities can be assigned to Tasks on Project, Change, CAR/PAR, and Training forms. When defining a Task Priority, you can define the Name, Description and Type. To modify Task Priorities, select the Task Priorities link (Global Options section) from the Navigator.

Priorities options will be available when defining/modifying the Task in Empower Desktop (Tasks tab).

Task Priorities contain a priority "type". The type can be defined as either Essential or Non-Essential. Rules can be enabled to prevent certain objects from being released (e.g. Changes/ECOs) if all Essential tasks are not complete.

When defining a priority, you can set the following fields/options:

Once all fields/options are set, click the Apply or Add button to create the priority.
