User Manual - How to insert the duplicate of task group

To insert the duplicate of task group follow the steps below:

1. Go to Task List or Calendar view, right click on required task group on Task Groups panel or select Task Tree view and right click on required task group on Task Tree grid
2. Select “Insert copy of task group…” from drop-down list


OR



3. Open “Task group” drop-down box, select task group that you want to copy and click “Ok”.

4. Check “Start date” option, select “Start date” or “Finish date” from drop-down list and select required date from corresponding drop-down box. For example, you select “Start date” and some task of duplicated task group has 01/10/2007 Start Date, 03/10/2007 Finish Date and 04/10/2007 Due Date. When you select new start date, e.g. 03/10/2007 , task finish and due dates will be postponed for the difference between new and old start dates. In our example new finish date is 05/10/2007 and new due date is 06/10/2007 . The same situation is with all tasks of duplicated task group.

5. Check ‘Copy permissions’ option to save permissions assigned to task group while duplicating it and click ‘Ok’ button



Note:

• If ‘Copy permissions’ option is unchecked, duplicated task group will inherit the permissions from task group it is inserted into
• ‘View’ permission of duplicated task group is inherited from task group it is inserted into. For example, particular resource or role is allowed to view task group 'Stage 2'. If it is duplicated to 'Project 1' task group with denied 'View' permission for this resource or role, then 'Stage 2' task group will be invisible for this resource or role.
