How to alter tasks in bulk

Administration › Alterations › Alter Tasks lists tasks across your sites — responsibility, start, end, frequency, interval, assets and days before / after — so you can change many at once.

Alter Tasks with tasks selected and the change buttons
Alter Tasks.

Steps

  1. Filter the list and tick the tasks. Extract downloads the list.

  2. Pick the change:

    • Responsibilities — move them to another responsibility title (or add a new one).
    • Start Date / Finish Date.
    • Change Day of Month — the day a monthly task runs (up to the 28th).
    • Shift Planned Task — moves the next planned date past a date you choose.
    • Days Before / Days After — the window for entering results.
    • Frequencies — frequency and interval.
    • Activate Tests / De-Activate Tests — every test on the task.
    • Replicate — copy a task’s locations to another task from a PPM list.
  3. Then click Run Schedule to re-plan the selected tasks. BRS first checks for missed visits — nothing is saved while checking — and shows them by site and task. Run them all, or only the tasks with no missed visits.

One site

For one site, change tasks on Customise Site › Tasks and re-plan in Run Site Planner.
