This manager is Asset centric. It is used with the filtering capability to find all assets of a particular discipline and type, then assign a collection of task models to create planned tasks, one planned task per asset, per task model. The tasks are automatically allocated to the appropriate handover package based on the WBS and PBS/LBS assignments.
The creation of planned tasks - the assignment of tasks models to asset tags - can be performed using the batch assignment (editing) process, or it can be created using the vPlannedTasks import.
The MS Excel spreadsheet needs the asset tags in the first column, then a column for each task model that is to be assigned. For Example, if there were three (3) tasks to assign to all centrifugal pumps, the .xls file would have four (4) columns, the first column would be the asset tag the remaining three (3) columns would be the different task models.
When importing systemization or physical location to an asset/pack/loop based tasks, the systemization or physical location is not updated to the asset/pack/loop task. A message is displayed stating "Tasks with assets/packs/loops will take the tag systemization/location while updating the tag and will ignore any systemization/location columns" while importing.
You can batch edit the planned tasks, with the help of the Overall Complete option only if you have the manage rights to the system.
