This page allows you to configure a task set
Details
Workflow can be used to define the tasks that must be completed for an issue to be resolved. This is done by specifying a set of tasks called Task sets that should be added to the issue when it enters a particular state. Each task in the task set can be assigned to a particular person by default, but can be reassigned if desired. For background information on workflow, see Ketura Tour Step 8: Workflow.
Depending on your permissions, you may be able to update the task set’s information.
To make changes to a task set’s details:
-
Make the changes you desire. The Category and Summary fields must be completed to apply the changes.
-
Click the Apply button.
To abandon changes before you have applied them:
-
Click the Reset button. The fields will be restored to their previous values.

Description of table columns
| Task | The id of the task. If you have permission to view the relevant task, the id is a link to the task’s page. |
|---|---|
| Summary | The task’s summary. |
| Assigned To |
The user to whom the task is assigned. If <unassigned> is chosen, the task will not to be pre-assigned to a user. In this case, if the task set is added to an issue automatically because of the configured workflow, the user who caused that to happen by creating the issue or changing its state will, if he or she has permission to assign tasks, be prompted to assign the unassigned tasks. If <user performing action> is chosen, and the task set is subsequently added to an issue automatically due to workflow, the task will be assigned to the user who caused that to happen by creating the issue or changing its state. |
| Planned Work | The planned work of the task. |
| Selection | A checkbox that, when checked, selects the tasks. Selected entries are highlighted with a blue background. You can select all the entries in the current table page by clicking the checkbox in the column’s heading. |
