What are Task Templates?

You can predefine the Tasks to be created for CR based on certain criteria (Owner Workgroup, Change Type, Category and Change Category). If Owner Workgroup, Change Type, Category and Change Category as specified in Task Template Configuration match with newly created Change Record, Tasks are created automatically and appears in DRAFT mode under the Relationship tab of the Change Record.

You can configure, modify and remove Task Template. Task can be of three types: Implementation, Post Implementation, and Rollback.

  • If Implementation Task is successful, Post Implementation Task is initiated and Rollback is cancelled. 
  • If failure occurs in the Implementation Task, Rollback Task is Initiated and Post Implementation is cancelled. 

Sequence of the Task can also be predefined using the dependency. You can also create new Draft Task on the CHANGE RECORD DETAILS page. For more information, see Creating Tasks for Change Records.

To configure Task Template:

  1. Select Change > Configuration > Task Template > ADD NEW. The TASK TEMPLATE  page is displayed.
  2. On the TASK TEMPLATE page, select the Tenant and fill in the other required details at left pane.
  3. Under the CRITERIA and DETAILS section, fill in the other required fields . For more information about the fields on the TASK TEMPLATE  creation page, see Field Description.
  4. Click SUBMIT. A new Task Template is created.

    • For Normal, Standard, and Expedited Change Type, Task is initiated once the CR is approved.
