Using the Task List Selection Menu

The Task List Selection menu gives project managers and users the ability to quickly edit selected task(s).

Note: Project managers can also edit multiple tasks in bulk using the Task List. See Bulk Editing Tasks in the Task List.

Navigate to the workspace for which you want to update tasks.
On the Project Menu, click Tasks, and Task List.
Select the task(s) you want to edit by clicking in the task row for each task. Hold the CTRL key down to select multiple tasks.
Click Selection, then click an option.
The options you see depend on your relationship to the selected tasks, and the way your organization tracks task progress. How your organization tracks task progress is determined by the configuration set by your administrator. For details, see Editing Timesheet Properties.

Important: Your ability to edit tasks is determined by your permissions. If you only have permission to edit some of the tasks you selected, only those for which you have the correct permission will be edited. This means that some of the selected tasks may not be changed in the way you anticipated.
