Scheduling Tasks
When you create a new task instance, you can specify the date and time to start the new task. Task instances scheduled to start at a later time are in Scheduled state. You can reschedule tasks anytime before the start time. At the specified start time, the task starts, and the state of the task changes from Scheduled to Active. You cannot manually change the status of a scheduled task or accept scheduled tasks.
My Calendar on the What's Happening Now tab,
scheduled task icon on the task list, and the status property of the task help you identify the scheduled tasks. For information about My Calendar, see
My Calendar.
Use one of the following to schedule or reschedule task instances:
