Tasks can be Updated and Created in the same upload. In the example below, three tasks updated their Task Names and five additional tasks are added in the same upload.
Sequential Task Numbers: The order in which you enter the Tasks on the sheet determines its order in Oracle. It is important that the parent tasks are created first before the child tasks, therefore, they should be entered in accordance with their correct hierarchy level on the sheet. You MUST complete all the Tasks in a branch before starting on a new branch. See below for an example:
The Oracle REST web service will not support updating the Parent Task Number. There will be an ‘Accepted’ message on the sheet. An error message to indicate the update request has failed will not be displayed. More4apps recommends updating the Parent Task Number from the Oracle form.
To delete existing Tasks, More4apps recommend downloading the Project first to have all the existing Tasks downloaded to the sheet.
To delete Tasks, the ‘Task Upload Action’ must have the ‘Delete’ action.
If a parent task is deleted, all the child tasks associated with the parent task will be deleted.
Once the desired Tasks are marked for Delete, upload the changes to Oracle.
The ‘Deleted’ status for ‘Tasks Status’ is returned to the sheet if the Tasks successfully deleted from Oracle.
