Assign deliverables to a schedule

You can associate deliverables with schedules and with the tasks within a phase. For example, a design document can be associated with a development design document task.

You must create schedule deliverables first. After you create schedule deliverables, you assign the deliverables to tasks (see Assign deliverables to a task).

Note: If you are using a master schedule and subschedules, all deliverable operations such as create and delete are available but are relative to the schedule. Schedule deliverables cannot be shared between the master and subschedules.

Procedure

1. Select the schedule in the task tree.

2. Choose Schedule→Schedule Deliverables.

   The Schedule Deliverables dialog box appears.

3. Click Add to create a line in the Schedule Deliverables dialog box. (You can remove a deliverable by selecting it and clicking Remove.)

4. Click the Deliverable Name column and enter a name.

5. Double-click Deliverable Type and select a type from the list.

   The Deliverable Link/URL box displays the real instance of the deliverable, if one exists. For example, if a schedule deliverable of type MSWord is referenced by a task deliverable, when the workflow is launched, the system displays the existing MSWord document name in the Deliverable Link/URL box.

6. (Optional) Click the search symbol to the right of the Deliverable Link/URL box to display a search dialog box and enter search criteria. If the deliverable is found, double-click to copy its value into the box.

7. Repeat steps 3–6 to add another schedule deliverable.

8. Click OK.
