Assigning Tasks to Objects

Prerequisites

You assign tasks to objects to build up task profiles. This is done quickly in Simple Maintenance, since you can assign more than one task at a time using Other Task.

When you assign tasks, you are creating relationships between the task and the other object. This is relationship A/B 007.
