Changing Deadlines

Use

You use this function if you want to change the deadlines for a work item at workflow runtime. This dialog box displays all the deadlines of work item processing.

For more information, see Current Dates/Times of a Work Item.

Features

Depending on whether the work item represents a step in the workflow or a single-step task, the deadlines were either specified when this step was defined in the workflow definition or when the single-step task was started in dialog.

The dialog box is split into the following sections:

Deadlines

Start by (latest start)

End by (latest end)

Planned deadlines

Start by (requested start)

End by (requested end)

A monitored deadline shown in blue is in the past. If This graphic is explained in the accompanying text is also displayed, the appropriate action has been initiated (for example, the deadline recipient has been informed).
