Selecting a calendar type for your escalation

Change the calendar type for an escalation by modifying the duration properties of the human task.

This task assumes that you have created a human task for which you have defined an escalation. The Details tab on the Properties view of the escalation provides you with fields to set the time-limits after which the escalations will be triggered.

When defining the escalation for your human task you decide that you want to use a different calendar. The calendar type is set at the level of the human task, and so you must follow these steps to change the type:


Procedure

  1. Change the focus from the escalation to the human task itself. In the Human Task editor click the Name field at the top. This shifts the focus from the escalation to the human task allowing you to set task level options.

  2. Select the Duration tab in the Properties view.

  3. Choose the type of calendar you want to use in the Calendar type field.
  4. Save the task. Press Ctrl+S.
  5. Return the focus to the escalation. In the Human Task editor click the escalation that you are configuring. On the Details tab of the Properties view you will see that the Calendar type has changed.
