Project Event Types

The Project Event Types page lists all the events within a standard project. Project Event Types are categorized by Groups set in the Project Event Groups page.

 

Administrators can:

  1. override the default behavior of the events
  2. determine whether the event should appear on the Project Events, Country Events, and Site Events pages (in each of these modules, you can determine if the event should appear on the Project Calendar)
  3. determine the source of the Target Date and Completed Date

 

The Project Event Groups and Types will appear on the Project Events, Country Events, and Site Events pages. The events will appear in the order that they are displayed on this page unless changed on those pages. All of those pages have a Reset Order button to reset the order of the events to the order that is set on this page.

 

To filter the records, users can select by (1) Groups (Project Events), (2) Display including Project, Country, or Site Events, (3) Active, Inactive, or All, as well as (4) Search for a word or string in the record. To remove all search options, click the Reset Filters button.

 

To add a Custom Event, click the Add New button or edit a record, click , which opens the Project Event module. Custom Events at the Site Level cannot be auto-populated. Values entered for Custom Events at the Site Level can be auto-populated up to the Country and Project levels.
