    Role required: admin

    Pourquoi et quand exécuter cette tâche

    Child tasks are defined with the same relationships, each lasting for the same duration as the original tasks. All project tasks are set to Pending. Actual duration and the actual start and end dates are reset to null values. The state is set to New and percent complete is set to 0. Administrators can override the Script Include CopyProjectFieldOverride to determine which fields are reset or to change the default values.

    Procédure

    1. Navigate to All > System UI > Script Include.
    2. Open the CopyProjectFieldOverride record.
    3. Add the method to override the method defined in the CopyProjectFieldOverrideSNC script for resetting or defaulting the values.

      For example, to copy partial project:

           /* getResetFieldsForCopyPartialProject method returns the array containing the list of names of fields that need to be erased from the copied project tasks
                    * getDefaultObjectForCopyPartialProject method returns the object containing the key, value pairs of field names and values that need to be set on the copied tasks
                    */var CopyProjectFieldOverride = Class.create();
                    CopyProjectFieldOverride.prototype = Object.extendsObject(CopyProjectFieldOverrideSNC, {
                    getResetFieldsForCopyPartialProject: function() {
                    return ['work_start', ‘work_end’, ‘work_duration’];
                    },
                    getDefaultObjForCopyPartialProject: function() {
                    return {'state': -5,‘percent_complete: 0’};
                },
                type: 'CopyProjectFieldOverride'
                });

      To copy complete project:

      /* getResetFieldsForCopyProject method returns the array containing the list of names of fields that need to be erased from the copied project tasks
            * getDefaultObjectForCopyProject method returns the object containing the key, value pairs of field names and values that need to be set on the copied tasks
            */var CopyProjectFieldOverride = Class.create();
            CopyProjectFieldOverride.prototype = Object.extendsObject(CopyProjectFieldOverrideSNC, {
            getResetFieldsForCopyProject: function() {
                    return ['work_start' ,"work_end","work_duration"];},
                    getDefaultObjForCopyProject: function()
                    {
                        return {'state': -5, ‘percent_complete: 0’};
                     },
                    type: 'CopyProjectFieldOverride'
                  });
