1. Create a workflow with the following attributes:
   • Name: Notify assignee
   • Table: Project task [pm_project_task]
   • If condition matches: Run if no other workflows matched yet
   • Condition: State is Work in Progress and Assigned to is not empty
     Remarque :

   • Subject: Project task ${number} has been activated and is assigned to you
   • Message:Project task ${number} has been activated and is assigned to you
     • Number: ${number}
     • Short description: ${short_description}
     • Planned start date: ${start_date}
     • Planned end date: ${end_date}
     • Planned duration: ${duration}
