# View and assign scheduled tasks

# View and assign scheduled tasks {#ariaid-title1}

* Release version: Xanadu

* Updated August 1, 2024

* ![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read

Learn about different ways to view tasks in the Scheduled state​.

## Before you begin

A Work order task is moved to the Scheduled state only when all the following conditions are met:
:
    * The Use scheduled state property is enabled
    * The Assigned to field is not empty
    * The Assigned to or Expected start field changes, and the Expected start value is beyond the threshold (12 hours by default) from current time
    {#view-and-assign-scheduled-tasks__ul_lbq_jxz_3sb}

Exceptions for the Scheduled state flow
:
    * Contractor tasks will not be in the Scheduled state.
    * When an agent time-off event is created and overlaps with the work order task, the task will be moved to Pending dispatch. Similarly, for crew tasks, when the leader has a time-off event overlapping with the task time, the task will be moved to Pending dispatch.
    * If all child work order tasks of the work order are in the Scheduled state, the work order will be moved to Scheduled automatically.
    * When dynamic scheduling is enabled, auto-assign is not available for scheduled tasks. Scheduled tasks are considered for re-assignment or un-assignment.
    * Scheduled tasks appear as blocked time when intelligent task recommendation considers technician availability.
